SOCA-02 No Modem

No Second Modem. No Second SIM.

The controller joins the router's own 2.4 GHz network and reads that router's signal figures while the rotator scans. The modem on site stays the one you already chose.

UK Recommended Retail

GBP 339.00Ex VAT, and a recommendation. Nothing in our agreement with Cellular Path fixes or restricts the price at which a reseller resells, and we do not monitor resale prices.

How It Works

Mount
The rotator clamps to a pole of 25 to 57 mm diameter with two V-bolts, and the supplied antenna pole carries the directional antenna above it.
Pair
The controller couples to the router's 2.4 GHz network. The installer needs the router's wireless credentials and its administrator login, and Cellular Path's manual says to record both before going to site.
Scan
Twelve positions through 360 degrees. Cellular Path's comparison sheet gives alignment of this model in under ten minutes.
Re-Aim
From the app or the web portal, whenever the network moves. No second visit.

Cellular Path's two datasheets give the maximum antenna weight as 80 lb on one model and 100 lb on the other, for what is the same rotator. We publish the lower of the two until Cellular Path confirms one figure. The controller is an indoor unit and carries no ingress rating.

Not In The Box

The directional antenna, the coax, the router and the mounting pole. SOCA supplies the aim, not the link.

Routers

SOCA-02 No Modem reads the router's own signal figures while it scans, so the router has to be one Cellular Path has verified. It publishes that list and we hold the current version, with the United Kingdom variants identified. Ask and we will send it, with the conditions attached to it.
