GPS35185HR
Carrier for NovAtel OEM729 or OEM628-Series Cards
Multi-constellation GPS Satellite Receiver Carrier Module for Mobile Systems

 

GPS35185HR with NovAtel OEM628 installed

Description

This GPS receiver carrier module from RTD uses either the NovAtel OEM729 or OEM628 GPS modules. These receivers will work reliably in a variety of installations. Integrated on the GPS35185HR board is a quad Exar XR17D154 PCI UART with four serial ports. Connect any +5V Active GPS antenna directly to the MMCX-connectors of the OEM628. In IDAN® installations the antenna connection is brought to the front side of the IDAN frame.
