HP 58503A

GPS Time & Frequency

Reference Receiver

w/HP 58532A GPS Reference Antenna & Software

The Hewlett-Packard 58503A GPS receiver provides a primary standard level of time & frequency accuracy in a true Plug-n-Play, portable package that can lock on GPS signals in virtually any locations in 5 to 25 minutes.   All these features combined provide a time base far more versatile then the Cesium standards they were designed to replace.  The HP 58503A generates precise 10MHz and 1pps signals using HP's proprietary SmartClock^TM technology utilizing a precision quartz oscillator and incorporates an RS232 port for monitoring and control.

This unit includes a Symmetricom (HP) 58532A GPS Reference Antenna which is designed to complement the performance of the HP 58503A.  Although this system is Plug-n-Play, many additional features can be accessed through the RS232 port from your computer using the included Operations Software.  Also included on the software CD is the manuals and additional technical information for the 58503B.   The accuracy of this GPS receiver's 10MHz output can be seen in the photos with the 53131A counter disciplined to our Cesium standard.  This setup demonstrates not only the receivers accuracy but exceptional sensitivity since the lab and antenna shown are on a sub floor of our building (below ground) and still provided an excellent GPS lock.  10MHz output can be configured to front or rear connector.
