Navigate with Garmin GPS Data on Your Preferred Mobile Device
The GLO 2 receiver offers the best of both worlds by combining GPS and GLONASS receivers with Bluetooth® wireless technology, allowing you to enjoy precise positioning information on your iPad®, iPhone®, or Android™ device.
GPS and GLONASS Accuracy GLO 2 can receive position information from both GPS and GLONASS satellite constellations, enabling it to connect to 24 more satellites than devices that use only GPS. This allows GLO 2 to lock onto satellite positions approximately 20% faster and remain connected even at high speeds. Additionally, GLO 2 updates its position information 10 times per second—up to 10 times more frequently than most mobile device GPS receivers.
Setup and Getting Started Thanks to its Bluetooth technology, the GLO 2 receiver wirelessly pairs with your mobile device. Simply place the GLO 2 within your mobile device’s Bluetooth range, and you will start receiving position data in moments. GLO 2 offers 13 hours of battery life to maintain positioning during long trips, and recharging between uses is easy with the included USB cable or the optional 12/24 V vehicle power cable. The optional adhesive mount protects the receiver on your dashboard, ensuring a clear satellite view.
