Receivers and Antennas

L-Band

Of our antennas, only the lightweight ELT0170, which screws onto an SMA connector or can be mounted with screws, and the stationary ELT0123, which mounts on a geodetic pin, are capable of receiving signals in this band. The receiver for this range is the NEO-D9S.

L1gps

These antennas are suitable for NEO-M10S receivers when switching from Beidou to B1C and not using GLONASS. They also work for any other single-frequency receivers if only GPS and Galileo are being received. There are only two types of antennas: a magnetic one with a 3-meter cable and an SMA connector, ELT0011, and a caseless one with an IPEX connector, ELT0176.

L1

These antennas are suitable for any single-frequency receivers. ELT0124 screws onto an SMA connector, ELT0180 and ELT0181 are adhesive with double-sided tape, while ELT0182 is mounted with screws. All except ELT0124 are caseless with an IPEX connector.

L1/L2b

These antennas are for dual-frequency L1/L2 receivers, such as ZED-F9P-04, ZED-F9R, ZED-F9H, ZED-F9T-00.

• there are magnetic options: ELT0012, ELT0157, ELT0158
• screw-mounted options: ELT0012, ELT0121, ELT0121W, ELT0158, ELT0168
• screw-on SMA options: ELT0014, ELT0014W, ELT0121, ELT0121W
• option for screwing into a hole: ELT0153

All antennas come with an SMA connector.

L1/L5a

These antennas are for dual-frequency L1/L5 receivers, such as ZED-F9T-00, ZED-F9P-15, NEO-F9P-15, NEO-F10T. There are only two antennas. ELT0178 screws onto an SMA connector, and ELT0140 (also with an SMA connector) can be either screw-mounted or attached to magnets.

L1/L2/L5

These are multi-frequency antennas. They are used when different dual-frequency receivers (L1/L2 and L1/L5) need to be connected to one antenna, or when stationary mounting or a rare antenna type is required. There are various mounting options:

• magnetic ELT0167
• screw-mounted ELT0170
• screw-on SMA ELT0170
• angled mounting on SMA ELT0152
• geodetic pin mounting ELT0123
• caseless screw-mountable ELT0149, ELT0148

All antennas come with an SMA connector.
