The Fly-Around Top Hat Extension is a pre-engineered, off-the-shelf extension, extending the height of any round or sided monopole.
The key feature of the Fly-Around is it's versatility to clear any existing platform or mount that stands in it's way! This means that NO carrier will be left off-air or temporarily relocated.
The Fly-Around consists of (3) lattice braced pipe legs with the ability to attach to the BLADESystem or WAVESystem monopole reinforcements. It can also connect directly to a monopole with a termination plate. Once set in place, the Top Hat is then bolted atop the Fly-Around to accommodate 10.75" thru 18" diameter pipe extensions up to 30ft. in length with the capacity to hold up to two additional carrier arrays.
Contractors will now be able to realize their dreams coming true, as an entire new platform (with antennas) can be assembled on the ground and flown into position with guaranteed fit-up to the matching Top-Hat.
