Simrad GS25 V2 GPS antenna

SIMRAD GS25 V2 GPS Antenna with Integrated Compass | High-Precision Marine Navigation

Elevate your onboard navigation system with the SIMRAD GS25 V2 GPS Antenna, a high-performance positioning and heading sensor designed for the modern mariner. This essential piece of marine electronics delivers exceptionally accurate and rapid vessel position and speed updates, forming the reliable heart of your navigation network. Whether you´re navigating crowded waterways, marking a crucial fishing spot, or relying on precise radar overlay, the GS25 V2 provides the confidence and data integrity you need to boat safely and efficiently. Its advanced technology ensures you maintain a lock on your position, even in challenging conditions, making it a vital upgrade for any vessel equipped with a Simrad multifunction display.

The GS25 V2 isn´t just a standard GPS receiver; it´s a comprehensive solution. The integrated electronic compass and gyro heading sensor is a game-changing feature, providing stable and smooth heading information directly to your chartplotter and autopilot. This is critical for accurate chart orientation and ensuring your radar overlay aligns perfectly with your chart, even when your vessel is stationary or moving at very low speeds—a common scenario where standard GPS-calculated heading can become unreliable. Experience fluid, real-time vessel tracking on your display thanks to a high-speed 10 Hz position update rate, eliminating the frustrating "jumping" of your boat´s icon seen with slower antennas.

Key Benefits:

* Superior Positional Accuracy: Leverages a 72-channel receiver that tracks multiple satellite constellations, including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou, for a faster, more reliable position fix anywhere in the world.
* Stable Heading for Radar Overlay: The built-in rate-stabilized heading sensor provides precise heading information, crucial for accurate radar/chart overlay and clear course-up display orientation, even at rest.
* Fluid On-Screen Movement: A rapid 10 Hz position update rate ensures your vessel´s movement is tracked smoothly and realistically on your multifunction display, enhancing situational awareness.
* Fast Signal Acquisition: The high-sensitivity receiver quickly acquires satellite signals upon startup and reacquires them rapidly if signal is temporarily lost.
* Simple Plug-and-Play Installation: Connects effortlessly to any NMEA 2000 network with a single cable that provides both data and power, simplifying setup and reducing cable clutter.
* Rugged Marine Design: Built to withstand the harsh marine environment, the compact and fully waterproof housing can be pole-mounted or surface-mounted on any vessel.
