About This Part
The Ericsson KRE1012082/1 is a high-performance active GPS antenna engineered to deliver precise timing and synchronization capabilities essential for modern telecommunications networks. As an integral component within Ericsson's extensive portfolio of network infrastructure solutions, this active antenna is typically deployed outdoors, featuring a ruggedized, compact form factor designed to withstand various environmental conditions. Its primary function involves receiving satellite signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) constellation, specifically operating within the L1 band (1575.42 MHz). The 'active' designation signifies the integration of a Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) directly within the antenna unit, which boosts weak satellite signals and improves the overall signal-to-noise ratio before transmission via coaxial cable to a base station or timing server. This ensures robust signal integrity and accuracy, enabling nanosecond-level timing precision crucial for protocols like PTP (Precision Time Protocol) and SyncE (Synchronous Ethernet) across diverse network elements. This active GPS antenna, Part Number KRE1012082/1, is critical for maintaining the operational integrity and performance of various network infrastructures. It is typically installed in outdoor environments, such as on rooftops, antenna masts, or communication towers, ensuring an unobstructed view of the sky for optimal satellite signal reception. The Ericsson KRE1012082/1 supports a wide range of network platforms, including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G base stations, microwave backhaul systems, and data center environments where precise time synchronization is paramount. Mobile network operators, fixed-line operators, and internet service providers extensively utilize such antennas to prevent network synchronization drift, which can lead to dropped calls, data transmission errors, and increased latency. By providing a stable and accurate timing reference, it enables efficient spectrum utilization, supports advanced network features requiring strict time alignment, and ensures compliance with regulatory timing requirements, effectively upgrading or replacing less robust or older passive antenna solutions. For B2B clients seeking cost-effective and reliable infrastructure solutions, Revo Distribution Limited offers used and refurbished units of the Ericsson KRE1012082/1 active GPS antenna.
