Designed to take advantage of the GLONASS system or satellite constellations, in addition to the standard GPS, this sturdy outdoor antenna incorporates a water-resistant low-profile housing and provides three simple mounting solutions: pole, surface or under deck (for the bottom of fiberglass covers).
The external GPS and GLONASS antennas provide greater flexibility and more installation options, as well as the power necessary to achieve better reception of the GPS or GLONASS signal, for products with built-in GPS or GLONASS antennas.
