Australia’s most powerful 4G and 5G caravan internet antenna
Australia is a beautiful and vast country, as well as the only country in the world that is also a continent. With approximately 25 million inhabitants spread over more than 7.5 million square kilometres, mobile phone coverage is unfortunately not always the best in the more remote regions of our country.
However, with our directional Outback Antenna you can get a fast, stable, and reliable 4G and 5G internet connection in more of Australia’s Outback than ever before.
The VanConnect 4G and 5G premium packages come standard with our high gain omni directional antenna. This is an excellent choice for most customers, as it offers a great range, allows the VanConnect to be used in motion, and requires no additional setup when you get to camp.
Omni directional antennas receive signal equally from all directions and this means that you do not have to rotate and aim the antenna in the direction of the broadcasting tower. Omni directional antennas can also receive signal from multiple broadcasting towers at the same time. Something that is not possible with a directional antenna. In short, an omni directional antenna is more versatile and a lot simpler to use.
Directional antennas point their power in a specific direction. In this direction, they can detect a weaker or more distant signal than most equivalent omni directional antennas, meaning a better overall reception.
