UHF Wideband Flexible Whip Antenna (403–470 MHz) – FM Approved

The Motorola PMAE4022B is a genuine wideband UHF flexible whip antenna designed for compatible MOTOTRBO portable radios operating between 403 and 470 MHz. Its broad frequency coverage makes it a versatile replacement antenna for UHF radio fleets operating across multiple frequency segments.

At approximately 16 cm long, the full-length flexible whip design is engineered to provide dependable communication performance and improved range compared with a compact stubby antenna. The rugged construction provides the flexibility needed for regular use in demanding professional environments.

The PMAE4022B is approved for use with select FM intrinsically safe Motorola radio configurations. Intrinsic-safety approval applies only when the antenna is installed as part of a complete, properly certified radio system.

Range and Performance

The PMAE4022B uses a full-length flexible whip design intended to provide dependable performance across a broad UHF frequency range. A whip antenna may provide better communication range than a stubby antenna, especially in fringe coverage areas or when communicating through a repeater system.

Actual communication range depends on terrain, buildings, system configuration, radio power and operating frequency.

Important GPS Information

The PMAE4022B is a UHF communication antenna and does not include integrated GPS support. If GPS operation is required, confirm whether your radio needs a combination UHF/GPS antenna before purchasing.

Important Frequency Information

The PMAE4022B is designed specifically for radios operating within the 403–470 MHz frequency range. Its wideband coverage can reduce the need to stock separate antennas for multiple UHF frequency segments within this range.

Using an antenna outside the radio’s programmed frequency range may reduce communication performance.

FM Intrinsic-Safety Information

This antenna may be used with select FM-approved Motorola portable radios. The antenna itself does not make a standard radio intrinsically safe.

To maintain FM intrinsic-safety certification, every component—including the radio, battery, antenna and connected accessories—must be approved for use together under the applicable certification standard.
