SENCITY®Avant

We have extended the SENCITY Rail family with a new light weight series called SENCITY Avant.
The SENCITY Avant series is a much more cost effective solution for applications that require a less stringent overhead voltage protection (less than 10kA) than what is offered with the current SENCITY Rail family (40kA) This can be used in applications such as diesel locomotives, trams, buses, metros and trolleys.
As with the SENCITY Rail family the new SENCITY Avant series comprises of 3 variations, standard without GPS, passive GPS and with active GPS. In response to the needs of the market we have also included SENCITY Avant antennas with QN and QN + QMA connectors in addition to the standard N connector. The QN allows for a very easy mount and provides excellent performance in regards to vibration.
For applications requiring 2.4 and 5 GHz, please refer to the broadband omni-directional.
