Variable Gain Hanger Networked GPS Re-Radiating Kit | BNC Connectors, 110V Source Input, LCD Display
Product Description
This GPS re-radiating kit is designed for distributing GPS signals inside a hanger or large spaces without obstruction. GPS L1 signals is received by the include roof antenna, amplified, and then re-radiated indoors using the passive antenna. This hanger GPS re-radiating system consists of an active roof-top antenna, a passive re-radiating antenna, and amplifier with external power supply to power the entire system. In the standard network configuration, the amplifier output (J1) is DC blocked while the antenna port provides DC voltage to power the roof antenna.
This hanger GPS re-radiating kit (EDMO# VGLCDHNRRB) features BNC-type connectors, operates from a 110V power source, and a variable gain amplifier with an LCD display.
This product is only to be used for testing GNSS equipment/systems for the purpose of product development or fabrication.
Per the latest FCC guidance, the following use cases are NOT allowed:
- Fire Stations & First Responders
- Aircraft Repair and Maintenance
