The Fly-Around Extension is an off-the-shelf solution capable of extending the height of any round or sided monopole.
The key feature of the Fly-Around Extension is it's versatility to clear any existing platform or mount that stands in it's way. This means that carriers can be left on-air and does not require carriers to be temporarily relocated.
The Fly-Around consists of (3) lattice braced pipe legs that are capable of attaching to the SWITCHBLADE System or BLADE System 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 accomodate a 10.75" thru 18" diameter pipe. Pipe Extensions are available in 5' increments from 5' thru 30' and provide capacity to hold up to two additional carrier arrays.
Key Features:
» Bolt On Solution, No Field Welding
» Clears Existing Platforms
» No Temporary Power Downs
» Bolts to Bare Pole, Blade & Switchblade (For a continuous transfer of forces)
» Installs Quickly, 1 Day for Fly Around, Top Hat, Extension & Antennas
