About This Device
The Panorama C29NJ-1SMBP is a 1 m (3.3 ft) factory-built CS29 coaxial cable assembly, fitted with a N-type female jack on one end and a snap-on SMB male plug on the other. It is built for GPS/GNSS antenna runs in telematics and fixed installations, where every dB of cable loss comes straight off your link budget. Panorama's CS29 cable is double-screened 5 mm coax with a stranded centre conductor and semi-air-spaced dielectric, running at the 50-ohm impedance used across cellular, GNSS and Wi-Fi RF paths. The stranded centre conductor keeps the cable flexible for tight routing, while the double screen holds attenuation low across cellular, GNSS and ISM frequencies. 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 SMB plug mates with SMB jacks on GPS receivers and telematics modules. At the other end, the N jack connects to N-type male cable ends and antenna leads used in fixed outdoor installations. Typical uses include feeding a roof-mounted GNSS antenna to a router or gateway with GPS input and fleet telematics installs where the GNSS line must stay identifiable in a cable bundle. 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.
