Multi-GNSS Precision Passive Antenna
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The PCTEL Multi-GNSS Precision Passive Antenna is a high-accuracy GNSS antenna designed for precise positioning, navigation, and timing applications. Unlike active antennas, this passive model does not include an internal low-noise amplifier (LNA), making it ideal for systems with built-in amplification. It supports multiple GNSS constellations, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou, ensuring enhanced accuracy and reliability.
This multi-GNSS passive antenna is optimized for high-precision applications where an external amplifier is already present, offering:
✅ Multi-constellation GNSS support (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou) – Ensures maximum satellite visibility.
✅ Passive design (No LNA) – Works with systems that provide their own signal amplification.
✅ High-precision performance – Delivers stable and accurate GNSS signal reception.
✅ Durable & weatherproof construction (IP67 rated) – Suitable for long-term outdoor deployment.
✅ Lightweight & compact form factor – Ideal for mobile, aerospace, and industrial applications.
