Sierra GPS Receiver 68755P, 25 ft. NMEA 0183 Marine GPS Antenna
The Sierra 68755P is a marine GPS receiver with a 25 foot cable, built to deliver precise positioning data to your onboard electronics even when the antenna is mounted out of direct sky view. Its highly sensitive receiver element continues to output accurate location information when installed under a fiberglass console or under a bimini top, making it a practical choice for boats where a fully exposed antenna mount is not possible or not desired.
Output is via the NMEA 0183 protocol, the standard communication format used by marine chartplotters, autopilots, and other navigation electronics, so it is intended to feed position data into a compatible NMEA 0183 device. The receiver updates once every second, providing a steady stream of current position data for real-time navigation. The housing has a durable exterior designed to hold up to the marine environment, and the 25 foot cable length gives installers flexibility in routing the antenna to a mounting location away from the connected display or navigation unit.
