1. Introduction
The A.01 Hercules is a high performance thread mount GPS antenna designed for
external use on vehicles and outdoor assets. Designed for heavy duty work with one
piece C&C machined nickel steel base plate and threads, there are also convenient
side slots for running cables laterally. Durable UV resistant ABS housing is resistant
to vandalism and direct attack. At only 29mm high it complies with the latest EU
