Standard Horizon SCU-31 GPS Smart Antenna

Standard Horizon SCU-31 GPS Antenna

The Standard Horizon SCU-31 is a high-performance external GPS smart antenna designed to provide precise positioning data for marine VHF radios and navigation systems. Featuring a 66-channel WAAS-enabled GPS receiver, it delivers rapid acquisition times, high sensitivity for reliable signal lock even in challenging conditions like enclosed bridges or urban canyons, and an accuracy of approximately 3 meters. The antenna comes with a generous 49-foot (15m) cable for flexible installation options, including base, pole, or flush mounting, and outputs NMEA 0183 data for easy integration. Its UV-protected white housing ensures longevity in harsh marine environments, making it an excellent upgrade for radios lacking built-in GPS or for enhancing signal strength in metal-hulled vessels.

Key Features:

• Receiver Specs: 66-channel WAAS GPS for fast fixes and high accuracy (3m); rapid acquisition for quick startup.
• Output and Connectivity: NMEA 0183 output; NMEA 2000 compatible with plug-and-play bus connectivity; includes mounting base and screws.
