2072 Pulse Electronics Corporation has launched its new, ultra-thin, active GPS antenna with global 3G functionality including GPRS, GSM, UMTS and WCDMA. The W4150GG5000 antenna can be installed with either side facing up so only one antenna is required, whether mounting on the windshield or dashboard, to make installation simple. Designed for in-vehicle adhesive mounting, the unit assists in vehicle and asset tracking and location, navigation, emergency call systems, fleet tracking, insurance tracking and pay-as-you-go transport systems.

The 3G antenna is suitable for global operation providing coverage at frequencies of 824-960/1710-2170MHz with a gain of 2/4dBi and a radiated efficiency of up to 70 per cent. The GPS operates at 1575.42MHz frequency with a gain of 26dBi max.
