The uGPS is no longer shipping as of December 2018. It has been replaced with cnPulse. Refer to the cnPulse knowledge base for more information.
Observe the following guidelines when installing a UGPS module:
- The unit may be pole mounted or surface mounted (on a horizontal surface with an unobstructed view of the sky).
- The UGPS should NOT be installed as the highest object at the site.
- Orient the GPS antenna so that it has clear access to the southern horizon (if installed north of the equator) or clear access to the northern horizon (if installed south of the equator).
- Note locations of 600SS surge suppressors when installing the UGPS unit. Reference UGPS Power Source Configurations Compatible power supplies for the UGPS are listed in Table 34.
- Observe cable length specifications in Table 35.
- Cambium Networks recommends using shielded Category 5E cables for outdoor installations.
- The UGPS Power over Ethernet pinout (External Power Port) differs from IEEE Standard 803.3af, and the two should not be intermixed. The UGPS Power over Ethernet pinout is the same as Cambium Networks FSK broadband radios.
