R&S®RO129 Antenna Rotator At a glance The R&S®RO129 is designed as a moving rotator. The rotator housing, together with the antennas mounted along the elevation/polarization axis, rotates around a fixed mast. This design allows other, fixed antennas (e.g. DF antennas) to be installed above the rotator. The R&S®RO129 antenna rotator is used to position multiple antennas in the azimuth and elevation/ polarization direction. To mount antennas on the rotator, two identical flanges are provided at both ends of the elevation/polarization axis. The rotator has a fixed center section, which serves as...

R&S®RO129 Antenna Rotator Benefits and key features Flexible remote control The R&S®RO129 antenna rotator is intended exclusively for remote control and does not incorporate any control elements. It is controlled via a watertight MIL connector on its bottom side. The rotator is fully remote-controlled via a control cable either from an R&S®GB127S antenna control unit and an R&S®RD127 rotator control unit or from an R&S®FU129 antenna filter unit. Easy integration into (existing) monitoring systems Due to the flexible remote control via either the R&S®GB127S or the R&S®FU129, the R&S®RO129 antenna...
