## A Tallysman _Accutenna™_ TW4500 Wideband Dual Feed Globalstar™ Antenna 

The TW4500 employs Tallysman’s unique Accutenna™ technology in a compact magnetic mount, passive Left Hand Circularly Polarised antenna (LHCP) for the 1610 to 1620 MHz frequency band, specifically designed to maximise the performance of the Globalstar™ STU (Simplex Transmit Unit) modems. 

The wideband dual feed patch element in the TW4500 has an excellent axial ratio across the entire Globalstar™ bandwidth.  Unlike single feed antennas, the TW4500 provides excellent multipath rejection and a truly circular transmission response across the Globalstar™ band. 

The TW4500 is the smallest dual feed, high performance Globalstar™ antenna available.  It is housed in a compact IP67 magnetic mount enclosure. It available with a 50cm coaxial cable that allows for an STU modem to be mounted away from the weather, yet still provide excellent Globalstar™ coverage.
