Comcore® Manhole Antenna Covers
Elan Technologies and Comcore Utilities Products, Inc. introduce a unique solution for monitoring sewers and other underground utilities: a composite cover that functions as a bi-polar antenna for manholes and vaults. The antenna cover is ideal for communicating with below-grade instrumentation.

The cover is a made of a unique composite material, Comcore®, designed to be lightweight and support HS-20 traffic loads. The Comcore® cover is fabricated to the shape and size that is required (round, square, rectangular) and can be provided with or without a manhole rim.

Comcore® is transparent to radio signals. The Antenna Cover incorporates the components for a heavy-duty antenna tuned for Spread Spectrum, CDMA, GSM, licensed FM, and other common frequencies. The Antenna Cover comes with a cable and connector that meet your specifications.

In operation, the Comcore® Antenna Cover allows wireless communication between two sites with one site being below grade and the other a fixed or mobile radio network or computer home base. Elan can also provide low power, battery operated instrumentation and radio equipment to integrate with the cover.

Comcore® Antenna Covers are sold exclusively through Elan Technologies as a distributor, with their instrumentation packages or as a rep to O.E.M accounts.
