M1600HCT-P-SMA

## M1600HCT-P-SMA 

## IRIDIUM/GPS/GLONASS PASSIVE ANTENNA 

Ordering Part #: 100-00050-01 

## **Description** 

The M1600HCT-P-SMA is a high performance antenna designed for the Iridium network and GPS/GLONASS bands, and built on proprietary Maxtena Helicore[® ] technology. This technology provides exceptional pattern control, polarization purity and high efficiency in a very compact form factor. The M1600HCT-P-SMA is a screw-on design, featuring an integrated SMA connector and is rated IP-67 when mounted for added protection. This product is designed for applications requiring high quality GPS, GLONASS and Iridium satellite reception.
