Point-1 GPS & Heading Antenna with Network Cable - Lowrance
GPS-ANT
The Lowrance Point-1 GPS & Heading Antenna with Network Cable supplies GPS position and electronic heading data to a compatible NMEA 2000 navigation network. It is useful when a display installation needs an external sensor location or heading information to keep chart orientation meaningful at low speed, rather than relying only on movement to determine direction.
The Point-1 combines multi-GNSS reception with an integrated compass and supplies 10 Hz updates. The included network T-connector and 15-foot extension cable help place it in the network, while the stated pole or surface mounting options allow flexibility in the installation. It must be connected to a powered NMEA 2000 network; the data cable alone is not a standalone power supply.
Includes:
- Point-1 antenna
- N2K-T-RD network T-connector
- N2KEXT-15RD 15-foot network extension cable
