Overview
The PCTEL GPS-TMG-40 timing reference antenna with internal amplifier is specifically designed for long lasting, trouble-free deployments in congested cell-site applications. The 40 dB high gain amplifier is well suited to address attenuation issues associated with applications requiring longer cable runs.
The proprietary quadrifiliar helix design, coupled with multi-stage filtering provides superior out-of-band rejection and lower elevation pattern performance than traditional patch antennas.
Their unique radome shape sheds water and ice, while eliminating problems associated with bird perching. The GPS-TMG-40 may be purchased by itself or with pipe mounting hardware. Custom models or site kits options are also available.
The GPS-TMG-40 antenna is made of materials that fully comply with provisions stipulated by EU directives RoHS 2002/95/EC.
It also features ESD, reverse polarity protection and transit voltage suppression.
