Sonim Technologies, Inc. selected Sarantel’s LBS Pro miniature GPS antenna for the XP3 Quest rugged mobile phone because of its small size and high performance. The LBS Pro enabled Sonim to add cost-effective and high-accuracy GPS functionality to this truly unique, high performance phone.

The exceptional positional accuracy coupled with small form factor of the Sarantel Antenna used in the Lok8u™ num8 GPS locator has enabled a unique product both in design and function, helping to solve traditional size, style and performance issues in this expanding market.

The ability of Sarantel to reduce the antenna size, without sacrificing performance, was a critical design element for this revolutionary new handset. The Iridium 9555 represents a dramatic step forward in innovation and usability for handsets in the MSS sector.

“With Sarantel as a technology partner, we have been able to manufacture a lone worker protection device which is extremely reliable and will work effectively even in the most hostile of environments. Our Chairman and Finance Director recently completed a trek to Everest Base Camp in Nepal and took the opportunity to verify that the RSP-100 was able to work effectively at 17,388ft (5,300m) above sea level in one of the most remote parts of the world. However, it did not come as a surprise to them that the RSP-100 could do its job in such a remote area as it had already been proven that the high sensitivity GPS based technology incorporated into the RSP-100, with the support of the high performance Sarantel antenna, is able to take full advantage of the global positioning network.”
