The DIAMOND AZ506 – Dual band mobile antenna Frequencies 144 / 430MHz Length 67cm Weight 100gr Gain 2.5dB (144MHz), 4.5dB (430MHz) Max Power 50W FM (Total) VSWR 1.5: 1 Impedance 50 Ohm MP connector Type 3/8 (144MHz), 3/4 (430MHz) is a commercial-grade, low-profile dual-band mobile transceiver antenna precision-engineered to deliver secure voice synchronization, flexible multi-band spectrum tracking, and elite circuit line conditioning. Manufactured by Diamond Antenna, an international standard in high-performance vehicular communications, this premium lightweight whip overhauls restrictive legacy single-band setups that increase roof clearance vulnerability. It stands as an essential operational procurement asset for commercial transport fleets, public works coordination vehicles, security team transit fleets, and high-volume B2B radiocommunication hardware accessory wholesale distribution lines looking to source original factory-genuine active components.
The advanced internal RF core of this high-compliance mobile element features broad frequency agility optimized for simultaneous resonance across standard frequencies 144 / 430MHz (VHF 2-meter and UHF 70-centimeter bands). The specialized internal coil distribution framework configures the hardware as a type 3/8 (144MHz) wave radiator on VHF, shifting smoothly into a high-efficiency type 3/4 (430MHz) wave configuration on UHF frequencies. This custom wavelength geometry maximizes radiation efficiency across compact vehicular mounts, casting a flattened radiation pattern focused toward the horizon to capture deep fringe-area signals while safely accommodating a max power 50W FM (Total) operational forward load limit.
Housed inside a flexible, high-tensile stainless steel structure, the antenna configuration measures a highly compact operational length 67cm and registers an ultra-lightweight net weight 100gr, applying negligible vertical torque or mechanical wind-drag strain to thin sheet-metal trunk roofs or bracket lips. Tuned to interface cleanly with standard mobile transmission cabling arrays along a system impedance 50 Ohm path with a reliable matched VSWR 1.5: 1 baseline curve, the feedpoint terminates in a standardized high-retention MP connector (PL-259 UHF Male style) with an integrated threaded locking ring. Delivered fully factory pre-tuned requiring zero manual field cutting, this dual-band antenna system ensures absolute out-of-the-box field deployment readiness.
