Spectral Frequency Diagram
The Spectral View Diagram visually describes the performance of the antenna from 400 MHz to 6000 MHz. Key frequencies are marked highlighting the technology used, and the color represents the performance at that frequency taking in to consideration the VSWR and radiated efficiency of the antenna.
Green is considered a suitable band, amber is adequate in good signal conditions and red is likely to be unsuitable.
