## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=GPS-14987:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/GPS-14987:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

This tri-band GNSS antenna is ideal for GPS L1, GLONASS L1, and Beidou B2 reception. At 45x45mm it is a *large* ceramic antenna with an incredible 38dB LNA gain.

This antenna works well with the GPS-RTK providing reception of Beidou satellites where other more basic GPS antennas cannot. We’ve chosen to have the antenna manufactured without an enclosure to decrease the weight (45g including cable) making this antenna more ideal for rover and quad-copter applications. Additionally, the cable length has been reduced to 1m to reduce weight and to make a more clean installation.

We recommend this antenna for RTK use when combined with the ground plate. This antenna is ideal for advanced raw, RTK, and post-processed measurements of GPS, GLONASS, and Beidou constellations. If all you need is GPS and GLONASS (basic GNSS) consider our lower cost [magnetic mount GNSS antenna](https://core-electronics.com.au/gps-gnss-magnetic-mount-antenna-sma-3m.html).

Antenna is terminated with a standard SMA connector. Check out the related items below for any conversion cables you may need.
