U-BLOX ANN-MB2 antenna

All-band high precision GNSS antennas. Easy-to-use, reliable all-band antenna as part of u-blox high precision solution

Highlights

• Robust L1/L2/L5/E6/B3/L active external GNSS antenna
• High performance all-band antenna for the mass-market
• Supports all major GNSS systems for maximum position availability
• Versatile mounting options to meet diverse installation needs
• Enables fast time-to-market

Product Description

The u-blox ANN-MB2 multi-band (L1/L2/L5/E6/B3/L) active GNSS antenna is designed to reduce time-to-market for modern wide-frequency, multi-constellation, high precision GNSS applications. These require centimeter-level accuracy and a reliable RTK positioning fix even in challenging environments. Its robust design, excellent price-to-performance ratio, and flexible mounting options make the ANN-MB2 an ideal choice for mass market applications requiring an all-band high precision GNSS antenna.

The ANN-MB2 is a perfect match to the u-blox all-band X20 high precision platform (e.g. ZED-X20P), and the u-blox F9 high precision products that support L1, L2, and L5 bands along with the L-band for RTK corrections (e.g. ZED-F9K, ZED-F9P, LEA-F9T, and ZED-F9T). With ANN-MB2, customers have a reliable, ready-to-use all-band antenna that streamlines evaluation, minimizes design efforts, and speeds up mass adoption.
