|---|
| Antenna type and purpose | Active outdoor GNSS antenna | Active outdoor GNSS antenna | Omnidirectional roof 4G and GNSS antenna with 2.2 m cable | Omnidirectional roof 4G and GNSS antenna with 2.2 m cable | Multi-band omnidirectional 5G, LTE, GNSS, and Wi‑Fi 6 antenna | The Navilock models are dedicated exclusively to GNSS reception, whereas the DELOCK solutions provide combined cellular and navigation capabilities. |
| Connector type | N-connector | N-connector | Dual FAKRA connector (C and D) | Dual FAKRA connector (A and B) | SMA connector | Connector selection is critical to ensure direct physical compatibility with your specific navigation hardware, router, or modem. |
| Gain specification | 20 dB (active) | 18 dB (active) | 2 dBi / 28 dB | 2 dBi / 28 dB | 1.9–3.3 dBi | Navilock gain is optimized purely for satellite positioning, while DELOCK options balance cellular and positioning reception. |
◎ The evaluation of user needs, target scenarios, and mounting setups to help determine the most suitable product for specific requirements is shown in the table below.
| Use case | Recommended product | Why |
|---|
| Precise positioning and navigation with an N-connector | Navilock GNSS Antenna N-connector 20 dB active outdoor black 10 cm 60763 | Delivers reliable satellite signal reception with a 20 dB gain and a durable black outdoor housing. |
| Professional tracking with an alternative housing color | Navilock GNSS Antenna N Connector 18 dB Active Outdoor Grey 10 cm 60738 | Offers similar core positioning functionality in a grey housing with an 18 dB gain. |
| Vehicle roof mounting with combined 4G and GNSS reception | Outdoor Omni-directional Roof Antenna DELOCK 4G GNSS FAKRA C + FAKRA D 2 dBi / 28 dB 2.2 m RG-174 black | Ideal for vehicle routers and modems requiring simultaneous cellular connectivity and navigation via FAKRA connectors. |
| Universal multi-band wireless access for 5G, LTE, and Wi‑Fi 6 | Antenna DELOCK 81469 omnidirectional 5G LTE GNSS Wi‑Fi 6 SMA connector gain 1.9–3.3 dBi | Well-suited for gateways, routers, and modems that need to enhance mobile internet, Wi‑Fi, and satellite positioning simultaneously. |
The parent product Navilock GNSS Antenna N-connector 20 dB active outdoor black 10 cm 60763 differs from the alternatives by offering a dedicated, single-purpose solution focused strictly on GNSS satellite reception using an N-connector and a high active gain of 20 dB within a compact black housing. It is the most suitable choice for buyers who need reliable and targeted positioning performance without requiring cellular or Wi‑Fi integration. Conversely, the DELOCK alternatives are better suited if your setup demands multi-band connectivity (such as 4G, LTE, or Wi‑Fi) or specific connector interfaces like FAKRA and SMA.
