Electrical Downtilt Control

Electrical downtilt for each band can be controlled separately. Tilt indicator(s) are covered by removable transparent cap(s).

Manual Electrical Tilt (MET) Control

A coloured knob at the end of the tilt indicator allows change of the tilt without need of a tool. The knob colour is identical to the corresponding connector ring colour. To access the knob, remove the cap by turning it counter-clockwise. It is re-installed by opposite rotation. Do not remove the transparent cap(s) from the antenna.

Remote Electrical Tilt (RET) Control

The remote control of the electrical tilt is managed by a Multi-Device Control Unit (MDCU) or a Multi-Device Dual Unit (MDDU) inserted in the bottom of the antenna. A single actuator individually controls the tilt of each band (no need for daisy chain cables between the bands). This module does not add any additional length to the antenna. For RET control, the transparent caps must be in place and locked. The tilt angle indicators always remain visible and the antenna still has manual tilt control (manual override).

RET-Ready antennas are delivered with the RET Actuator (MDCU or MDDU) already installed and pre-commissioned with all antenna parameters. Every RET device is factory configured and calibrated so the antenna is ready to be used once delivered to the site which means that there is no need for further installation of RET devices or for programming their configuration or for running a calibration process.

RET-Ready Actuator (one per antenna)

Multi-Device Control Unit (MCDU)

The MDCU is an electronic module that allows the remote control of the electrical downtilt (RET) in Amphenol antennas with factory embedded motors. Refer to ordering options.

Multi-Device Dual Unit (MDDU)

The MDDU allows two separate RET Controllers to independently drive the RETs in antennas with factory embedded motors (for antenna sharing or two technologies). Refer to ordering options.
