With limited SCADA system operating budgets and tight schedules, it's never been more important to get the installation done right the first time.
As anyone who has ever installed an RTU for oil or gas-field application knows, ensuring a watertight seal on the connection between the yagi antenna and the feed cable can be time-consuming and sometimes a real pain, particularly with those antennas with a connector midway up the boom! But we all know the consequences if this critical step is not done properly: it can come back to plague us with poor SCADA system performance, or even complete communication failure... usually in the worst weather!
A simple way to save money and improve reliability A proven method to reduce installation time, improve system performance, and increase reliability is to deploy yagi antennas manufactured with a custom length, factory-installed integral feedline. We're not talking about a long patch cable that's been heat shrunk to the existing pigtail or N connector, but rather a one-piece, engineered solution that completely eliminates the connector at the antenna.
A custom length cable attached directly to the driven element When you install a yagi antenna made with a standard pigtail, or worse yet, one with the connector midway up the boom, the antenna jumper cable needs to be meticulously taped and sealed to prevent water leaking in. How about this instead! A factory installed custom length cable, integrated directly with the active element with no connector at the antenna. This ingenious antenna innovation completely eliminates the connector at the antenna, resulting in many cost-saving benefits. For the most part, 50 feet or less is likely to meet the requirements of many SCADA applications, where the majority of sites are 'cookie-cutter' installations and can effectively make use of same-length cables.
How Does This One Piece Feedline Benefit You?
Cost reduction
- dramatically reduces installation time: simply remove the antenna from the box, unroll the cable, and it's ready to install
- eliminates the requirement to make up a patch cord
- minimizes storage space requirements, eases material handling issues by combining previously separate components into one box
- reduces the overall cost-of-ownership by minimizing the need for costly truck rolls to replace impaired or failed antennas due to compromised connections
- reduces the need for RF training to successfully perform the installation
Improves system performance and reliability
- improves the efficiency of the antenna from to dB by entirely eliminating one connector site. This is particularly important with spread spectrum SCADA systems
- eliminate weatherproofing concerns at the antenna: no connector, no concern
- provides greater long term dependability of the entire installation
Oil & Gas SCADA; Traffic Control; Water Management; Utilities
While oil and gas industry applications are the primary beneficiaries of custom length integral feed cables, other industries that have recognized the clear advantages of this innovation include Intelligent Traffic Systems, Water & Waste Water Management, and Utility T & D SCADA applications.
I concede that outside of the Oil & Gas SCADA market, the height and configuration of each site in a SCADA system may vary, in which case it's neither practical nor desirable to stock only a single model antenna made with a fixed length cable. In such cases, the system operator should give serious consideration to have on hand a selection of gain values manufactured with varying cable lengths to accommodate the height requirements. In view of the many obvious advantages listed above, advance planning of antenna placement (and consequent cable length) can ensure compelling value by trimming installation time, bolstering productivity, increasing system performance, and extending site reliability.
Good SCADA automation can become GREAT using optimum antenna technology incorporated into the design from the start.

Spring Break: Sunbathe, Dine And Dance The Night Away
With spring right around the corner, it's time to put away the winter gloves and coats and dust off the sun tan lotion and binoculars. To be sure, there's nothing like being able to soak up rays and refresh in the swimming pool following one of the most intense winter seasons on record – more than 60% of the U.S. was reportedly blanketed in snow earlier this year. That being said, it's no surprise travelers are more than ready to hit up picturesque beaches, fine restaurants and lively nightclubs in Miami, Los Angeles, Las Vegas and other spring break hot spots as the weather heats up. Read on for a taste of what awaits you at these meccas for fun, sun and much more.
