Sarantel launch new SL1203A ruggedized Passive GPS antenna
Sarantel (AIM: SLG), the leading manufacturer of revolutionary filtering antennas for mobile and wireless devices, is pleased to announce the launch of their new SL1203A ruggedized Passive GPS antenna. Based on the SL1200 series antenna the SL1203A is provided in a rugged housing with male SMA connector for quick and easy connection to applications and is designed to be used as an external antenna.
As with all the Sarantel GPS antennas the SL1203A provides many benefits over conventional GPS antennas, including:
- Omni-directional pattern and wide beamwidth to ensure reliable tracking of low elevation satellites
- Small near field reducing the effect of body on antenna performance
- Self filtering design enabling easy integration in applications with other radio and noise sources
- Built in DC block for direct connection to GPS receivers
