This Thor Broadcast F-1GPS-TxRx GPS over Fiber are available to support the remote location of industrial GPS antennas. These kits are assembled and tuned to the unique requirements of each application. Thor GPS over fiber systems are an excellent solution for distance limitation between maritime or government GPS antennas and radio signal receiver equipment. Typically any sensor equipment or tuning hardware such as universal time receivers or GPS navigation gear must be installed and located within 100 ft of the antenna system.
Most modern industrial type systems require antennas with a clear view of the horizon to function properly. In the case of large ocean going vessels, underground military installations, or large buildings or structures(metropolis); it can be a challenge to install GPS equipment within 100 ft of a suitable antenna location. Thor solves this problem by extending the distance to over 20km by converting the GPS signal from the antenna’s coax to fiber optic cable. F-GPS systems are available in a variety of form factors, and can be custom tuned to individual users applications.
Thor Broadcast F-1GPS-TxRx GPS over Fiber Features:
