"Penta Band GPS/GSM Combination Antenna"

Introducing the new GPS088 antenna – Specifically designed
for the demands of today’s telematics and AVL systems.

GPS088 Penta Band Wedge Shaped GPS/GSM Antenna

Combining a Penta-band (850/900 1800/1900MHz, 2.1-2.5GHz) cellular quarter wave planar antenna with a high performance amplified GPS module in a single, low profile, adhesive pad mounted wedge.

The GPS088 is ideally suited to manufacturers supplying GPS receivers. It has an integrated LNA (Low Noise Amplifier). Delivering 18dBi (nominal) at the connector, it also meets the specification of most “high sensitivity” GPS receivers.

The GPS088’s unique shape lends itself to a range of internal mounting options, however due to its waterproof housing, external mounting is an option too. It is supplied in black, with 4 metres of RG174 cable as standard and is terminated with a customer specified connector (Including FAKRA).

CTi GPS088 Wedge Shaped GPS/GSM Antenna
CTi also offer a bespoke tailoring service, so the GPS088 can be supplied in a variety of colours* and cable lengths to suit individual customer requirements.
