About This Device
The Digi 76000842 is an active GPS antenna for GPS-enabled Digi cellular routers, including the TransPort DR family used in transit and fleet applications. Tuned to the 1575 MHz GPS L1 frequency with 28 dB of amplified gain, it delivers strong satellite lock even at the end of a cable run - the reason active antennas exist in vehicle installs.
RF performance is matched to GPS satellite reception service: the element operates from 1575 MHz (GPS L1) with 28 dB (active, amplified) of gain. The waterproof, low-profile housing and magnetic base are built for the roof of a bus, truck, or equipment cabinet: stick it to any steel surface, route the cable, done.
Vehicle telemetry, AVL, and time-sync applications all live or die on GPS quality. A marginal window-sill puck causes intermittent position drops that look like software bugs; moving the antenna outside with this unit is usually the entire fix.
Cloud Care Networks stocks the Digi International 76000842 alongside the gateways and routers it supports, so IT and field-service teams can consolidate antennas, spares, and replacement hardware on a single order.
