Topcon NET-G5 GNSS Reference Station Receiver

NET-G5 — GNSS Reference Station Receiver

The NET-G5 is a high-end GNSS reference-station receiver developed by Topcon, designed to serve as the backbone of GNSS reference networks, permanent or semi-permanent base stations (CORS), and high-precision surveying infrastructure. It combines advanced multi-constellation GNSS tracking with robust communications and rugged field-ready construction.

🔧 Key Features & Capabilities

• 452-Channel Vanguard Technology with Universal Tracking Channels — supports multi-frequency signals across all major GNSS constellations including GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, SBAS, and L-Band.

• High-Precision Measurements — supports static and fast-static measurement with horizontal accuracy of approximately 3 mm + 0.4 ppm and vertical accuracy of 5 mm + 0.5 ppm.

• Flexible Data Output & Update Rate — supports selectable update rates from 1 Hz to 100 Hz.

• Wide Connectivity & Communication Options — supports Ethernet, PoE, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, serial ports, USB host/device, OTG, and optional integrated cellular modem.

• Web-Based Interface & Remote Management — built-in management interface allows configuration and monitoring through the web.

• Storage & Data Logging — supports SD/SDHC cards up to 32 GB and external USB storage for long-term data logging.

• Rugged & Field-Ready Design — compact size (approx. 150 × 200 × 60 mm), lightweight (under 2 kg), low power consumption (< 5 W), IP67 dust/water protection, 2-meter drop-resistance, and MIL-STD-810G vibration/shock protection.

🎯 Typical Use Cases

The NET-G5 is ideal for:

• Permanent or semi-permanent GNSS reference stations (CORS networks).

• Providing a precise reference source for RTK or DGPS surveying, mapping, topography, utilities, and geodetic applications.

• Serving as a network hub for multiple rovers when paired with geodetic antennas and GNSS network infrastructure.

✅ Why NET-G5 Stands Out

• Supports all major GNSS constellations and multi-frequency signals for future-proof performance.

• High reliability and precision for demanding surveying and network applications.

• Advanced communication and data-management options make remote operations easier.

• Compact, rugged, and low-power design makes it suitable for harsh environments and permanent installations.
