Abstract
The present disclosure describes a sector frame antenna mount assembly. The assembly includes an antenna mount, a sector frame, and a pair of offset extension units. The pair of offset extension units are configured to position the sector frame an increased distance from a mounting structure.
Claims19
A sector frame antenna mount assembly, the assembly comprising:
- an antenna mount, the antenna mount comprising:
- first and second arms, each arm having upper and lower segments, the arms positioned at a non-zero angle relative to each other;
- and
- a pipe clamp configured to secure the antenna mount to a mounting structure;
- a sector frame, the sector frame comprising a plurality of horizontal and vertical members, the vertical members configured such that one or more antennas can be mounted thereto;
- and
- a pair of offset extension units, each offset extension unit comprising:
- two horizontal runs positioned parallel to each other, the horizontal runs being secured to each other via a plurality of support rods;
- a first set of mounting plates secured to a first end of each horizontal run, wherein the first set of mounting plates are further secured to the upper and lower segments of a respective arm of the antenna mount;
- and
- a second set of mounting plates secured to a second end of each horizontal run, wherein the second set of mounting plates are further secured to a respective horizontal or vertical member of the sector frame.
