Does the Garmin GPSMAP 541s have an internal GPS antenna or is an external antenna required?

There is an internal antenna built into the unit. An external antenna is used when the unit is installed on an inner cabin of a big boat. When the unit is installed in an open air position the internal antenna is more than enough for the unit to perform flawlessly. I use mine with no antenna and I could not be happier with the way my unit has worked for me. John

The 546s works great out of the box I have no external antenna. This is my third Garmin product all work excellent. I still have one that's from the 90's that works. Take care of the screen this is a must.

You may need a car kit, the GPS antenna comes with the car. I live in California and did the Installation at a Fry's electronics.

The GPS is built in...but...unless you put the Micro cell in a room with a window, you will need an antenna. They are also for sale on Amazon. With a few exceptions, a micro cell with external antenna will give you 5 bars in your entire house. At least that is what we get.

GPS is separate. It has an internal antenna. Call support if you do not get it resolved. I love mine.

The unit comes furnished with a GPS antenna, so you don't have to buy one separately.

Shouldn't be a problem with a USB extension cord if it's just "straight through" USB. I never tried an external GPS.

Are you asking because you actually want to get xm radio, or because you think it needs an antenna to navigate? I've never read any literature or seen anything in the 760 menu indicating any kind of satellite radio functionality. Unless you're trip planning indoors away from a window, you won't need ANY kind of external antenna.

I don't believe there is a traffic antenna built in this power cable. It powers the unit but that's it. The original cable for the GPS has a built in antenna.

No. The GPS antenna that came with the Verizon Network Extender worked as well as this GPS antenna when I tested them. I also purchased an extender cable so I could have a long enough cable to reach a window for the GPS antenna to work.

The only thing you need is the camera, it said that brings the camera, but it only have the cable and the camera app installed, and another thing, the radio have gps but you have to buy the antenna . If you press the gps icon the screen will turn black and you can't do anything, you have to put a DvD or connect the phone. The radio is perfect, I don't know why the manufacturer discontinued it,because the radio works perfect. Sorry for my bad English, my first language is Spanish, im bad at the English. If you have another question you know what to do.

The unit goes thru a boot-up process, which can take several minutes. During that procedure it must connect to the internet AND acquire the GPS satellite thru an antenna that is typically stuck to the inside glass of a window. The GPS antenna has a generously long cord. The GPS is required so that any 911 calls can give your location to enhanced 911 (E911) response centers if you ever have to dial 911. The unit IS dead to all calls without the GPS because it will not boot up.

It has one. But it is not worth the money. I ended up smashing the hell out of mine on frustration. The gps worked fine for 2 months and then never again. And if the gps fails you think that all you have to do is wait for better signal and then start the process however there is no way to restart the thing. I bought a polar m400. Completely better.

This unit has an internal antenna but you can buy an external antenna from Lowrance

The ENS202EXT has external antennas. This allows the antenna to be located in possibly better areas for reception... http://www.engeniustech.com/products/outdoor-access-points-client-bridges/ap-bridges-outdoor/ens202ext.htmlThe ENS202 has a directional internal antenna. http://www.engeniustech.com/products/outdoor-access-points-client-bridges/ap-bridges-outdoor/ens202ext.html
