the SL1204 surface-mount GPS antenna available,providing high performance in difficult GPS applications.
Product DescriptionBuilt on patented PowerHelix® filtering antenna technology, the SL1204 surface-mount GPS antenna is the smallest active quadrifilar helix antenna available, providing high performance in difficult GPS applications. The SL1204 integrates a high-performance, optimised gain, low-noise amplifier with Sarantel’s GeoHelix®-P2 antenna for receivers requiring an active input. The SL1204 has been optimally designed to work best with the latest generation of GPS chipsets. The SL1204 antenna is ideal in applications where:
• the device is handheld, body-worn, or otherwise surrounded by high-dielectric materials that would de-tune conventional antennas;• the antenna is tightly integrated with other antennas, e.g., Bluetooth®/GPS receivers or GPS/GSM mobile phones;• there are tight constraints on the size of the device or the amount of space allocated to ground planes;• the 2nd Generation GPS receiver requires optimised LNA gain for optimal GPS performance;• the orientation of the device is random; or• the antenna will be embedded in the device.
