Automobile navigation has become a standard offering among many vehicle brands. Businesses achieve great efficiencies in knowing where their mobile assets are and having the ability to deploy them rapidly. GPS has become an indispensable tool of a mobile workforce.
Sarantel's GPS antennas permit greater flexibility in integrating GPS functionality into the dashboard of a vehicle and help to significantly reduce the cost of integration. Patch antennas must be housed and mounted on the outside of the car.
Sarantel's GPS antenna can be put inside the car, in the boot, under the seat, or beneath the dashboard, saving cost in materials and installation. The GeoHelix™ antenna's omni-directional pattern ensures good performance in obscured environments.
