KP Performance Antennas Unveils New ProLine, 8-Port, Horizontal/Vertical Polarized Sector Antenna
November 21, 2019 | Infinite ElectronicsEstimated reading time: Less than a minute
KP Performance Antennas, a manufacturer of wireless network antennas, has just launched a new horizontal/vertical polarized, 8-port ProLine sector antenna that is ideal for broad-frequency, point-to-point, point-to-multipoint and backhaul applications.
KP’s new KPP-2HV5HVX8-65 ProLine horizontal/vertical polarized sector antenna operates in the 2.3 GHz to 2.7 GHz and 4.9 GHz to 6.4 GHz frequency ranges. It features a 65-degree azimuth beamwidth and zero-degree fixed electrical downtilt. It also boasts 8 ports, gain performance of 17 dBi and 16.8 dBi respectively and excellent front-to-back of 31 dB and 34 dB. This antenna is engineered to deliver high, stable gain over wide bandwidths and suppress side-lobes and back-lobes for mitigating inter-sector interference.
“Our new horizontal/vertical polarized ProLine sector antenna combines two individual radiating systems within a single rugged radome, allowing complete dual-spectrum coverage while reducing leased space on the tower and installation costs,” said Ken Izatt, Antenna Product Line Manager.

Global PCB Connections: Let the Spec Fit the Board, Not Just the Brand
07/17/2025 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsIf you’ve ever seen an excellent PCB quote delayed, or worse, go cold because of a single line on the fab print, you’re not alone. Often, that line reads something like, “Use 370HR only,” or “IT-180A required.” These and other brand-name materials are proven performers, but unless your design needs that specific resin system (say, for RF performance, thermal reliability, or stringent CAF resistance), you may inadvertently be holding your job hostage.
Digital Twin Concept in Copper Electroplating Process Performance
07/11/2025 | Aga Franczak, Robrecht Belis, Elsyca N.V.PCB manufacturing involves transforming a design into a physical board while meeting specific requirements. Understanding these design specifications is crucial, as they directly impact the PCB's fabrication process, performance, and yield rate. One key design specification is copper thieving—the addition of “dummy” pads across the surface that are plated along with the features designed on the outer layers. The purpose of the process is to provide a uniform distribution of copper across the outer layers to make the plating current density and plating in the holes more uniform.

Global PCB Connections: Embedded Components—The Future of High-performance PCB Design
06/19/2025 | Jerome Larez -- Column: Global PCB ConnectionsA promising advancement in this space is the integration of embedded components directly within the PCB substrate. Embedded components—such as resistors, capacitors, and even semiconductors—can be placed within the internal layers of the PCB rather than mounted on the surface. This enables designers to maximize available real estate and improve performance, reliability, and manufacturability.
