Abstract

See full text

A low-PIM dual pipe clamp and associated mounting bracket for securing a first pipe transverse to a second pipe at a cellular base station antenna site. The dual pipe clamp accommodates a range of pipe diameters with lower PIM generation, cost, and weight characteristics compared to conventional dual pipe clamps traditionally used at cell sites. The low-PIM dual pipe clamp minimizes the number of parts to upper and lower mounting brackets connected by linear threaded rod connectors, such as bolts, avoiding the use of U-bolts known to create PIM interference in conventional designs. The dual pipe clamp secures first and second pipes against each other in transverse orientations (e.g., horizontal and vertical), as typically utilized to mount antennas at cellular base stations. Each mounting bracket includes first and second pipe restrainers that bias the first and second pipes against each other as the threaded rod connectors are tightened.
