Trimble Takes Ultra Rugged to the Next Level with New GNSS Smart Antenna for Heavy Civil Construction

April 18, 2012

The SPS985 is the smallest and toughest GNSS receiver Trimble has ever built. With its enhanced internal shock isolation, the SPS985 is built for high-vibration use on an all-terrain vehicle (ATV), quad bike or supervisor truck. User-friendly features such as integrated Wi-Fi and wideband radio communications, quick release connector, and smart phone configuration make it easy to use as a pole-mounted rover or base station.
