PwrPak7D
Compact dual-antenna enclosure
delivers scalable positioning
performance with internal storage
Future-proofed scalability

Benefits

Capable of tracking all present and upcoming Global Navigation Satellite
System (GNSS) constellations and satellite signals, the PwrPak7D is a robust,high‑precision receiver that is software upgradeable in the field to provide thecustom performance required for your application.

Dual-antenna input
Multi-frequency, dual-antenna input allows the PwrPak7D to harness the power ofRTK and ALIGN functionality. This makes the PwrPak7D ideal for ground, marine,
rail or aircraft-based systems, providing industry-leading GNSS multi-constellation
heading and position data in static and dynamic environments.

• Small, low-power GNSS enclosure• Easy integration into space andweight constrained applications• Rugged design ideal for challengingenvironments• Enhanced connection options
including serial, USB, CAN andEthernet

Enhanced connectivity
Compact and lightweight, the PwrPak7D is well suited for rover applications. It hasa powerful OEM7 GNSS engine inside and offers built-in Wi-Fi, onboard NTRIP clientand server support and 16 GB of internal storage. It also has enhanced connection
options including serial, USB, CAN and Ethernet.

Precise thinking makes it possible
Our GNSS products are developed for efficient and rapid integration and have
set the standard in quality and performance for over 20 years. State-of-the-art
lean manufacturing facilities in our North American headquarters produce theindustry’s most extensive line of OEM receivers, antennas and subsystems. Our
products are backed by a team of highly-skilled design and customer support
engineers ready to answer your integration questions.

SPAN GNSS+INS technology
With SPAN GNSS+INS technology from Hexagon | NovAtel, the PwrPak7D caninterface with supported IMUs to provide a superior position, velocity and attitude
solution and bridge GNSS outages.
