Introducing the new NTRIP Base Station

We have launched the new NTRIP Base Station, a compact, modern solution designed to overcome GNSS correction range limits with full multi-constellation, multi-frequency support.

Equipped with the latest-generation quad-frequency GNSS engine, it delivers centimetre-level positional accuracy for proving grounds, test facilities and real-world automotive validation.

By combining a local radio transmitter with a built-in NTRIP server, the NTRIP Base Station removes traditional line-of-sight and range constraints. Corrections can be sent over the internet or via radio, enabling accurate, real-time positioning across much wider and more varied environments.

Launching in three models, with specifications to fit the users’ needs. All systems combine quad-constellation, dual-frequency GNSS technology with built-in cellular and Wi-Fi connectivity: 

  • Internal GNSS antenna and 2.4 GHz radio
    Quick to deploy for short-range applications (1–2 km), for temporary or mobile testing. 
  • Internal GNSS antenna, no radio
    Compact and simple, ideal for NTRIP or semi-permanent installations with external high-power radio masts. 
  • External GNSS antenna, no radio
    Optimised for permanent installations with tripod-mounted antennas for maximum satellite visibility, supporting NTRIP or external radio. 

Compatible with VBOX 4, VBOX 3iS, and external GNSS rovers, the new NTRIP Base Station supports both MSM4 and MSM7 RTCM formats, has up to 24 hours battery life, and is rated to IP67 to handle the demands of long outdoor test sessions. 

The NTRIP Base Station gives test engineers the flexibility to run corrections via internet or local radio, without being constrained by third-party infrastructure or line-of-sight. It delivers survey-grade accuracy in a practical format designed for everyday automotive testing.
