Enhance Your Campervan Connectivity with POYNTING Antennas

The European recreational vehicle (RV) market is experiencing significant growth. In 2022, new RV registrations in Europe reached approximately 183,509 units. The market is predominantly led by Germany, France, and the UK, which together hold 68% of the market share. This surge in new registrations highlights a robust interest in RVs across Europe.

Why outdoor antennas?

For those who love the open road and remote locations, staying connected can be a challenge. Whether you’re sharing your adventures on social media, checking in with family, or navigating unfamiliar terrain, a reliable internet connection is essential. As campervans and caravans are typically made from metal or have a metal frame, they can obstruct internet signals, making it difficult to stay connected. Outdoor antennas are designed to overcome this issue by enhancing signal reception. Mounted on the outside of the vehicle, these antennas capture and amplify the available signals and bring them inside through a cable, ensuring a stronger and more stable connection. This is particularly important in remote and rural areas where traditional mobile signal strength can be unreliable.

Why POYNTING antennas?

Additionally, outdoor antennas are built to withstand various weather conditions, ensuring consistent performance in rain, wind, or snow. This durability ensures that you have a reliable internet connection regardless of the environment. Outdoor antennas like the PUCK-2 and MIMO-3-V2-12 from POYNTING are specifically designed to address these needs, making them an essential accessory for any campervan or traveller in Europe.

Comparing PUCK-2 and MIMO-3-V2-12

  • Compact Size: Ideal for limited space.
  • Good Performance: Suitable for urban areas and locations with decent coverage.
  • Aesthetic Appeal: Sleek design that blends well with your campervan.

When to Choose PUCK-2

  • Space Constraints: Limited roof space or aesthetic considerations.
  • Urban Use: Mainly used in city areas with good coverage.
  • Small Applications: Ideal for IoT devices and other small-scale implementations.
  • Larger Size: Requires more space but offers better performance.
  • Superior Connectivity: Best for rural areas and places with weak signals.
  • Enhanced Features: Supports multiple frequency bands, including 450-470MHz for specialized networks.

When to Choose MIMO-3-V2-12

  • Rural Adventures: Perfect for remote areas with poor coverage.
  • Better Performance: Worth the investment for superior connectivity.
  • Larger Space: Suitable for campervans with sufficient roof space.

Conclusion

For those who travel to remote locations and need reliable connectivity, the MIMO-3-V2-12 is the best choice despite its higher cost. If space and aesthetics are a concern, the PUCK-2 is an excellent alternative. Both antennas offer robust solutions to ensure you stay connected, no matter where your adventures take you.
