GPS Antenna Kit
The RAS-Extend M uses a set of two (2) active-type GPS antennas. The two RF ports
(TNC / F) conduct RF signals between the GPS antenna system and the wireless
terminal (N-Type / F). using a TNC / M to N-type / M cable.
The GPS system provides compass coordinates when the RAS-Extend M system is in
motion. These coordinates are used to determine the location, speed and direction of
travel.
