WS4057/WS4067

The WS4057/WS4067 OEM GPS antenna series with built-in connector is ideal for handheld GPS devices, mobile asset tracking equipment and GPS clock & timing applications. With its compact size and low price, the WS4057/WS4067 series is perfectly suited for OEM applications. The WS4057/WS4067 series features a custom designed ceramic patch element, a two-stage low noise amplifier and a SAW filter, enabling the WS4057/WS4067 series to provide great out-of-band signal rejection performance, consistent and clear signal while minimizing loss-of-lock. Both models come equipped with a MCX connector. The WS4057 comes in a very compact 25 mm square package and the WS4067 comes with a 45.2 mm dia. mini-ground plane.

Designed for easy integration into a variety of OEM platforms, the connectorised WS4057/67 series integrates a two-stage low-noise amplifier to ensure a reliable and clear signal for the GPS receiver even in difficult conditions, as well as a SAW filter for even greater performance for telematics applications where out-of-band signal rejection is required.
