4G Connect is a new 2G/3G/4G (LTE) internet access solution to get internet on a boat. It utilises the latest MIMO technology with dual antennas for fast, long range access and incorporates a full function wifi router so multiple devices can connect wirelessly. There is also a wired LAN port and WAN port – for connection to high power wifi devices or satellite modems.
The Pro model ships with two external hi gain antennas for exceptional long range performance and is the recommended solution for use afloat.
4G Connect has an easy to use interface and is unlocked so users are free to fit a data SIM card from any mobile provider they choose. However, during our testing, we have found that the lower frequencies used by the Vodafone network coupled with a competitive European data roaming allowance, offer the best maritime solution for European cruising yachtsman.
Operation is simple – turn on, connect to the password protected wifi hotspot that 4G Connect creates and your device is online.
The 4G Connect Pro is provided with 23ft (7m) cable kit so if you need 33ft or 66ft cable, add in your cart the 33ft (10m)or 66ft (20m) cables kit.
