Introduction This is a combination high performance GPS and Penta-band Cellular (GSM/CDMA/ PCS/DCS/ / UMTS / GPRS / EDGE/ HSPA) antenna to simplify AVL or Fleet management antenna systems worldwide. Its high quality low profile covert housing can be attached onto the glass or even out of sight under the dashboard. This combination of a high gain GPS antenna and a leading edge Penta band cellular antenna is ideal for those applications that require durability, small size and covert installation, and reliable reception and transmission crossing through different mobile networks. 1.1 Features GPS High LNA Gain up to 32 dB Antenna Gain 30 ± 2 dB Miniaturized to 55.15x12mm Low Noise 1.5 dB max Cellular Advanced Penta-Band Cellular Antenna (GSM/CDMA/PCS/DCS/UMTS/GPRS/EDGE/HSPA) Other Water Resistant IP 65 (IP 67 MA.203 version also available) Quality textured covert design. Low profile UV resistant ABS housing Comes with high grade 3M double sided tape for quick and easy mounting Fakra code C (blue) on GPS and code D (violet) on GSM Optional cables and connectors SPE-11-8-010/D | page 2 of 19 MA.203.A.A301621.B301721 2.
