TW3040 Permanent Mount GPS L1 Antenna
The TW3040 by Tallysman Wireless is a professional
grade, permanent mount GPS L1 antenna, specially
designed for professional precision timing applications.
The TW3040 features a custom high performance, wide
band patch element, a 40dB gain LNA stage and a high
rejection out-of-band SAW filter. It provides ±10MHz
bandwidth centred on 1575.42 MHz and covers the GPS
L1, Galileo E1 and SBAS (WAAS/EGNOS/MSAS) signals,
and it provides great axial ratio, excellent circular
polarized signal reception, great multipath rejection
and great out-of-band signal rejection.
The TW3040 is housed in a permanent mount
industrial-grade weather-proof enclosure and two
options for pole mounting are available an L-bracket
(P/N#23-0040-0) or a pipe mount (P/N#23-0065-0).
