Designed for low-profile mounting on the top of vehicles like police cruisers and ambulances, the MobileMark LTM series of antennas packs a lot of reception capability under a plastic dome. This style of antenna is a dome antenna with the cables routed through the base of the antenna. More information on installing these antennas can be found in the Antenna Installation - Low Profile Roof Mounts guide.
Combining MIMO cellular, GPS, and even Wi-Fi antennas - the MobileMark is well matched to plug directly into high-end cellular embedded routers by Pepwave and Cradlepoint.
The LTM series comes in almost two dozen variants, and custom configurations can be ordered directly from MobileMark and other vendors.
Here is an overview of the more interesting options for mobile users. Note that the model numbers all include "LTM." Other letters are added to this to denote additional features such as magnetic mount ("M") and GNSS/GPS ("G"):

MobileMark has also made a pole-mount kit, the LTM-PMK to mount their MobileMark LTM series of antennas without needing an additional ground plane. The heavy duty bracket is designed for quick and easy installation to a pole mount. This kit does not include the actual pole. You may be able to purchase the antenna unit with this mount.
News, Videos, & Status
In the Fall of 2020 MobileMustHave sent us the MobileMark LTMWG942 that includes sub-6 GHz 5G support. This antenna was tested by our team member Andy Hull. Previously MobileMustHave had sent us the LMTG944 9-in-1 for review and to compare to the Poynting 7-in-1. These units were primarily tested for pairing with the Pepwave MAX Transit Duo, in a dual 2x2 MIMO configuration.
You can find full field testing results in these member-exclusive field lab reports. A summary and analysis of testing data is in the member section below.

Cellular antennas can be a vital part of your signal enhancing strategy to get a better signal, and thus better cellular data performance. They come in many shapes, sizes and varieties.
They can be used directly connected to your mobile hotspots or cellular embedded routers, or they might connect to your cellular booster. They come in omni-directional vs directional, single vs MIMO, and might support different frequency bands. They come in combination antennas with Wi-Fi and GPS.
But most importantly, is your installation options on your RV or boat.
So before choosing an antenna, be sure to understand all of these variables - and keep in mind that there likely isn't a single 'one size fits all' solution here. You may need to make compromises, or even have speciality antennas for challenging signal areas.
We recommend starting with our Guide to Selecting Antennas, and then moving on to our other guides addressing related topics:
