Application

4G/5G internet for motorhomes and caravans

Connect onboard devices through a cellular router inside the vehicle. An external antenna can help with reception, but the operator coverage, antenna placement and cable loss still determine the connection.

A typical installation includes the roof antenna, cellular cables, an interior router and a fused DC supply.

Roof antenna, interior router and DC power

Choose a dry, ventilated router position with access to the SIM and cables. Check the vehicle supply against the router input range, and keep antenna cables as short as the installation allows.

  • SIM and operator coverage in the countries of use
  • Roof space, antenna connections and cellular cable length
  • DC voltage, fuse, connector and power-off behaviour
  • Ethernet equipment and expected Wi-Fi client count
  • Mounting position and access for service
