GNSS Modules
GPS, GLONASS, Galileo and BeiDou Build-In Modules for 19 Inch Rackmount Chassis
- Product Summary
- Product Details
-
- Receiver: 72-channel GPS L1 C/A-code and Galileo E1-B/C receiver (IMS-GNS-UC)
- Constellation selection: GPS only, Galileo only, or both concurrently
- Pulse output accuracy: < ±50 ns (with OCXO SQ, HQ or DHQ oscillator option)
- Synchronization time: max 1 minute under normal conditions; averaging 12 minutes (max 25) on initial startup or without saved satellite data
- Interface: RS-232 (time string output/input and PPS input for synchronization)
- Baud rate: 300–19,200
- Time string formats: NMEA0183, Meinberg Standard, and others
- Form factor: hot-swappable satellite clock module for the Meinberg IMS LANTIME platform (described as a 24-channel satellite clock module)
- Power: +5V DC, 1.1–1.4 A current draw
- Adds native GNSS receiver capability directly to an existing LANTIME/IMS chassis Supports GPS and Galileo, individually or combined Hot-swappable module design allows maintenance without downtime Sub-±50 ns pulse accuracy depending on oscillator option Flexible time string and PPS synchronization over RS-232 Fast sync, typically under one minute under normal conditions
