Description

Overview

The Trimble AX940 GNSS smart antenna offers multi-frequency, multi-constellation support for GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS and NavIC. It can deliver reliable centimeter-level accuracy in a variety of environments. In addition, the Trimble AX940 delivers reliable, high-accuracy positioning without the constraints of a local base station or cell modem using Trimble RTX™ correction services.

The AX940 GNSS smart antenna supports both triple frequency for the GPS and GLONASS constellations plus dual-frequency from BeiDou and Galileo. As the number of satellites in the constellations grows, the AX940 is ready to take advantage of the additional signals. This delivers the quickest and most reliable RTK initializations for 1–2 centimeter positioning.

For applications that do not require centimeter accuracy, the AX940 delivers high accuracy GNSS, DGNSS positions in the most challenging environments such as urban canyons. Different configurations of the module are available. These include everything from a DGPS L1 unit all the way to a four constellation, triple-frequency RTK unit. Choose the receiver that suits your application and price point. All features are password-upgradeable, allowing functionality to be upgraded as your requirements change.

With the option of utilizing OmniSTAR or RTX services with Integrity Monitoring, the AX940 delivers varying levels of performance down to centimeter-level without the use of a base station or cell modem.

Industry professionals trust Trimble embedded positioning technologies as the core of their precision applications. With the latest Trimble Maxwell™ 7 Technology, the AX940 provides assurance of long-term future-proofing and trouble-free operation. Moving the industry forward, the Trimble AX940 redefines high performance positioning:

  • 336 Tracking Channels
  • Trimble Everest Plus multipath mitigation
  • Advanced RF Spectrum Monitoring and Analysis
  • Proven low-elevation tracking technology

The Trimble AX940 was designed for easy integration and rugged dependability. Customers benefit from the Ethernet connectivity available on the board, allowing high speed data transfer and configuration via standard web browsers. CAN, USB and RS-232 are also supported. Just like other Trimble embedded technologies, easy-to-use software commands simplify integration and reduce development times. An intuitive 3D interactive graphical web page allows easy input of lever arms.

The unit comes in an environmentally sealed enclosure that is very easy to install. The unit is rigorously tested to perform in harsh
environmental conditions with the reliability you expect from Trimble.
