PE51066-2

Antennas RF Overview

The Pasternack PE51066-2 is a GPS passive antenna designed for single-band operation within the L1 frequency range of 1.5724 GHz to 1.5784 GHz. It features an SMA male input connector and utilizes 16 feet of RG174 rated cable for signal transmission. The component provides a typical gain of 3 dBi, ensuring effective reception capabilities for global positioning systems.

Antennas RF Feature Summary

• Single-band GPS passive design optimized for L1 frequencies
• SMA male connector interface with integrated cable assembly

Antennas RF Applications

• GPS receiver integration
• Navigation system installation
• Positioning equipment deployment

Antennas RF Procurement Notes

Verify the specific connector gender matches the target application requirements. Confirm that the 16-foot cable length aligns with the physical layout constraints of the installation site. Ensure compatibility with the receiving equipment's impedance specifications to maintain optimal signal integrity during operation.

Antennas RF Selection Notes

Select this model when a fixed-length cable assembly is preferred over field-terminated connections. Consider the SMA male interface requirement for mating connectors. Evaluate the need for passive operation versus active amplification based on the specific signal strength environment and system architecture requirements.

Antennas RF Part Context

This component belongs to the PE51066 series of GPS antennas manufactured by Pasternack. Variants within this series typically differ in connector gender or cable length while maintaining similar operational frequency ranges and passive design characteristics for consistent performance across different installation scenarios.

Antennas RF Replacement Considerations

PE51066-1 serves as a functional alternative with identical electrical specifications but utilizes an SMA female connector instead of male.
