MRB-5007-1G is a ready-to-go Radio Module containing VHF & UHF transmitter (Homing signal 121.5MHz & Cospas-Sarsat signal 406.031 MHz), ideally suited for COSPAS-SARSAT first generation distress beacons on single antenna. An embedded GNSS receiver allows encryption of the position in the C/S message.
Based on further expected releases of its embedded GNSS receiver, and further firmware upgrades, the MRB5007 will offer the possibility to have the Cospas-Sarsat Return Link Service (RLS) when full SAR Galileo operational capabilities will be available.
