GPS Smart Antenna Module (SBS-2528)
The SBS-2528 is the newest generation of KNCTEK GPS Smart Antenna Receiver which was integrated with GPS function and Patch antenna into one module. The GPS Smart Antenna receiver is powered by SkyTraq technology and KNCTEK proprietary navigation algorithm that providing you more stable navigation data. The miniature design is the best choice to be embedded in a portable device like PND, PDA, Telematics and vehicle locator. The excellent sensitivity of SBS-2528 gets the great performance when going though the urban canyon and foliage environmental condition.
