Ideal for precise, reliable positioning in automotive and mobile applications. ## Description Android supported (app required). MAKE SURE YOUR SOFTWARE CAN SUPPORT GN SENTENCES. FOR WINDOWS APP YOU NEED BU-353W11. Brand new, very high sensitivity chipset (Tracking Sensitivity: -165 dBm) Extremely fast TTFF (Time To First Fix) at low signal level. Support NMEA 0183 data protocol. Built-in Backup power to reserve system data for rapid satellite acquisition. Built-in patch antenna. Super-cohesive magnetic for mounting on the car. Water resisted and non-slip on the bottom USB interface connection port. Review: USB connection makes set-up simple - This a great little GPS receiver and a really good price point. It is NEMA-0183 compliant so it will work with most positioning applications. We use it in our Victron Energy solar installation to automatically track location which helps with solar irradiance forecasting no matter where we roam in our RV. It plugs directly into a USB port on our Cerbo GX (the "brains" of the installation) and required no additional set-up. Even installed in a basement compartment on the Class A RV it is able to track up to 17-30 satellites. You almost can't go wrong with this receiver. Review: Works great, quick setup, good instructions - Works great. Downloaded their driver, from their website (no 3rd party stuff) per included instructions and checked com port per instructions and entered data in OpenCPN and it worked first try. Wasted hours with other cheaper GPS from desertcart that I could not get to work and returned. This one works and is accurate. ## Features - Android supported (app required) - Built-In Roof Mount Magnet - 75-Channel All-In-View Trackin - GPS GLONASS GALILEO BEIDOU QZSS SBAS Support - Built-In GPS Patch Antenna ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0B1W1YBZC | | Additional Features | USB | | Best Sellers Rank | #29,945 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #5 in Satellite Television Receivers | | Brand | GlobalSat | | Built-In Media | Quick Start Guide, Suction Cup | | Compatible Devices | Windows, Mac, Android, Linux | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Car | | Connectivity Protocol | NMEA 0183 | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Control Method | Touch | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 28 Reviews | | Display Type | LED | | Human-Interface Input | Buttons | | Item Type Name | USB GPS | | Manufacturer | GlobalSat WorldCom Coporation | | Map Types | Global | | Mfr Part Number | BU-353N5 | | Model Name | BU-353N5 | | Model Number | BU-353N5 | | Model Year | 2022 | | Mounting Type | Roof Mount | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Operating System | Multiple (Android, Windows, Mac, Linux) | | Screen Size | 5 | | Special Feature | USB | | Supported Satellite Navigation System | GPS | | Touch Screen Type | Resistive | | UPC | 795945000016 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Car | | Warranty Description | 1 year warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** GlobalSat - **Model Name:** BU-353N5 - **Vehicle Service Type:** Car - **Screen Size:** 5 - **Special Feature:** USB - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Map Type:** Global - **Included Components:** Quick Start Guide, Suction Cup - **Mounting Type:** Roof Mount - **Item Weight:** 0.11 Kilograms ## Images ![BU-353-N5 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61l305pCbgL.jpg) ![BU-353-N5 - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61smp5dCZtL.jpg) ![BU-353-N5 - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/713e5iF5gqL.jpg) ![BU-353-N5 - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ioMj4Xx+L.jpg) ![BU-353-N5 - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5148QPquH5L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ USB connection makes set-up simple *by A***R on December 12, 2025* This a great little GPS receiver and a really good price point.
