Overview

The TOXU KC.WX.00045 is a compact 2-in-1 combination antenna integrating active GPS positioning and 4G LTE cellular communication functions in one housing.

The GPS antenna operates from 1560-1580MHz and integrates a low-noise amplifier providing 28 +/- 2dB active gain. It requires a compatible 3-5V DC bias voltage supplied through the GPS RF port.

The cellular antenna covers 824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz for integration with compatible 2G, 3G, and 4G LTE vehicle terminals, telematics devices, tracking equipment, and industrial communication systems.

The two antenna functions use independent black RG174 coaxial cables. The GPS cable is terminated with a blue C Coding FAKRA connector, while the 4G LTE cable uses a purple D Coding FAKRA connector.

The housing measures approximately 60 x 51 x 17.6mm and uses 3M foam adhesive tape for installation. The standard finished cable length is 2000 +/- 30mm.

Key Features

GPS and 4G LTE 2-in-1 Integration

The KC.WX.00045 integrates positioning and cellular communication antennas into one housing, reducing the number of separate antennas required inside the equipment.

1560-1580MHz Active GPS Antenna

The GPS section covers 1560-1580MHz for compatible vehicle positioning and navigation equipment.

28 +/- 2dB GPS Active Gain

The integrated GPS low-noise amplifier provides 28 +/- 2dB active gain according to the approved finished-product drawing.

824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz Cellular Coverage

The cellular section supports compatible mobile communication equipment operating within the specified frequency ranges.

Independent GPS and Cellular Connections

The GPS and cellular antenna sections use separate coaxial cables and connectors for connection to their corresponding equipment ports.

Color-Coded FAKRA Connectors

A blue C Coding FAKRA connector identifies the GPS connection, while a purple D Coding FAKRA connector identifies the 4G LTE connection.

2000 +/- 30mm RG174 Cables

The dual black RG174 cables provide a standard finished length of 2000 +/- 30mm for equipment integration.

Compact Adhesive-Mount Housing

The approximately 60 x 51 x 17.6mm housing uses 3M foam adhesive tape for installation on a clean and suitable flat surface.

Technical Specifications

The operating frequency, connector coding, cable length, equipment interface, and installation environment should be confirmed before ordering.

Dimension Drawing

The following drawing shows the housing dimensions, dual-cable structure, adhesive mounting surface, and color-coded FAKRA connectors of the KC.WX.00045.

Applications

• Vehicle Tracking Devices

• Fleet Management Terminals

• Telematics Control Units

• Automotive Navigation Equipment

• Vehicle Communication Terminals

• Asset Tracking Systems

• Industrial IoT Gateways

• Remote-Monitoring Equipment

• Wireless Data Terminals

• Compatible GPS and LTE Embedded Systems

System Integration

The KC.WX.00045 provides two independent RF connections. The blue C Coding FAKRA connector should be connected to the compatible GPS port, while the purple D Coding FAKRA connector should be connected to the cellular RF port.

The GPS port must provide a compatible 3-5V DC bias voltage through the coaxial cable to power the integrated low-noise amplifier.

The cellular section covers 824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz. It should not be selected for equipment requiring LTE bands below 824MHz unless a customized version is separately designed and verified.

The blue and purple FAKRA connectors use different mechanical coding. Connector color and coding must be checked against the equipment-side interfaces before production.

The adhesive mounting surface should be clean, dry, flat, and free from oil or dust. The installation position should be evaluated inside the final equipment because nearby metal parts, electronic modules, and cable routing can affect RF performance.

The two RG174 cables should be routed without excessive bending, pulling, crushing, or placement close to strong interference sources.

FAQ

Q: Which antenna functions are integrated into the KC.WX.00045?

A: It integrates an active GPS antenna and a 4G LTE cellular antenna in one compact housing.

Q: Which GPS frequency range does it support?

A: The GPS antenna covers 1560-1580MHz according to the approved finished-product drawing.

Q: Can this product be promoted as a GLONASS antenna?

A: No. The current finished-product specification only confirms 1560-1580MHz, so GLONASS support should not be stated without additional RF test data.

Q: Which cellular frequency ranges are supported?

A: The cellular antenna covers 824-960MHz and 1710-2690MHz.

Q: Does the cellular antenna cover the 700MHz LTE band?

A: No. The standard specification starts at 824MHz and does not confirm 700MHz LTE coverage.

Q: Does the GPS antenna require power?

A: Yes. The active GPS antenna requires a compatible 3-5V DC bias voltage supplied through the GPS RF port.

Q: Which FAKRA connectors are used?

A: The GPS cable uses a blue C Coding FAKRA connector, and the 4G LTE cable uses a purple D Coding FAKRA connector.

Q: What is the standard cable length?

A: The finished-product drawing specifies a cable length of 2000 +/- 30mm.

Q: How is the antenna installed?

A: The housing uses 3M foam adhesive tape for installation on a clean and suitable flat surface.

Q: Can the cable length or connector configuration be customized?

A: Customized cable lengths and connector configurations can be evaluated according to the equipment interface and project requirements.
