An Ethernet GNSS receiver is a positioning device that transmits GNSS data via network interfaces instead of traditional serial connections.

The ANavS EMB Ethernet GNSS Receiver is a high-precision GNSS module designed for network-based positioning, timing, and synchronization applications. It enables seamless integration into IP-based systems such as industrial networks, robotics platforms, and infrastructure environments.

The EMB stands out due to its combination of high-precision GNSS and native Ethernet connectivity.

It supports RTK and PPP positioning, offers centimeter-level accuracy, and integrates directly into networks via Ethernet (100BASE-T). Additionally, it can act as a precise time server using IEEE 1588 PTP, making it suitable for both positioning and timing applications.

Ethernet GNSS receivers are used in networked and distributed systems.

Typical applications include:

• Autonomous vehicles and robotics
• Railway and smart infrastructure
• UAVs and mobile mapping
• Industrial automation and control systems
• Time synchronization in communication networks

The ANavS EMB is specifically designed for these high-performance and network-integrated environments.

The EMB provides centimeter-level positioning accuracy.

With RTK and multi-frequency GNSS support, it delivers highly precise real-time positioning, suitable for safety-critical and autonomous applications.

Ethernet GNSS enables scalable and networked system architectures.

The ANavS EMB allows remote access, real-time data streaming, and easy integration into distributed systems, unlike traditional point-to-point interfaces such as UART or USB.

The EMB is available in multiple configurations for different use cases:

• EMB-X5 → single antenna, high-precision positioning
• EMB-H → dual antenna, heading determination
• EMB-T → timing-focused version with 10 MHz clock input

This enables flexible deployment depending on application requirements.

Ethernet GNSS receivers transmit positioning data via IP networks.

The ANavS EMB uses 100BASE-T Ethernet to stream GNSS data, allowing integration into existing network infrastructures such as industrial Ethernet, edge computing systems, and cloud-connected platforms.

The EMB processes correction data to improve accuracy.

It supports RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) for local correction-based positioning and PPP (Precise Point Positioning) for global corrections, enabling flexible deployment across different environments.

The EMB can function as a precise network time source.

It supports IEEE 1588 Precision Time Protocol (PTP), enabling accurate time synchronization across distributed systems such as telecom networks, industrial automation, and sensor networks.

The EMB provides advanced multi-frequency, multi-constellation GNSS.

It supports GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, BeiDou, QZSS, and NavIC, ensuring high availability and robustness even in challenging environments.

Low latency and high update rates are critical.

The EMB offers:

• Up to 100 Hz update rate
• <10 ms latency
• High dynamic performance

These features make it suitable for robotics, autonomous systems, and control applications.

The EMB is designed for flexible deployment.

It can be powered via:

• Power over Ethernet (PoE)
• DC supply (7–25V)
• USB-C

It also supports Ethernet and USB communication interfaces, enabling easy integration into various system architectures.

Ethernet GNSS receivers are key components in distributed localization systems.

The ANavS EMB enables real-time GNSS data streaming across networks, supporting sensor fusion systems used in autonomous driving, robotics, and infrastructure monitoring.

Ethernet GNSS enables synchronized and scalable positioning systems.

The ANavS EMB is used in rail and infrastructure applications where precise positioning and time synchronization across multiple systems are required.

The EMB provides high-quality GNSS data as a network source.

In ANavS systems, this data is fused with IMU, LiDAR, and vision sensors to enable robust localization even in GNSS-challenged environments.

Ethernet GNSS receivers are network-based, while GNSS cards are locally integrated.

The ANavS EMB is ideal for distributed systems and remote access, whereas M.2 GNSS cards are better suited for tightly integrated embedded systems.

• Ethernet GNSS → high-precision positioning + network integration
• GNSS+INS → adds motion tracking and robustness

The ANavS EMB can be combined with IMU cards and sensor fusion systems to achieve full GNSS+INS functionality.

The EMB is the right choice when applications require:

• Network-based GNSS data distribution
• Time synchronization (PTP)
• High-precision positioning (RTK/PPP)
• Scalable, distributed system architectures

It is ideal for infrastructure, robotics fleets, and industrial automation.

Ethernet GNSS receivers are designed for modern, networked positioning systems.

The ANavS EMB Ethernet GNSS Receiver is a high-performance GNSS module based on the Septentrio Mosaic chipset. It offers multi-frequency, multi-constellation GNSS, RTK centimeter-level accuracy, and seamless Ethernet integration.

With support for IEEE 1588 PTP time synchronization, low latency, and high update rates, it is ideal for autonomous systems, smart infrastructure, robotics, and industrial networks requiring precise positioning and timing.
