[OPLINTECH] Bookmobile Wireless Connections

[Kyle - Home E-mail]

Morgan,

 

I would recommend something like thins hockey puck style antenna. You will
have to make sure your air-cards support external antennas.  They are Low
profile so putting them on the roof of a Bookmobile will not cause any
issues and you will have plenty of signal gain. There are versions that are
both permanent mount and mag mount.. I am guessing you will want permanent.
This is just one real quick search.. I bought some when I was at Newark from
someplace in New Jersey..

It's a start..

Hello,

 

We are having trouble maintaining a connection with our current aircards on
our bookmobile.

 

One of the areas we are investigating is the antenna and booster.

 

For those of you with aircards and external antennas, what would you
recommend?

 

We are on Verizon and we do NOT have 4g through the majority of our service
area.

 

 

Thanks,

 

Morgan
