The M7HCT-A-EMB is Maxtena’s latest high performance active embedded antenna
de- signed for L1/L2 GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and Beidou bands. The antenna is
designed for applications requiring greater accuracy than what L1 only antennas can
provide. The antenna is built on proprietary Maxtena Helicore® technology. This
technology provides exceptional pattern control, polarization purity and high
efficiency in a very compact form factor. It is an embedded antenna design, featuring
an SMA connector. This antenna has superior filtering performance and is rated for
50 V/m out of band interference. The M7HCT-A-EMB is ideal for UAV, UGV and high
precision applications and is GNSS receiver agnostic.
