SMART Antenna Interface Cable (Optional Accessory)

The NovAtel part number for the SMART Antenna interface cable is 01019944. This cable provides access to all of the signals available on the SMART Antenna 14-pin Tyco Ampseal connector. The exposed wires (BATT+ and BATT-) can then be connected to a vehicular power circuit (or equivalent) protected by a 5 A slow blow fuse (user supplied).

The following SMART Antennas use this cable:

  • SMART7

  • SMART7 with RELAY7

  • SMART2

The SMART Antenna interface cable is also compatible with the Ag-Star, SMART6 and SMART6-L.

In the following diagram, the dimensions are in millimetres.

This cable is also used when the RELAY7 is connected to the SMART7. When the RELAY7 is connected to the SMART7, PPS and COM3 are not available.
