Septentrio mosaic-X5 Price: Board vs Receiver Box Options

Septentrio mosaic-X5 price guide comparing OEM board and receiver box configurations from Eview GNSS

There is no single “Septentrio mosaic-X5 price” — the mosaic-X5 is a receiver family that ships as a bare OEM board, an integrated receiver box, or an embedded module, and each configuration quotes differently. What you actually pay is driven by form factor, options, volume, and support. This guide breaks down where the money goes and how to get an official quote quickly.

Get a quote — talk to an engineer
Tell Eview GNSS how you plan to use the receiver (integration, environment, accuracy target, quantity) and get a spec-matched quotation, not a generic list price. Request a quote and an engineer will reply with the configuration that fits your project.

What actually determines the price of a mosaic-X5?

Septentrio does not publish list prices, and no honest reseller will give you one number over the phone, because a “mosaic-X5” means different products to different buyers. The quote is assembled from four variables:

  • Form factor. A bare mosaic-X5 board for OEM integration costs a fraction of a complete receiver box. The board is the same engine; the box adds enclosure, connectors, antenna input protection, cabling, and factory testing.
  • Configuration & options. Single-antenna vs dual-antenna heading, IMU integration, and interface options (UART/USB/CAN/Ethernet variants) change the SKU and the price.
  • Volume. One-off evaluation units quote differently from production runs of 50 or 500 units. If you are an OEM planning a product, say so up front — per-unit price drops with committed volume.
  • Support channel. Buying through an authorized channel like Eview GNSS includes pre-sales engineering (antenna selection, correction setup, integration review) and local warranty handling that grey-market imports skip.

Board vs receiver box: where the money goes

Most price confusion comes from comparing a board quote with a box quote. Here is what each line item actually buys:

Considerationmosaic-X5 OEM boardComplete receiver box
What you receiveReceiver module + breakout/interface, design files & docsReceiver in rugged enclosure, connectors, antenna input, tested as a unit
Integration effortYou design the carrier board, power, RF path, and enclosurePlug in antenna and power, configure, deploy
Typical buyerOEMs embedding GNSS into drones, robots, machinesSurvey, monitoring, machine-control, and field teams
Where the budget goesThe receiver itself + your engineering timeReceiver + enclosure, antenna, cabling & support
Volume advantageStrong — price drops with production quantityModerate — box builds are lower-volume

If you are comparing an OEM module quote against a ready-to-run box, compare total system cost — box price minus the engineering hours you would spend bringing a board to production. Browse OEM GNSS boards and modules to see the module-level options available.

Why AIM+ anti-jamming matters more than the sticker price

A low quote on a receiver that loses lock near power lines, radio towers, or other RF emitters is not a bargain — it is a second purchase waiting to happen. Septentrio’s AIM+ (Advanced Interference Mitigation) is embedded in the mosaic-X5 itself, so anti-jamming does not mean bolting an external “jammer box” onto your system. In public Jammertest campaigns, AIM+ receivers held centimeter-level RTK accuracy through dense real-world interference that knocked consumer-grade modules offline. For field deployments, the practical question is what an unlocked receiver costs per outage. See how anti-jamming and anti-spoofing GNSS technology applies to your environment before you fixate on unit price.

How to get an accurate mosaic-X5 quote (and what to send)

Send Eview GNSS these details and the quotation will match your real need, not a generic SKU:

  • Application & environment: surveying, drone, robot, machine, monitoring — and any known interference sources (power lines, transmitters, urban canyons).
  • Accuracy & dynamics: RTK centimeter-level, or PPP; static or moving; do you need heading from a second antenna?
  • Form factor: board for integration or a ready-to-run receiver box.
  • Interfaces: UART, USB, Ethernet, CAN, or PPS/timing output for your host system.
  • Quantity & timeline: one unit, a pilot batch, or production volume — and when you need it.

Request a quote with those points, or review the mosaic-X5 product page first and come back with configuration questions.

FAQ

How much does a Septentrio mosaic-X5 cost?

There is no public list price. A low-volume professional multi-band RTK board typically quotes in the thousands of dollars (USD); a receiver box adds enclosure, antenna, and cabling. The accurate number comes only from a quote matched to your configuration — send your requirements and get one.

Why is there no Septentrio price list online?

Septentrio sells through authorized distributors and integrators who quote per project. Volume, options (heading, IMU, interfaces), and support scope all move the number, so a fixed list price would mislead most buyers.

Is a bare board cheaper than a receiver box?

Yes on unit price — but only part of the story. The board needs your carrier design, enclosure, and RF engineering before it becomes a working product. The box costs more up front and is deployable immediately. Compare total cost of ownership, not sticker price.

Does AIM+ anti-jamming cost extra on the mosaic-X5?

AIM+ is integrated into the receiver itself, so you are not paying for an external interference-mitigation box. Configuration choice and options move the quote far more than the mitigation technology.

Do I get a better price for volume or OEM quantities?

Generally yes. Evaluation and prototype units are priced higher than committed production quantities. Tell your Eview GNSS contact your projected volume and they will structure the quotation accordingly.

How fast can I get a quotation?

Typically within one working day when you provide the five details above. Stock availability and lead time are confirmed in the same response.
