Welcome to the future of modern RTK
GPS+ Systems! The new Topcon
HiPer
®
Lite+!
NOW Dual-Constellation! GPS + GLONASS!
Finally, a complete RTK GPS+ system that
leaves behind the mess of complicated, tangled
cables we have come to expect at the typical
RTK base station. While our competitors
choose to only focus on one half of the
system, Topcon is once again leading the
industry by providing the WORLD’S FIRST
completely cable-free system!
That’s right, no more hassles of an RTK Base Station with it’s
convoluted mess of external batteries, antennas, and RTK radios that
were all connected with fragile cables. Topcon has designed a
complete, integrated RTK Base & Rover system that is completely
cable free. No more cables to break, and no more wasted time of a
difficult base receiver setup. That’s why we call this system HiPer Lite+.
Less equipment to carry into the field, and less to forget back at
the office!
The secret to HiPer Lite+ is the advanced internal radio technology that
has allowed Topcon to create an integrated system where others still
offer a complicated mess of cables. The new design incorporates a
high performance 915 MHz Spread Spectrum radio that provides
superior interference-free communications up to 1.5 miles on your
job site.
But don’t let the name HiPer Lite+ fool you.
This compact little system still packs a
powerful punch. HiPer Lite+ incorporates
Topcon’s advanced 40 channel dual-
frequency GPS+ technology, the Paradigm™
Chip, and offers all the Topcon advances in
tracking technology such as Co-Op™ tracking,
Advanced Multipath Reduction (AMR).
HiPer Lite+ is not only free from cable hassles, it’s also Lite on your
wallet as well. Starting at a price well below a typical RTK GPS+
system the Topcon HiPer Lite has finally broken the long time price
barrier that separated many customers from the benefits of RTK
GPS+ technology. Now advanced technology precision GPS+ is
available at a price tag that won’t break the bank.
A lot is changing in the World of precision GPS+ technology, and
Topcon is proud to be leading the way with the most advanced,
innovative systems available. With over 70 years of experience and
leadership in the precision measuring industry, it should come as no
surprise. So when considering your precision GPS+ options, take a
good look at the new HiPer Lite+. We’re confident you’ll see for
yourself what everyone’s talking about!
Superior Technology. Superior Design.
Only from Topcon, the World leader in
precision positioning technology!

1 Specifications are subject to change without notice. Performance specifications
assume a minimum of 6 GPS or 7 GPS/GLONASS satellites above 15 degrees in
elevation and adherence to procedures recommended by TPS in the appropriate
manuals. In areas of high multipath, during periods of high PDOP and during peri-
ods of high Ionospheric activity performance may be degraded. Robust checking
procedures are highly recommended in areas of extreme multipath or under dense
foliage.
