The Proxicast mag mount antenna kit comes with two omnidirectional paddle antennas that can be utilized as single antennas or together with devices that have two antenna ports. Using them concurrently with a device that supports external MIMO antennas results in what we refer to as a 'mock-MIMO' setup - instead of an integrated all-in-one MIMO setup.
The antennas themselves have SMA connectors that can be used directly with SMA devices. Alternatively, the kit comes with a magnetic base the antennas can attach to via the SMA connector. The base then has a 79" cable with a T-S9 connector for use with hotspots.

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.
