PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS
L-com HK5817H-120 5.8 GHz Horizontally Polarized Sector Antenna Array
The L-com HK5817H-120 is a sectorized antenna array comprising three 120° horizontally polarized antennas and a mounting system. Designed for 5.8 GHz wireless infrastructure, it provides a platform for point-to-multipoint coverage around a central installation site.
Key Features
- Exact model: HK5817H-120.
- 5.8 GHz antenna array with a published 17 dBi gain designation.
- Three 120° horizontally polarized sector antennas.
- Multi-feed configuration identified in the manufacturer catalog.
- Array mounting system included.
Sectorized Coverage
The three-sector arrangement is intended to provide coverage around the installation when properly positioned and connected. Actual coverage depends on antenna alignment, terrain, installation height, radio configuration, and the complete RF link budget.
Outdoor Mounting
The Flytec listing describes outdoor construction with plastic radomes, stainless steel mounting components, and individually adjustable antenna tilt. Verify the supplied hardware and mounting requirements against the installation plan.
System Integration
Use a verified RF design for feeding the sectors. Confirm the supplied connector arrangement, operating bandwidth, impedance, and power limits before selecting radios, cables, or RF distribution components.
Ideal Applications
- 5.8 GHz WISP infrastructure.
- Sectorized point-to-multipoint base stations.
- Wireless broadband coverage around a central site.
Compatible Products
The HK5817H-120 requires an RF system designed for its horizontally polarized sectors and supported operating band. Confirm the exact supplied feed arrangement before choosing equipment.
- Verify the full frequency range, impedance, and RF power rating.
- Confirm connector type, polarity, and total connector count.
- Select cables and protective components for the operating frequency and power.
- Match the remote antennas' polarization to the intended link design.
Important: Do not assume that the three sector feeds are the spatial streams of a 3x3 MIMO antenna. Likewise, do not connect radio outputs together or add a splitter without a verified RF distribution design.
The exact model is HK5817H-120. Do not substitute compatibility information from HK5817H-120NF or four-sector 90° array models.
