Tallysman TW5384 GNSS Smart Antenna
Overview
The Calian (formerly Tallysman) 33-5384-27-10-05-PC0 is an integrated dual-band GNSS smart antenna that combines a high-performance antenna element with a built-in receiver. This rugged dome-style unit provides NMEA data output over an RS-232 interface and supports multiple constellations including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou. Designed for harsh environments, it features an IP69K-rated housing and operates across a wide input voltage range up to 36V.
Why Choose This Part
The all-in-one design eliminates RF cable loss and complex impedance matching between an external antenna and a separate receiver module. Its IP69K rating ensures survival during high-pressure washdowns and extreme weather, while the wide 36V maximum voltage rating simplifies power integration with industrial and automotive electrical systems.
Applications
Key Specifications
Getting Started
Integration requires connecting the RJ45 interface to an RS-232 serial port for NMEA data and a power source within the device's voltage range. Because it is a smart antenna, no external GNSS software stack is required beyond a standard serial terminal or NMEA parser to interpret the navigation strings. Ensure the dome has a clear line-of-sight to the sky for optimal multi-constellation lock.
