Dimensions - 45.2x35.8x15.1 mm
Center frequency - 1575.42 MHz, 1600 MHz
Bandwidth - 10 MHz
VSWR on bandwidth - <1.5
GAIN - 3 dB
LNA minimum gain - 26 dB
LNA maximum gain - 30 dB
Consumption - 11 mA

New version: GNSS 2.5 .png


Dimensions - 46x44x13 mm
Center frequency - 1575.42 MHz, 1602 MHz
Bandwidth - 35 MHz
VSWR on bandwidth - <1.9
GAIN - 3 dB
LNA minimum gain - 26.5 dB
LNA maximum gain - 29.5 dB
