Overview
This complete connection kit enables you to pick up the signal from public WiFi hotspots** more efficiently from your boat:
- It provides much better Internet access (for iPad, PC, smartphone, or other tablet) at anchor or in port... provided, of course, that there's a public access point not too far away.
- It lets you share the connection with the whole crew from a single access point.
- Once the devices are connected to the on-board network, they will have access to the Internet as soon as it becomes available, either via a hotspot or a 3/4G key (not supplied).
Its omnidirectional antenna is particularly effective at anchor, where the rotation of the boat on its anchor usually causes signal loss with conventional antennas.
The Ethernet cable connection between the antenna and its access point eliminates the need for coaxial cable and signal loss: system performance is identical whatever the length of Ethernet cable used.
Kit composition
The kit consists of :
- a WiFi router for installation in the boat
- an external antenna
- an outdoor access point amplifier
- a balcony mounting bracket
- and various interconnection and power cables.
It's easy to install without any prior knowledge, thanks to the supplied set-up instructions. Initial setup is performed wirelessly from a computer or tablet.
For physical installation, you'll need to provide grommets for the external cable (not supplied).
