GPS amplifier & splitter

This unit is a combined GPS amplifier/splitter; it has a built-in line amplifier with a gain of 16dB that can transmit a GPS signal to up to three separate GPS repeater/receiver units.

This versatile device can be used in three main configurations:

As a GPS splitter unit (1:3) with the amplifier not used
As a GPS splitter unit (1:3) with the amplifier in circuit
As a line amplifier only with the splitter element un-used
