Navigate with Garmin caliber GPS data on the mobile device of your choice.
The GLO 2 receiver brings you the best of both worlds by combining GPS and
GLONASS receivers with Bluetooth® wireless technology so you can enjoy precise
position information on your iPad, iPhone or Android device.
The
Accuracy of GPS and GLONASS
GLO 2 can receive position
information from both the GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations, allowing it
to connect to up to 24 more satellites than devices that rely on GPS alone. This
allows GLO 2 to lock on to satellites approximately 20% faster and remain
connected even at high speed. What’s more, GLO 2 updates its position
information at 10 times per second; that’s up to 10 times more often than the
GPS receivers in many mobile devices.
Set It up and Go
Using Bluetooth technology, the GLO 2 receiver wirelessly pairs to your mobile
device. Just set GLO 2 within range of your mobile device, and in moments,
you’ll be receiving the GLO 2 receiver’s position data. It has up to 13 hours of
battery life to keep your position on long trips, and charging GLO 2 between
uses is easy with the included USB cable or optional 12/24 V vehicle power
cable. The optional friction mount keeps the receiver safe on your dashboard and
in full view of satellites.
The Garmin GLO 2 includes:
Also available as a special bundle specifically for aviation, the Garmin GLO For Aviation.
