The GPS L5 Signals are currently considered as "pre-operational" and not utilized by default in navigation solutions. However, it is possible to override the receiver's configuration to evaluate the GPS L5 signals. Please refer to the integration manual for more details. This is an operational limitation of the satellite/space segment and not an issue of the u-blox product. DAN-F10N Integration Manual

Product Overview

The SparkFun DAN-F10N Dualband GNSS Breakout is built around the powerful u-blox F10 engine, offering simultaneous reception of L1 and L5 frequency bands. This board leverages u-blox's advanced multipath mitigation technology to isolate the strongest signals, delivering reliable, meter-level position accuracy even in dense urban canyons. To ensure signal integrity, the module incorporates a robust SAW-LNA-SAW RF front-end with an additional notch filter (LTE B13), providing excellent rejection of interference from nearby cellular modems.

This breakout features a compact, integrated 20mm x 20mm x 8mm Right-Hand Circular Polarized (RHCP) dual-band patch antenna, offering a great balance of size and performance. Its wide beamwidth allows for flexible device orientation. For even greater utility, an onboard switch will enable you to easily connect an external dual-band antenna.

The DAN-F10N is fully supported by the u-blox u-center-2 software for configuration, data logging, and real-time performance analysis. It is also compatible with AssistNow (Online, Offline, and Autonomous) A-GNSS services for significantly faster satellite acquisition. You can interface with the module using the standard NMEA 4.11 and UBX binary protocols.
