SIMRAD GS10 
GPS Smart Antenna

Introduction

The GS10 GPS Smart Antenna is a self-contained position provider 
for a navigation system. The antenna can be mounted in the ex-
posed environment on a ship, and will supply position data, time, 
SOG and COG, using NMEA2000 protocols on Simrad’s SimNet data-
bus.

The GS10 contains a 12-parallel channel GPS receiver with WAAS 
and EGNOS. It comes with a fixed 5 m (16.4’) SimNet cable with 
connector, ready to connect to a Tee Joiner on the SimNet system, 
or navigation product. 

Installation

This paper informs how to install your GS10 GPS Smart Antenna and 
connect it to a NMEA2000/SimNet network using SimNet network 
components.
