About This Device
The Panorama C29FR-SJ-5FAKCJ-GNSS is a 5 m (16.4 ft) factory-built CS29 FRZH coaxial cable assembly, fitted with a threaded SMA female jack on one end and a GNSS-coded FAKRA C female jack on the other. It is built for vehicle telematics and GNSS installations, where every dB of cable loss comes straight off your link budget. Panorama's CS29 FRZH cable is double-screened 5 mm coax with a stranded centre conductor, semi-air-spaced dielectric and a flame-retardant, zero-halogen (FRZH) jacket, running at the 50-ohm impedance used across cellular, GNSS and Wi-Fi RF paths. The FRZH jacket meets fire-safety requirements where halogen-free, flame-retardant cable is specified, without giving up the flexibility of the stranded centre conductor. Because both connectors are terminated and tested at the factory, you avoid the loss and reliability penalties of field crimping. On the equipment side, the FAKRA C jack mates with FAKRA C male GNSS connectors used in vehicle telematics head units and antennas. At the other end, the SMA jack connects to SMA male antenna leads and device pigtails, including most cellular antenna tails. Factory-applied black GNSS/GPS identification labels identify the GNSS feed at a glance, which matters once several near-identical black cables share a conduit, headliner or cabinet. Typical uses include vehicle telematics installs using FAKRA C GNSS connections and fleet tracking hardware that needs a longer run to the GPS antenna. Route the cable with gentle bends, avoid crushing it under cable ties, and snug threaded connectors evenly to keep the RF joint consistent. For IT teams and installers, a pre-terminated Panorama assembly is the fast path to a clean, repeatable install: pick the length, match the connectors, and skip the crimp tooling entirely.
