Motorola PMAE4117A
Mag One UHF 400-470 MHz Whip Antenna
Flexible High-Gain Communication Solution for Professional Two-Way Radios
The Motorola PMAE4117A (also identified as PMAE4117) is a professional-grade Mag One UHF whip antenna engineered for high-reliability communication in the 400-470 MHz frequency range. Designed specifically for users who require both performance and physical mobility, this antenna features a highly flexible core that moves with the user. This flexibility significantly reduces the "poking" discomfort common with rigid antennas when the radio is worn on a belt, while also protecting the radio's internal antenna connector from strain during active physical tasks. The Motorola PMAE4117A is the updated version of the Motorola PMAE4117.
As part of the Mag One accessory line by Motorola Solutions, the Motorola PMAE4117A offers a balance of value and ruggedness. Its whip-style architecture is optimized for maximum signal radiation and reception, providing superior coverage compared to shorter stubby antennas. This makes the Motorola PMAE4117A an essential component for personnel operating in environments where consistent signal penetration through obstacles—such as concrete walls or dense urban areas—is required.
