EZ 70 Antenna Mast Bracket for Small Vent Pipe 2.5" to 3.75" OD Mount
3 Star Inc
Made in the USA!
The EZ 70 Roof Vent Pipe Antenna Mast Mounting Bracket is for Mounting Satellite Dish and Off Air TV Antenna to Vent Pipes from 2.5" to 3.75: inches in Outside Diameter. Mast Mount with Hardware (Mast Not Included).
The Vent Pipe used for this attachment must be of Sturdy Stuff (Steel, Ceramic or Equivalent... NOT PVC or Aluminum Foil!), otherwize you will witness a Whole Lot of Shakin' Goin' On with your TV Antenna and Mast! Great for Antenna Masts from 1 to 1.75 inches in Diameter. 1.25 inch diameter Masts are the Standard for Off Air TV UHF/VHF/FM Antenna. Though most TV antennas can be mounted to 1.75 or even 2.00 inch Diameter Masts. Keep the Mast length as Short as Possible, and limit the Dish Size to 20" or less. If Mounting a Off Air TV Antenna, the size of the Antenna would be limited by the amount of Cantilever achieved to offset the torque generated by wind load (increase the distance between the 2 clamps as antenna size goes up!). The Standard is a 1.66 or 1-5/8 inches Diameter Pipe size in most Universal Mounts for Satellite Dishes. Whether Aftermarket or Service Provider supplied, this mount can accomodate even large Dishes for DirecTV (1 and 3 LNB only, the World Direct International uses 1.75" DIA Mast and the Ka/Ku HD Band uses 2" DIA Mast), Dish Network 500+/1000+, Dish 500 Plus, Dish 1000 Plus, DishPLUS, Dish Network TurboHD 1000.4, Dish 1000.2, Dish Network 1000.4, DishPro, 105 SuperDISH, 121 SuperDISH, EchoStar Technologies Corporation, most FTA Free to Air and DBS Direct Broadcast Satellite Dishes. In addition, it can be used in mounting some smaller PCS, Cellular, Broadband Wireless, Wireless Internet and Two Way Antennas.
RG11 Messengered Cable for Aerial Installation
This RG11 Cable Product is designed for Aerial Suspension and Usage. It Features an Integral Steel Messenger in Siamese Configuration with the Coaxial Cable Jacket. This integral messenger precludes the need of the coaxial cable itself being utilized as the structural component in the suspension of the cable in the Air, from point to point. Steel messenger is separated and stripped away from the coaxial cable at the point of termination, and terminated with a suspension clamp that will loop around a "J" Hook (or equivalent) or simply wrapped around a screw-in "P" Hook for the same purpose. RG11 (RG-11) is to 75 Ohm as RG213 or RG214 is to 50 Ohm cable. RG11 Cable featuring 60% Braided Shield is comprised of an Aluminum Foil bonded to the Foam Dielectric with Aluminum Braided Shield with 60% coverage. Quad Shield RG11 would denote alternating Aluminum Foil and Aluminum Braided Shield Layers, starting with the Bonded Foil Layer around the Foam Dielectric, with the best Quad Shield having 2 Layers of Braided Aluminum Shield, one of 60% and the 2nd at 40%. Tri-Shield RG11 will have 77% Braided Aluminum Shield Coverage Between 2 Layers of Aluminum Foil Shield, the 1st Foil Layer being Bonded to the Foam Dielectric. RG11 is the lowest loss Flexible Braided Shield Drop cable Commercially Manufactured for Satellite TV, TV Antenna and Cable TV usage. Use for distances over 150 feet or when every dB counts. For Cable with less loss than RG11, one would then have to avail themselves to Hardline Coaxial with a Single Solid Shield (typically Aluminum) that is pricey, but delivers commensurate Results for the Money. Most all RG11 Manufactured uses Aluminum Braided Shield, the difference of note being the amount of Aluminum Braid Coverage and the composition of the Center Conductor; Solid Copper vs. Copper Clad Steel. Copper Clad Steel will suffice in almost any utilization scenario, however most Satellite TV Operating companies will require Solid Copper Center Conductor to be used by their respective Sub-Contractor Installers for Maintenance and Warranty issues. This is due to the DC Voltage component being fed from the Receiver back to, and Powering the LNB(f)s mounted on the Satellite Dish. Unless the run is extremely long and the connectors applied are of dubious Quality, the DC Loop Resistance difference between Solid Bare Copper and Copper Clad Steel is negligible.
