Key features:
  1. Excellent GPS performance without the need to use an USB Extension Cable
    Majority of the USB GPS dongles in the market require an USB extension cable to be used to extend the GPS antenna away from the laptop or a GPS position fix may not be obtained or takes forever to obtain a position fix. This is due to the fact that notebook / laptop produces electrical interference that weakens the GPS signal in the nearby vicinity.

    The Canmore USB GPS Stick Dongle is an exception; thanks to the enhanced antenna and RF frequency tuning implemented in the Canmore USB GPS Stick Dongle, it could obtain GPS position fix without the need of an USB extension cable.

  2. Supports A-GPS (aka Assisted GPS), which shorten GPS position fix time to 15 seconds from 30 seconds
    With the supplied A-GPS software (PC application), users may download the most updated satellite data (known as almanac) from SkyTraq servers and store the satellite data in to the Canmore USB GPS stick dongle.

  3. Rubberize coating on the top surface of the USB GPS dongle for easy removal.
