GD58-29

Hi all!

I am totally happy men today – someone finally posted undercover pictures of one of most used antennas for 5ghz pac wireless gd58-29 gird. As you can see this antenna have very interesting cover of the feed, this exact shape can’t hide much and i was 99 percent sure that there is a dipole hidden inside. And now i finally can see this thanks vesuviustreamline on the mikrotik.dupnica.net forum.

The feed is separated in two parts first is the dipole and second is matching/symmetrization

In the middle you can see the coax connected to the dipole half, the other side of the dipole is connected to the outer tube.
For symmetrization the coax line the coax line continues to the second part of the tube – after the dipole, there it form quarter wave match section, and on the top coax is connected again to the tube on the top. This symmetrization section gives us the strange form of the dipole cover.
