Product catalog summary
Introduction
The R&S GPS129 is a GPS receiver combined with a reference frequency generator, designed for high precision in time and position data. It is suitable for various applications, including stationary, transportable, and mobile uses, and can be integrated into system racks due to its compact 19” rackmount design. The unit supports both AC and DC power supplies and offers remote-controlled operation for integration into monitoring systems.

Specifications
The GPS129 features a 6-channel C/A code receiver with an external antenna/converter unit. It provides high-accuracy frequency outputs of 2.048 MHz and 10 MHz, with frequency accuracy reaching ±1·10-12 when averaged over 24 hours. The unit's pulse accuracy is better than ±250 ns after synchronization and 20 minutes of operation. It meets EMC directives and is developed in compliance with ISO 9000 standards.

Control Elements and Interfaces
The front panel includes five LEDs indicating power, frequency accuracy, lock status, antenna faults, and errors. The rear panel hosts various interfaces, including two serial RS-232-C interfaces (COM0 and COM1), TTL inputs/outputs for time capture and pulse output, and BNC jacks for frequency outputs. The unit also includes an RF input for the GPS antenna and power supply inputs for both AC and DC models.

General Data
The GPS129 operates within a temperature range of 0°C to +50°C and supports up to 85% relative humidity. It is available in two models: one for 100 to 240 VAC operation and another for 19 to 35 VDC operation. The unit's dimensions are 483 mm x 44 mm x 345 mm, and it weighs 3 kg.

Ordering Information
The GPS129 is available in two basic versions, each including a GPS antenna: one for AC operation (model 3026.1010.02) and one for DC operation (model 3026.1010.04).
