AL100.301111

Antennas RF Overview

The AL100.301111 is an active L-band external antenna manufactured by Taoglas Limited, designed for global navigation satellite systems including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS. It operates within a frequency range of 1.525GHz to 1.56GHz with a center frequency of 1.542GHz. The component features right-hand circular polarization and provides a gain of 2.95dBi at 50 ohms impedance. Key specifications include an integrated low-noise amplifier (LNA) and filter, SMA male termination, and IP67 ingress protection rating. The antenna utilizes a magnetic mounting type with a maximum height of 0.673 inches (17.10mm) and includes a 3-meter cable.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Galileo receiver integration
• BeiDou tracking devices
• QZSS compatible equipment

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific revision of the datasheet to confirm current LNA biasing requirements and connector pinout definitions. Ensure that the SMA male interface matches the receiving equipment's port configuration. Confirm that the 3-meter cable length aligns with system layout constraints before finalizing procurement orders.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when high-sensitivity L-band reception is required in mobile or outdoor environments. The magnetic mount facilitates rapid deployment without permanent fixtures. Consider the integrated LNA benefits for long cable runs where signal loss must be minimized prior to the receiver input stage.

Antennas RF Part Context

This part belongs to Taoglas' portfolio of active GNSS antennas. It is distinct from passive whip antennas due to its internal amplification circuitry. The design focuses on multi-constellation support, allowing a single hardware solution to replace separate receivers for different satellite networks.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed in the provided documentation. Cross-referencing requires matching the 1.525-1.56GHz frequency range, SMA male interface, and active LNA specifications.
