The metal adapter on the bottom of the antenna is fixed in place. Do not attempt to remove it.

3.Remove the dust cap from the antenna’s connector.

4.Attach the male TNC connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna’s TNC connector.

For the GPS-703-GGG-N, attach the male N-Type connector of the coaxial cable to the antenna’s N-Type connector.

5.Attach the other end of the coaxial cable to the antenna input port of the receiving device.

The receiving device must provide power as detailed in the SPECIFICATIONS section of this guide. All NovAtel GNSS receivers provide the necessary power through their antenna RF connectors.

The GPS-703-GGG and GPS-703-GGG-N are designed to withstand the elements, including rain, snow and dust. However, to ensure your antenna performs optimally, keep the radome (the top surface of the antenna) clean and brush off any ice and snow. In addition, ensure the connector remains clean and dry and replace the dust cap when a cable is not connected.
