Hytera AN0158H05

VHF/GPS Stubby Helical Antenna

Low-Profile, Durable Communication for Covert and Belt-Worn Radios

The Hytera AN0158H05 is a professional-grade VHF stubby antenna engineered for high-discretion and covert operations. Measuring only 9cm (3.5 inches) in length, this helical antenna features a high-performance brass core that ensures reliable signal transmission and reception while maintaining a non-obtrusive profile. Optimized for the 153–164 MHz frequency range, the Hytera AN0158H05 also includes a dedicated 1575 MHz element for seamless GPS/GLONASS satellite tracking, making it an essential accessory for teams requiring location-based services alongside voice communications.

Specifically designed for Hytera’s slim-line X1 and PD6 series portables, the stubby design is ideal for users who wear their radios on a belt or concealed under clothing. By minimizing the physical length of the antenna, the AN0158H05 reduces the risk of snagging on gear or environment obstacles without compromising the structural integrity of the helical core. With a durable SMA-male connector, this antenna provides a secure, vibration-proof fit for years of safe and effective field communication.

Key Features & Benefits

• Dual-Band Functionality: Optimized for VHF voice communications (153–164 MHz) and integrated GPS/GLONASS tracking (1575MHz).
• Low-Profile Helical Design: At only 9cm long, it is perfect for covert use or belt-worn applications where a standard whip antenna would be too cumbersome.
• Helical Brass Core: Constructed with a high-quality brass core for superior conductivity, durability, and long-term reliability.
• Professional SMA-Male Connector: Precision-engineered interface ensures a stable and secure connection to the radio chassis.
• Covert Optimized: The short, non-obtrusive form factor prevents the radio from "printing" under clothing and reduces snagging on tactical gear.
• Ruggedized Outer Sleeve: Built to withstand daily wear and tear in demanding professional environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this antenna work for standard VHF frequencies outside the 153–164 MHz range? This antenna is specifically tuned for the 153–164MHz window. Using it significantly outside this range may lead to increased SWR and reduced transmission range.

Is this antenna waterproof? When correctly seated on a compatible Hytera radio with an O-ring seal, the antenna helps maintain the radio's environmental rating (IP67/IP68).

Does this antenna require tools for installation? No. It features a standard SMA-male connector that is easily hand-tightened onto the radio's antenna stud.
