Abstract
A sector antenna is provided comprising a base plate, a cable tower mounting to the base plate and at least one reflector mounting to the base plate and substantially parallel to the axis of the cable tower. The reflector includes a plurality of electrical components operative to transmit and receive telecommunications signals in an arcuate sector of the antenna. The reflector has an inwardly facing surface opposing the cable tower and an outwardly facing surface disposed away from the cable tower. Furthermore, a cable guide plate is interposed between the cable tower and the reflector such that apertures formed in the cable guide plate may provide a guide through which a conductor may pass for making an electrical connection to one of the electrical components along the outwardly-facing surface of the reflector. The cable guide plate apertures align with the reflector apertures and provide a guide to operators when assembling, maintaining and repairing the telecommunications antenna.
