Cable length requirements
ThelimitonthelengthoftheGPScabledependsonmultiplefactors:
•
LocationoftheGPSantenna.
•
TypeoftheRFGPScableused.
•
Splittersandconnectorsused.
Lengthsvarybasedontheaboveparameters.Theparameter,definingpropercable
length,isthesignalstrengthattheinputsofthePicoGPSreceiver.Thesignalstrength
mustmeetthesensivityrequirementsasshowninthetablebelow.

External GPS Antennas
ManydifferentGPSantennaoptionsareavailableforanoutdoorGPSantenna.The
guidelinesinTable9:RecommendedGPS/GLONASSAntennaSpecificationsalso
applytoanexternalGPS/GLONASSreceiver.TheFlexiZoneMicroGPSantenna
(473100A)cansuitthispurpose.Thisantennaisdesignedtomountdirectlytothe
femaleNconnectorontheFZMsodoesnotincludeacableormountingfeature.A
mountingbracketwouldbeneededwithabulkheadfemaleNconnectorthenalongrun
ofcable.IfadeploymentofalargenumberofFZPsisneededwithremoteGPSthenthe
bestsolutionwouldbeasingleGPSantennaandadistributionnetwork.Caremustbe
takentoinsuretheDCblockisinplace.ThisDCblockcanbeaseparateitemor
includedinthedistributionnetwork.
Distribution networks
InthecaseoflargeindoordeploymentsofFZPunitsutilizingGPS/GLONASSitisbetter
touseasingleGPSantennawithadistributionnetwork.Thisequipmentisnotsupplied
byNokiaasitissitespecific,butcanbeusedtoovercomethelossesincurredwithlong
cablerunsandmultiplesplitstoaccommodateseparatefeedsintoeachFZP.Caremust
betakenwhenselectingtheproperdistributionamplifier.Thekeyrequirementsareas
follows:
•
ActiveGPS/GLONASSantennabias:Theamplifiermustprovide5VDCforthe
activeantenna.
•
PortImpedance:Allports(IN/OUT)mustbe50ohms.
