Professional Marine Antennas Made In Italy

Overview

NAV-6 is an active GPS and GLONASS antenna especially designed for the
marine environment. It combines the high performance GPS patch antenna
and a 27 dB low noise amplifier (at 5V DC) into a compact waterproof
antenna with exclusive design.
NAV-6 enables the required GPS function for AIS systems, chartplotters, and
other navigational devices, and helps boost the reception signal to the GPS
unit, especially when the GPS receiver doesn't have a good view of the sky.
NAV-6 minimizes temporary loss of signal during navigation and maintains
the best possible accuracy by having a lock on the greatest number of
satellites.
NAV-6 is supplied with deck mount, mounting set and a 15 m RG58 cable
with TNC male connectors. Standard 1" x 14 threads for pole mounting.
