The fact that the outdoor version is directional kind of limits its adoption in mobile usage, doesn't it? Most similar products have omnidirectional antenna. Can't imagine you would rotate it by hand on a boat towards the land while on passage

This product targets businesses where they will mount it in a fixed position and target a specific tower so they get the best throughput.

Did you read through the press release?

Not GP but I’m trying to figure out what you’re insinuating.

> For tougher environments or deployments with poor indoor cellular coverage, the outdoor model maintains the same high performance cellular connectivity with improved antenna performance in a durable IP67 rated enclosure. It is built for rooftop installs, off site locations, and mobile deployments where reliability is critical. Just like its indoor counterpart, you can also connect it via any PoE port, anywhere on your network, greatly simplifying cabling requirements.

And the first image they show of the outdoor model is it installed in a fixed location on a rooftop.

I think it’s going to be targeting mostly stationary HA redundant uplinks. Backup for primary uplink or low usage primary link. In those scenarios pointing at your nearest antenna fixed is much better than an omnidirectional antenna.

They clearly mention mobile use and show it on the animation as well. Which is why I am surprised.
