Product Info

Low-cost dual frequency and dual constellation survey GNSS antenna

Ideal for survey and mapping grade positioning, the low-cost PL-S1 is packaged in a lightweight and robust housing and provides excellent tracking performance for applications where our modular or handheld GNSS receivers are required.

• High-performance Fence Antenna® technology
• Dual constellation, dual frequency geodetic antenna
• L-Band Compatible
• Rugged enclosure with high shock and vibration tolerance

Rugged affordability for GNSS Positioning

Lightweight, rugged and affordable GNSS antenna for multiple application use

Like the high-end PG-S1 geodetic antenna, our PL-S1 uses our patented Fence Antenna® technology to provide exceptional tracking sensitivity and multipath rejection for all surveying and mapping applications.

Also supporting dual constellation L1/L2 and L-Band satellite signal frequencies, and featuring an integrated ground plane the PL-S1 is ideally suited to work with our modular or handheld GNSS receivers.
