Carcomm GPS Re-Radiator Antenna (CGRA-45)

This Carcomm Re-Radiator Antenna is a GPS Re-radiator allowing a hand-held GPS Receiver to collect the carrier signal inside buildings, vehicles, trucks or boats. This complete set contains the waterproof High Gain 33dB CGMA-03 Carcomm GPS Antenna, re-radiating antenna and a 12V Cigarette Plug.

Via the built-in voltage regulator, the Carcomm Re-Radiator Antenna converts the +12V DC power supply from your vehicle DC source to +5V DC which is required for the GPS Antenna. All received signals are re-radiated directly with a minimum output power to a GPS Receiver / Antenna within a range of 10cm, without the need of pointing the GPS antenna directly to the sky.

Simply plug in the power source to your lighter socket, attach the re-radiating antenna to your GPS Antenna / Receiver and place the GPS antenna outside.
