Active Monopole Antenna

AM-741R incorporates a low-noise preamplifier

9 kHz to 60 MHz

AM-741R is an active monopole antenna for EMI testing from 9 kHz to 30 MHz

Active Monopole Antenna

The AM-741R is designed for radiated emissions testing below 30 MHz and includes:

  • Telescoping rod: Adjustable from 23 cm to 105 cm (approx. 41 inches for compliance with most standards)

  • Low-noise preamplifier: Enhances signal sensitivity and SNR

  • Power Indicators: RF ON/OFF, battery low, amplifier saturation, and charging status

  • Mounting: 1/4"-20 threaded hole for tripod mounting (compatible with Com-Power AT-220)

Applications

Compliance with standards such as:

  • MIL-STD-461 (RE102)
  • RTCA DO-160 (Section 21)

  • CISPR 25 (Automotive)

  • Other sub-30 MHz emission tests

Grounding & Installation

  • Standard Grounding: Counterpoise must be bonded to the ground plane where the EUT is installed

  • MIL-STD 461 Grounding:

    • Output cable shield must be grounded via metallic bracket

    • Ferrite (20–30Ω @ 20 MHz) must be centered between bracket and antenna

    • Optional AMS-741 Grounding Kit available, includes:

      • Ferrite-fitted cable

      • Grounding bracket

      • Elbow adapter
