The Peplink Slim series of antennas is are portable, omnidirectional panel antennas that support sub-6GHz 5G cellular frequencies and GPS antenna. One model supports Wi-Fi.
They are designed for wall or window mounting or can be mounted in hidden or smaller areas than other antennas. It's a similar design to more consumer-oriented panel antennas like the popular Netgear MIMO, but with a more enterprise-level design and build.
Currently, there are two models:
- Slim 22G: 2x2 MIMO Cellular, 2x2 Wi-Fi, GPS
- Slim 40G: 4x4 MIMO Cellular, GPS

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:
