Salt, moisture and dissimilar metals accelerate corrosion, so connectors, mounts, cable entries and enclosures must be selected and sealed for the marine environment. The vessel’s metal structure can shield or reflect signals; even fibreglass structures, equipment and tinted glass can affect antenna performance.
Mount cellular antennas with suitable separation and a clear view, while keeping coaxial runs short. Allow safe service access and protect equipment from condensation. Comset customer reports indicate successful vessel use, but every hull, route and carrier is different, so the installation should be tested in its real operating area.
