For use with the Iridium 9555 and the Iridium Extreme®, the ASE Premium Passive Antenna Kit delivers exceptional reception performance for permanent in-building or marine applications. This antenna is designed for free-air operation, no ground plane.
Iridium satellite phones were designed to operate with a passive antenna, either an element attached directly to the handset, or a remote aerial connected with a short length of coaxial cable. A signal loss of more than 3dB in a remote antenna's connecting cable degrades performance due to attentuation of both the received and transmitted signals. A 3dB loss corrseponds to approximately 20m of LMR600 or 6m LMR240 coaxial cable, lengths that clearly restrict the mounting options for the antenna using standard down-leads.
