Multi-frequency, multi-constellation GNSS positioning and heading receiver, which includes wired and wireless communications in a rugged IP68 housing, for the broadest range of applications.
KEY FEATURES
* Full-constellation, triple-frequency satellite tracking on both antennas
* Sub-degree GNSS heading & pitch or heading & roll
* Centimetre-level (RTK)
* Septentrio GNSS+ algorithms for reliable performance
* Integrated UHF radio, cellular modem, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi (depending on configuration)
BENEFITS
Consistently accurate now and into the future
The AsteRx-U3 is the most advanced integrated multiconstellation dual-antenna receiver from Septentrio. Its multifrequency engine can track signals from all Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) constellations: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, NavIC and QZSS – on both antennas. This guarantees you reliable and accurate GNSS positioning now and into the future.
Reliable centimetre accuracy
Septentrio’s knowledge and 20 years of experience in the GNSS industry ensures that the AsteRx-U3 offers the highest possible accuracy, down to the centimetre level. LOCK+ technology maintains tracking during heavy vibrations and IONO+ ensures position accuracy even during periods of elevated ionospheric activity. The AsteRx-U3 offers the very latest in advanced interference mitigation technology AIM+, which filters out ambient intentional and unintentional RF interference.
Any device, any platform
Use any device with a web browser to operate the AsteRx-U3 without any special configuration software via the Web interface, accessible over Ethernet, Wi-Fi or USB connections.
