Product Description​

The RAK1910 WisBlock GNSS Location Module module, part of the RAK Wireless Wisblock series, is a u-blox MAX-7Q GNSS (GPS, GLONASS, QZSS, and SBAS) module. This module features exceptional performance, high sensitivity, and minimal acquisition time, which makes it suitable for low-power IoT solutions. The RAK1910 positioning module is a GNSS receiver. It receives and tracks the GPS (including SBAS and QZSS) and the GLONASS signals. QZSS and SBAS signals (by default) can be received concurrently with GPS signals.
