Chapter 5. GPS adapter cable specification
5.1 J1 – GPS Receiver connection
This is a standard 10-pin “mil-spec” socket, conforming to MIL-DTL-26482 (formerly MIL-C-26482). A typical part-number is 02E-12-10S although the initial “02E” varies with manufacturer. Suitable mating connectors have part-numbers like ***-12-10P and are available from Amphenol, ITT Cannon and others |

5.3 Integrated GPS power supply inlet
The integrated power supply unit accepts an AC input voltage of between 100 V and 240 V at 50 Hz or 60 Hz. The input supply should be capable of providing 1.7 A.
The power inlet is a standard C14 connector, conforming to IEC 60320-1. They are very widely available, as are suitable C13 mating connectors. No pin-out details are given here. It is recommended that commercially-available power cables with moulded connectors are used. |
