Outdoor Antenna Basics Antenna cables and accessories enable versatile solutions that are easy to achieve. Inline GNSS amplifiers installed at the antenna are an easy way to extend cable runs from 225 feet to up to 900 feet, depending on cable type. Lightning arrestors provide valuable electrical shock protection to the SyncServer. Antenna cable splitters leverage a single antenna and cable for up to four GNSS receivers. Ordering antenna components is a simple task. The most important thing the user needs to have is a rough idea of the total cable length needed between the SyncServer and the mounting location of the antenna. Any extra cable can be coiled to the side. Pre-configured kits that include cable, antenna, and related mounting accessories are available. These kits vary by total cable length, and are based on whether a lightning arrestor is required or not. For long cable runs (>225 feet), the components are assembled individually. To assist and simplify configuration, Microsemi has included an Excel-based antenna configurator on the website. The configurator helps the user determine the exact part numbers they need for the desired cable length and accessories.
