At Mobile Mark, we understand that military requirements are different, that the antennas will be used in difficult environments and need to be ready for squad deployments, pop-up stations, or communications intelligence-gathering (COMINT).  That’s why our antennas are rugged, durable and reliable.

Mobile Mark  - Military Antennas

We handle the usual and the unusual, from standard products to specialty products. Think if it as “COTS with flexibility”. We offer all the convenience and cost savings of off-the-shelf products but with the ability to tweak the design to better meet your in-the-field requirements.

We have antennas for many commercially available wireless networks as well as antennas for dedicated military frequencies, such as 1350 MHz or 4.4 GHz. Our antennas are designed and manufactured in the United States.

Our in-house Engineering Design Team has years of experience in antenna design.  We can supplement your own engineering efforts and be a valued RF sounding board.  We can help you envision all sorts of ways the antennas can be used, including break-apart omnis and embedded, body-worn patches.

Mobile Mark military antennas comply with Mil specs such as MIL-810G. Our antennas are designed and tested in our in-house facilities located in the US, just outside Chicago.

Mobile Mark offers more than just a wide range of antenna designs, we offer the company behind the antennas: knowledgeable, easy to work with, and ready to be your antenna partner.

Network Antennas (OD-BA, PS18-4900-45, SCR-2400/5500)

Mobile Mark offers omni-directional site antennas in military appropriate colors such as olive drab and desert sand.  Specialized antennas to speed network deployment include the 12 dBi Break-Apart Antenna that can collapse down into two easy-to-carry pieces.  We also offer low profile, compact directional antennas for dependable point-to-point connections.

Embedded Antennas (EM, CVL, PM-1350)

For specialized applications where it is important to track the individual soldier, embedding the antenna directly in the troop’s equipment or clothing has many advantages… and tradeoffs.  We can help you understand what you gain and what you lose with different antenna styles.  Our expertise includes board-only styles as well as slim profile over-molded styles.

Asset Tracking Antennas
(HD7-915, RM w/ Groundplane Rods, SM-U15)

Reliable asset management requires making use of multiple systems: RFID tag readers, Wi-Fi based Bar Code scanning, GPS location systems as well as Cellular M2M (machine-to-machine) transmissions.  Mobile Mark can help you put together the right mix of antennas from site to mobile to covert.

Vehicle Antennas (LTM501, SMW-305, SMD-W)

Mobile antenna selection becomes complicated as new wireless protocols, such as LTE and 802.11ac, are added to the network.  Mobile Mark is the industry leader in multiband antennas; we can combine multiple antenna solutions in a single compact, durable package.  Our mobile antennas meet Military specs for Shock, Vibration, Temperature and Water Ingress.

Specialized Frequencies (ECO9-4700, PSTN2-2200, RMM-1400)

Sometimes a COTS antenna just needs to be tweaked to cover a different frequency or to provide a different radiation pattern.  And, sometimes, the need is so unique that nothing but a customer design will do the job.  Mobile Mark’s team of design engineers can handle it all, whether the design requirement is electrical or mechanical.

Comrod Communications Group design and manufacture military antennas and antenna systems, tactical support masts, military power supplies and battery chargers to the defence communications market.

Military Vehicle Antennas

The Comrod range of military vehicle antennas are designed for use on modern in-service platforms including armoured or soft skin, metal chassis or composite, wheeled or tracked.

Tactical antennas cover the military frequency bands of HF, VHF, UHF and L1/L2 GPS.  Comrod also has an extensive range of wideband and multiband antennas covering both VHF and UHF in the 30-2500 MHz band. 

High power antennas are available which are suitable for both military communications and IED jamming applications.

Military Manpack Antennas

The Comrod range of tactical manpack antennas are suitable for handheld and man-portable applications covering HF, VHF and UHF frequency bands (1.6MHz to 2500MHz).

Consultation with Radio OEMs and users enables us to optimise the product to meet the customer’s specific requirement.

Manpack antennas can be supplied using helical, tape or folding whip construction and are available with a flexible gooseneck or spring assembly and antenna matching unit (AMU). 

Variants are also available with integrated GPS antennas.

Tactical Base Station Antennas

Comrod has an extensive range of tactical ground and remote antennas covering the HF, VHF and UHF frequency bands up to power ratings of 1KW.

The military specification HF ranges of products include omni-directional antennas with ground planes and HF broadband wire dipole antennas covering 2-30MHz.

In the VHF band we have elevated omni-directional end fed antennas with ground planes as well as elevated centre fed antennas.

For directional point to point and line of sight communications we have log periodic antennas in the 30-88MHz and 30-512MHz bands and for wide area networks we have a radio relay antennas covering band 1, band 3+ and band IV frequencies in both grid and dish configurations.

All tactical base station antenna products can be supplied with adaptors to fit the Comrod series of military support masts.

Telescopic, Sectional and Sleeve Masts

Comrod has a complete range of tactical support masts from lightweight manpack up to heavy duty motorised versions. The tactical man-pack mast range is simple to erect, cost effective and ideally suited for light omni-directional and wire antennas up to 9metres in height. The ULM and MLV sleeve tripod masts are primarily ground mounted systems ideally suited for heavier head loads, elevating tactical base station antennas including line of sight antennas up to 40metres. 

The composite telescopic push up mast series can be used to elevate light head loads up to 12 metres and be ground or vehicle mounted. The pneumatic telescopic mast series is constructed of aluminium sections and is erected using a foot-pump or compressor. It is ideally suited to supporting our tactical base station antennas up to heights of 18 metres.

The winch driven composite telescopic mast series is suited to supporting heavier head loads up to heights of 34 metres.
This series can be ground mounted or vehicle mounted using vehicle specific brackets.

Military Power Supplies and
Battery Chargers

The Comrod range of power supplies and battery charging products have been designed and manufactured using state of the art technology and fully meet Mil Std/EMC/TREE requirements.

The product range covers chargers for handheld radio batteries up to vehicle installed stabilised power supplies for sensitive electronic equipment.

The Comrod range of rack mounted power supplies are designed for optimum adaptation to weak power sources such as portable generators.

Military Shipboard Antennas

Comrod has a large range of antennas specifically designed for use on military marine craft ranging from rigid inflatable’s up to large naval vessels operating in the HF, VHF and UHF bands.
