-
- Signal: DCF77 longwave time signal, 77.5 kHz (AW02-60 variant for MSF/WWVB at 60 kHz)
- AW02 (outdoor) housing: unbreakable plastic case, IP56 protection rating, rubber sealed
- AW02 operating temperature: -25°C ... +65°C
- AW02 connector: Type-N (female), RG58 coaxial cable
- AW02 cable distance: up to 300 m with standard RG58 (longer runs require an amplifier or fiber link)
- AW02 power: supplied by the receiving device over the antenna cable
- AW02 mounting: wall-mount bracket, rotatable 360°
- AW02 dimensions/weight: 245 x 106 x 68 mm, 0.55 kg including mounting kit (+0.1 kg per meter of cable)
- AI01 (indoor): ferrite-rod antenna, remotely powered RF amplifier, up to 300 m with RG58
- AV4: 4-port external antenna distributor/amplifier-diplexer
- AV5: 5-port internal (BGT systems) amplifier/diplexer; connectors SMB, BNC, Type-N; power 230V/50Hz (~20mA); 4HP/3U enclosure
- DOAL: optical antenna link system using multimode gradient fiber, retrofittable to existing DCF77 systems
- MBG S-PRO: coaxial surge protector with replaceable gas discharge tube, N-type connector
- Provides a highly accurate, GNSS-independent time reference via the PTB atomic-clock-sourced DCF77 (77.5 kHz) signal Available as outdoor (AW02, IP56) or indoor (AI01) antenna AV4/AV5 amplifier-diplexer units allow multiple receivers to be fed from a single antenna DOAL fiber-optic link enables long-distance, electrically isolated installations MBG S-PRO surge protector guards against lightning and overvoltage AW02-60 variant available for 60 kHz MSF/WWVB reception
