Multi-GNSS Vector Smart Antennas Launched
NMEA 0183 and NMEA 2000, and continuing to offer ease of installation, these Vector models continue to offer the exceptional value and performance Hemisphere is known for. The V123 and V133 thrive in Radar/ARPA, AIS, ECDIS, side-scan survey, multi- and single-beam surveys, dredging, and general navigation applications. The V123 and V133 rugged smart antennas combine Hemisphere's recently announced Crescent Vector H220 OEM board and two superior multipath- and noise-rejecting antennas (spaced 50 cm apart) in a single enclosure. The smart antennas require only a single power/data cable connection for fast
