Tapered size and ruggedness design, demand of vehicle locating and marine navigation GNSS antenna that will sustain harsh environment. The internal use of QUADRIFILAR Helix Antenna allows for a wider signal reception angle.
- Low noise figure
- Fully weather proof IPX7.
- Ultra-high Sensitivity
- Compact construction
- Excellent temperature stability
- Support GPS/GLONASS/BEIDOU/GALILEO and QZSS system
The antenna system MA-680D is the integration of the high performance GNSS QUADRIFILAR Helix antenna and a low noise amplifier into state-of-the-art low a very low profile/extremely compact/fully waterproof antenna signal enclosure. When connected to a GPS receiver with +3~16V DC antenna power it provide excellent signal amplification and out-band-rejection for that receiver.
Features:
GNSS antenna with double threaded bolts and through holes for cable routing with course & fine treaded pitch locking for wing-nut fastener and lock-nut to prevent vibrations and un-authorize removal.
Applications:
Geospatial Surveys / Single & Multiple frequencies RTK positioning / Vehicle Tracking / Security Surveillance / Precise Guidance / Machine Control / AVL
