Mobile antenna
29 August 2001
Opto-Electronics
A magnetically mounted GPS/GSM antenna for mobile applications has been developed by Webb Industries. Magnetic mounting allows the antenna to be quickly fitted or removed from a vehicle giving it complete portability and versatility.
The Magnum 900/1800/GPS operates in two antenna frequencies but in one housing. The plastic dome houses the GSM and GPS antennas each with their own coax cables.
Webb has developed a full range of 'multiband' vehicle antennas for security and fleet management applications and markets these locally and internationally.
