Cambium Networks External GPS Antenna

Field technicians deploying Cambium Networks PMP and PTP wireless backhaul links in remote or exposed locations need reliable GPS synchronization to avoid interference and maintain network timing. The Cambium Networks External GPS Antenna N000900L030A is an active GPS L1 antenna engineered for such demanding outdoor environments. With a 26 dB low-noise amplifier and a noise figure below 1.5 dB, it ensures strong satellite signal reception even in areas with weak GPS coverage. The antenna's IP67-rated UV-resistant housing protects against dust, rain, and prolonged sun exposure, making it suitable for year-round installation on towers, rooftops, or poles.

Why choose it

This antenna is built to deliver consistent GPS timing for Cambium radios, ensuring precise synchronization across your network. The integrated LNA boosts weak signals, reducing the risk of loss of lock in challenging environments. Its rugged construction and wide temperature range mean you can install it once and rely on it for years without maintenance.

Ideal use cases

• Synchronizing Cambium PMP 450/450i access points and subscriber modules
• Providing GPS timing for PTP 650/670/700 links in long-range backhaul
• Outdoor installations on towers, masts, or building exteriors
• Networks in harsh climates, from desert heat to arctic cold

Good to know

The antenna does not include a GPS cable; you must purchase a compatible cable separately. It is designed specifically for Cambium Networks equipment, so verify your radio model's GPS input requirements before ordering. The included mounting bracket simplifies installation on vertical poles or flat surfaces.
