Linx Technologies has introduced two new GNSS ceramic patch antennas, the ANT-GNCP-CA158L160 and ANT-GNCP-CA188L165. These active antennas support Global GNSS applications, including GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, Beidou, IRNSS, and QZSS systems in the L1/E1/B1 bands.

Each antenna offers an integrated 15dB LNA having high gain with low noise figure of 2.6dB. The Active GNCP antennas terminate with a 1.13mm coaxial cable (60mm or 65mm, respectively) and U.FL-type plug (female socket) connector.

“As part of Linx Technologies’ growing GNSS antenna portfolio, these new active GNSS antennas provide our customers with two great options for GNSS,” said Linx CEO, Tolga Latif. “By integrating the LNA with the passive antenna and powering the LNA through the antenna feed cable, designers gain performance over a similar passive GNSS ceramic patch antenna.”
