Digital Yacht ZDIGGPS160N2K - GPS160

The Digital Yacht ZDIGGPS160N2K - GPS160, equipped with TriNav™ technology, offers exceptional accuracy and reliability for positioning needs. Utilizing GPS, Glonass, and Galileo satellite systems, this high-performance GPS antenna ensures precise positioning with typical accuracy better than 1m. With an output rate of up to 18Hz, it provides smoother plotter track displays, enhancing navigation experiences.

The GPS160 features various modes through field programming, including single GNSS operation and customizable output configurations. Its NMEA 2000 model includes the iKonvert NMEA 2000 gateway, facilitating easy installation without cumbersome drop cables.

Additionally, the GPS160 supports external MOB devices, generating AIS SART MOB messages upon activation to aid in man-over-board situations. With the integration of QuadNav™ technology, including support for Beidou satellites, it offers improved time to first fix, robust operation against jamming, and reduced power consumption.
