Overview

The TOXU TX-G96 is a compact 3-in-1 combination antenna integrating one active GNSS antenna and two independent 4G LTE antenna elements into one external housing.

The active GNSS section supports GPS L1 at 1575.42MHz, BDS B1 at 1561.098MHz, and GLONASS L1 at 1602.5625MHz. It is designed for compatible single-frequency GNSS positioning and navigation receivers.

The two LTE antenna elements cover 824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz, providing two independent RF signal paths for compatible 4G LTE MIMO modules and communication terminals.

By combining GNSS positioning and dual cellular antenna functions in one housing, the TX-G96 helps reduce the number of separate external antennas required by vehicle telematics terminals, fleet-management devices, tracking systems, and industrial IoT equipment.

The available product information indicates RG174 coaxial cables with a standard length of approximately 3000mm. Cable length, connector type, connector gender, cable identification, and port assignment can be configured according to the customer’s equipment interface.

Key Features

GNSS and Dual LTE Integration

One active GNSS antenna and two independent 4G LTE antenna elements are integrated into a single compact housing.

Dual 4G LTE MIMO Connections

The two LTE antenna elements provide separate connections for the main and auxiliary antenna ports of compatible cellular MIMO equipment.

Wide-Band LTE Coverage

Both LTE antenna elements cover 824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz for compatible 4G LTE communication modules and terminals.

GPS, BDS, and GLONASS Reception

The active GNSS section supports GPS L1, BDS B1, and GLONASS L1 satellite signals for compatible positioning and navigation equipment.

Active GNSS Signal Amplification

The GNSS section provides 28±3dB active gain with a noise figure of ≤1.5dB and requires a compatible 3-5V DC bias supply.

Three Independent RF Cables

Separate coaxial cables are provided for the GNSS, LTE Main, and LTE Auxiliary antenna connections.

Compact Threaded-Mount Housing

The housing measures approximately Ø49 × 48mm and uses an M12 threaded mounting structure for installation on a suitable vehicle or equipment panel.

Customizable Cable and Connector Configuration

Cable type, cable length, connector series, connector gender, cable labels, and packaging can be evaluated according to project requirements.

Technical Specifications

The 28±3dB value refers to the active GNSS section and must not be presented as the gain of the entire antenna. Final cable length, connector type, connector gender, environmental protection, and mechanical configuration should follow the approved product specification.

• Industrial IoT Gateways

• Asset Tracking Systems

• Remote-Monitoring Equipment

• Mobile Data Terminals

• Positioning and Communication Systems

System Integration

The TX-G96 provides three independent RF connections: one active GNSS connection, one LTE Main connection, and one LTE Auxiliary connection.

The two LTE cables should be connected to the corresponding main and auxiliary antenna ports of a compatible 4G LTE MIMO communication module. Both LTE antenna elements are passive and do not require a DC power supply.

The GNSS cable must be connected to an active-antenna-compatible GNSS receiver input. The receiver should supply a 3-5V DC bias voltage through the coaxial cable to power the integrated GNSS low-noise amplifier.

The TX-G96 supports GPS L1, BDS B1, and GLONASS L1 signals. It does not perform positioning or provide RTK capability by itself. Actual positioning performance depends on the connected GNSS receiver, software, satellite environment, installation position, and overall system design.

The antenna should be installed on a suitable panel using the M12 threaded mounting structure. Adequate clearance should be provided for the cables, mounting hardware, and connector routing.

Nearby metal structures, electronic modules, interference sources, and improper cable routing may affect RF performance. The antenna should therefore be tested in the final equipment and installation environment.

The GNSS, LTE Main, and LTE Auxiliary cables must be clearly identified before connection. Connector appearance alone should not be used to determine RF port assignment.
