Details

Built for drone RTK and other positioning receivers, the BT-602/BT-603 helical antenna supports multi-band GNSS (model dependent) with RHCP polarization.

Specifications and support options are summarized for quick selection between BT-602 and BT-603 configurations.


Multi-constellation reception helps maintain stable tracking across GPS, BDS, GLONASS, GALILEO and other supported systems depending on the model.



Compact Φ40×84.5 mm housing keeps weight down while the UV-resistant shell supports long-term outdoor use.

SMA-J connectivity and three M2.5 mounting points simplify integration into custom drone and RTK enclosures.


Common use cases include drones, small RTK equipment, tracking/positioning systems, and research test setups.

Wiring and test references help plan receiver integration, including base/rover RTK positioning module connections.

Choose a single antenna, a set with base and 5 m SMA cable, or a full kit with receiver board and accessories based on your build.
