Antenna Connection Overview
The TimeProvider 5000 chassis has one antenna connection located on the front of
the IMC module. The antenna connection is made via a SMA connector, labeled
GPS. The connectors are DC isolated and AC bypassed to frame ground. This
connection is used for a radio receiver antenna connection only. Installation
procedures for GPS antennas are outlined below.
