Topcon Positioning Systems (TPS) announces the next generation of high performance, geodetic GNSS receivers – NET-G3A.
Featuring Topcon’s Paradigm G3 chip, the NET-G3A delivers tracking of all currently available satellite signals. It is fully configurable through a new web user interface to allow configuration remotely. It offers low power consumption, 25-hour internal batteries, advanced memory storage capabilities and an industry-leading data rate of 100Hz.
While primarily designed to operate as part of a network solution delivering real time corrections and providing data for post processing applications, the NET-G3A is fully capable of playing the role of a full-featured, “in the field” campaign receiver or stand-alone RTK base station.
Eduardo Falcon, TPS senior vice president and general manager of the Emerging Business Unit, said, “Whether you are building a new network, expanding an existing one or even enhancing a third party network, the NET-G3A is ready to deliver the highest level of performance expected in a professional, geodetic GNSS receiver.”
Key features of the NET-G3A include:
— GPS (L1, L2, L5), GLONASS, and Galileo support;
— 144-channel universal-signal tracking technology;
— Data update/output rate of 1-100Hz selectable;
— Removable CF memory card up to 2GB;
— USB host that allows the ability to plug in a USB memory stick or a USB mass storage device;
— HTML web user interface (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera);
— 2 Lithium Ion batteries;
— Communications:
TCP/IP address – 5 different address ports supported;
NTRIP client and server functionality; and
Ports – serial/4, power/2, USB/1, Ethernet.
