Figure 11 Top View Showing DSRC Antenna Connectors
A suitable GNSS antenna with an SMA connector can be used to connect to the RSU. The
SMA connector is found at the bottom of the enclosure. The operator may choose a magnetic
mount antenna or an antenna with a separate mounting capability. When ordered, Savari
typically supplies a magnetic mount GPS antenna with at least 1 meter RG-174 or equivalent
cable. Ensure that the GNSS antenna is placed such that it has a clear view of the sky. It has
been found that a GPS or a GPS + GLONAS antenna can be used.

For extra protection, wrap self-sealing electrical tape around the antenna connectors and the
GPS connector to prevent water from entering. The tape should cover the entire RSU
connector, the antenna connector and at least an inch of the antenna cable or the antenna
itself.
