USGlobalSat USB Bulkhead Mounted WAAS Enabled Water Proof GPS Receiver MR-350P-S4
GlobalSat MR-350 WAAS Enabled, Bulkhead Mount, Water Proof GPS Receiver
The MR-350 is a “mini” external GPS receiver, which utilizes a bulkhead (through-hole) mounting design for applications that require a more permanent weatherproof mounting solution. The built-in GPS receiver is self-contained with the latest “20” channel SiRF Star III high performance GPS chipset for accurate positioning and an active patch antenna.
The extended 15’ data cable allows for easy routing to your laptop behind headliners and side panels and terminates to a custom PS/2 connector for interfacing with one of the available cable kits that can be purchased separately (USB/RS232/ PDA).
The MR-350 can be used in a wide variety of applications including being mounted on police and fire trucks, utility/commercial vehicles, boats and aircraft.
The USGlobalSat MR-350 GPS Receiver can be utilized in a variety of applications that require a permanent mounting configuration. With bulkhead (through-hole) mounting and a low-profile housing, the GlobalSat MR-350 is completely self-contained and waterproof. It incorporating the latest SiRF Star III GPS chipset and an active patch antenna so you receive a high degree of GPS accuracy.
Typical application can include marine environments, aviation, commercial use such as fire truck, police cars and utility vehicles and buses. The extended 4.5 meters cable allows for easy routing to your PC behind headliners and side panels and terminates to a custom PS/2 connector for interfacing with one of the available cable kits which can be purchased separately (USB/RS232).

CAUTION:
DO NOT install the MR-350 in close proximity of other RF antennas as the power output from radios can effect GPS reception. Exact mounting distances from other antennas can vary, so it is high recommended that you temporarily attached the MR-350 in the desired mounting area (wire tie, tape, etc) and fully test the location while using your other radio equipment to verify that there is no interference before drilling your permanent mounting hole.
