MS22S

DESCRIPTION

The MS22S is a military qualified, two-input, two-output, GPS splitter that includes an antenna health sensor and embedded antenna switch. Dual input ports allow the splitter to be connected to two GPS receive antennas. The sensor monitors the health of the primary antenna connected to the splitter. Based on the information provided by the sensor, the splitter will switch to the secondary antenna in the event of a failure with the primary antenna. If the failure in the primary is resolved, the splitter will automatically switch back to the primary. The embedded switch has been designed so it can be controlled externally. This external control can also override the internal automatic switch. The MS22S can eliminate the need for multiple GPS antennas on the surface of a roof or other platform, as two RF output ports allow the MS22S to distribute (split) the signal to two devices. Redundancy is acquired through the use of a primary antenna and a backup antenna. The ability of the MS22S to switch antennas, allows all connected GPS devices to remain fully functional in the event of an antenna failure. It has a thinner profile and is lighter in weight than the standard MS22. As with all splitters available from GPS Source, passive, amplified, or custom gain can be configured for the device.