Party in Miami
Known for its pearly white sand beaches and booming nightlife scene, everything about South Beach oozes fun and vibrancy. Fashion shoots and star-studded events are standard here, thus earning Miami a reputation as an oasis for the fashion forward. Shopping options are endless, from the popular Dolphin Mall in Doral to fine boutiques on Ocean Drive to a wide collection of stylish designer stores in the heart of the Collins Avenue Fashion District. Then there's scores of chic, Art Deco hotels nestled on South Beach, each within minutes of the city's hippest attractions. Among them are the trendy Whitelaw Hotel; Hotel Chelsea, an Art Deco fixture since 1936; the Beach Paradise Hotel, whose design was inspired by Spanish mansions of old; and the Deauville Beach Resort, which over the years has attracted the likes of celebrities like Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin.
Let Loose in Los Angeles
I'd be remiss to discuss Los Angeles shopping and nightlife without highlighting Beverly Hills and West Hollywood. The former includes world-famous Rodeo Drive, a shopping district famous for its upscale boutiques and shops. Passing through West Hollywood is the Sunset Strip, an area where colorful and expansive billboards are easy to find, as are various restaurants, nightclubs, and – if you're lucky enough – a celebrity or two. Like Miami, Los Angeles is a playground for beachgoers as thousands flock to Venice Beach, among the city's other sizzling beaches, to catch some rays or hang ten. Hotel Angeleno – a Joie de Vivre Hotel – and Hotel Beverly Terrace, two boutique properties in close proximity to Beverly Hills and Hollywood, make great places to unwind after a day of non-stop action in SoCal.
Live it up in Las Vegas
Dazzling lights and an ever-festive ambiance make Las Vegas a popular vacation hot spot year year-round, and spring break is certainly no exception. With scores of famous casinos, towering hotels, fine shops and renowned restaurants, it's no surprise the city has been dubbed "The Entertainment Capital of the World." Most of the world-famous Strip's best shows and attractions are found on the resort properties that line it. Take Stratosphere Casino, Hotel and Tower. Aside from boasting the largest observation tower in the United States, it proves that Florida and California are far from the only places for theme park thrills. Guests can enjoy heart-pounding rides including X-Scream and Insanity, both of which propel you anywhere from 27 to 64 feet over the edge of the Tower. Racing aficionados will love Speed – The Ride, a state-of-the-art rollercoaster at Sahara Hotel and Casino's Nascar Cafe Entertainment Center. If your idea of fun involves getting wet, guests should not miss Golden Nugget Hotel & Casino, winner of the AAA Four-Diamond Award each year since 1977. The Tank is a $30 million complex featuring a shark tank, private cabanas and an exhilarating 3-story waterslide.
Tour NYC's Stellar Attractions
Though New York City likely won't sit atop your list of top beach destinations anytime soon, it nonetheless has enough attractions to keep travelers, no matter their age, well-entertained over the course of spring break. Catch a New York Knicks game at Madison Square Garden, photograph the Statue of Liberty, watch a show on Broadway, tour the Museum of Modern Art, spend an afternoon unwinding at Central Park, or delight your palate at one of Chinatown's many fine restaurants. Your options for things to do and places to see are endless. Within walking distance of these attractions is the Belvedere Hotel, an Art Deco style hotel that features a state-of-the-art fitness center and popular Rodizio-style steakhouse, Churrascaria Plataforma. Other notable properties include Affinia Shelburne at Lexington Avenue and the Eastgate Tower Hotel in Murray Hill.
Explore Europe
If you're looking to break out of your usual routine and travel abroad for spring break this year, you'll find a wealth of fun things to do and landmark attractions to gawk at in Europe. Among travelers' favorites: the Louvre and always-striking Eiffel Tower in Paris, the historic Coliseum in Rome, and Museumplein, a spacious square along which four museums are set in art-rich Amsterdam. If you'd rather be doing something a bit more lively, each city hosts tons of exciting events year-round and features plenty of nightclubs, shops, restaurants and sporting venues to suit different tastes. Properties to check out include Villa Eugenie and Tonic Hotel Du Louvre, two of Paris' finest; Hotel Savoy and the Ripa Hotel, two four-star gems in Rome; and Grand Hotel Amrath, a 5-star masterpiece nestled in the historic heart of Amsterdam.
