Breaking boundaries in GNSS technology with a revolutionary, ready-to-use solution for reliable positioning and seamless integration.
Thalwil, Switzerland – March 11, 2025 – u-blox (SIX:UBXN), a global leader in positioning and short-range communication technologies for automotive, industrial and consumer markets, has achieved what was once thought impossible with the launch of the DAN-F10N - the industry’s smallest and most reliable L1, L5 dual-band GNSS antenna module. Featuring a market-leading compact dual-band patch antenna, innovative packaging technology, and a robust RF design, this cutting-edge module offers a turnkey solution for rapid time-to-market, reducing design complexity and manufacturing costs. Ideal for applications in asset tracking, aftermarket telematics, industrial automation and monitoring, consumer UAVs and sport trackers, the DAN-F10N ensures precise meter-level positioning, enhanced performance, and seamless integration - even for customers without RF expertise.
The DAN-F10N integrates the smallest L1, L5 dual-band patch antenna in the market (20x20x8mm), offering an exceptional balance between size and performance. Its patent-pending packaging technology ensures it is a surface-mounting device, enabling automated manufacturing and simplifying integration for product developers.
The SAW-LNA-SAW RF architecture, combined with an LTE B13 notch filter in the L1 RF path, significantly improves out-of-band jamming immunity, making the module highly robust when operating near cellular modems - a critical factor for applications such as asset tracking and telematics.
By combining superior performance, ease of integration, and robust reliability, the
DAN-F10N antenna module accelerates development cycles and enables innovative GNSS solutions across industries.
The DAN-F10N is a future-proof solution, equipped with internal flash memory for firmware upgradeability, ensuring long-term reliability and adaptability. Additionally, it supports an antenna switch function, allowing seamless operation with either the built-in patch antenna or an external L1, L5 dual-band active GNSS antenna for enhanced flexibility.
The DAN-F10N L1, L5 dual-band antenna module is now available for prototyping, with engineering samples expected by the end of April 2025.
