AP.17E.07.0064A

AP.17E.07.0064A is a 17mm one-stage GPS/Galileo active patch antenna module with front end SAW filter. It has been designed specifically for embedded (inside device) integration with GPS/Galileo receiver modules. The AP.17E combines a 17x17x4mm advanced low-profile ceramic patch antenna with a one-stage LNA and a front-end SAW filter with ultra-thin coaxial cable. It comes with its own integrated ground-plane. The front-end SAW filter reduces the risks where there is a cellular transmitter nearby of interference from out-of-band frequencies, which can cause LNA burn-out, saturation, or radiated spurious emissions. Typical applications include navigation systems, asset tracking, and performance trackers/wearables.
