MA-104 Taoglas Hercules Low Profile Heavy Duty Screw Mount Antenna

MA-104 Taoglas Hercules Low Profile Heavy Duty Screw Mount Antenna

The Hercules MA-104, is a waterproof, combination high performance GPS and Quad-band Cellular (GSM/CDMA/PCS/DCS) antenna design as an ideal solution for AVL or fleet management applications. 

Hercules incorporates XtremeGain, the industry’s most advanced GPS active ceramic patch technology, allowing for gains of up to 300% in accuracy compared to traditional antennas. Hercules has been designed for heavy duty applications and so features extra thick threads and strong washers for sturdy installation. Its outer casing is manufactured from durable UV resistant PVC, protecting it from vandalism and direct attack. It also features convenient side slots so that the antenna cables can run easily from the side.

This combination of a high gain GPS antenna and a leading edge quad band cellular antenna is ideal for those applications that require durability and reliable reception and transmission crossing through different mobile networks.

The standard product (MA-104) is supplied with 5 meters of RG-174 cable and is terminated with an SMA (Male) connector for GSM and SMB connector for GPS. Now also available with Molex Fakra connectors for use in automotive applications. Cable lengths and connector fittings can also be changed to suit your own bespoke requirements.  

Please contact our sales team if you have any bespoke requirements.
