GPS antenna (A2/49a2) 

The satellite signals received are amplified in the antenna amplifier integrated in the GPS antenna (A2/49a2)  . This antenna amplifier is supplied with power via a coaxial antenna cable (phantom power supply). The amplified signals are then transmitted to the GPS control module integrated

via the same co-axial antenna cable.

If the vehicle is equipped with TELE AID and  COMAND the co-axial antenna cable for the GPS antenna (A2/49a2) is routed to the antenna splitter (A2/5). At both co-axial outlets of the antenna splitter the control modules (A35/8) and (A40/3) are connected.

The GPS antenna serves only for reception  of GPS signals (signals are not transmitted).

Telephone antenna (A2/49a1) 

The signals received by A2/49a1 are transmitted via a separate coaxial antenna cable.

Transmission is accomplished vice versa.

IMPORTANT The GPS reception frequencies are in the GHz range, the telephone reception and transmitter frequencies are in the upper MHz range. Each antenna is connected with the corresponding receiver with a separate co-axial cable.
