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.
