Dual-cellular IP67 enclosed antenna for dual-modem 5G mobile routers
Two MAX antennas in one housing for BR2 Pro 5G class deployments
The Peplink Antenna MAX Duo is a single enclosure housing two complete 4x4 cellular MIMO antenna sets, plus Wi-Fi and GPS. Designed specifically to pair with dual-modem routers like the BR2 Pro 5G and MAX Transit Duo Pro, where two complete cellular antenna paths must be active simultaneously for SpeedFusion bonding across both modems. SKU ANT-MAX-DUO.
Why this exists
Dual-modem routers like the BR2 Pro 5G need 8 cellular antenna paths total (4 per modem). With separate paddle antennas that's eight individual antennas; with two Mobility 42G domes that's two visible domes plus a tangle of cabling. The Antenna MAX Duo consolidates both 4x4 MIMO sets into a single dome with a single PoE cable run, which is the only practical option for marine, broadcast contribution, and fixed-site enterprise where dual-cellular is mandatory.

Where it fits
Broadcast contribution. OB vehicles running BR2 Pro 5G need dual-cellular for SpeedFusion bonding to the FusionHub. Antenna MAX Duo on the mast keeps the deployment clean: one dome, one PoE cable.
Marine. Commercial vessels and superyachts running BR2 Pro 5G or MAX Transit Duo Pro for redundant cellular WAN. Single dome aesthetic, IP67 marine rating.
Public safety vehicles. Police, fire, ambulance running dual-modem mobile routers where two carrier paths are non-negotiable.
Mission-critical fleet. Heavy lorries, coaches, rail rolling stock with dual-modem routers needing single-dome installation.
Compatible router configurations
The MAX Duo is a dual-bay enclosure: one or two supported Peplink routers mount inside and feed the built-in 8x8 cellular MIMO plus Wi-Fi and GPS elements through short internal leads. Peplink confirms these configurations:
- 1x BR2 Pro: single dual-modem flagship
- 2x BR1 Pro 5G: dual single-modem 5G
- 2x BR1 Pro (CAT-20): dual LTE-A
- 1x BR1 Pro 5G + 1x BR1 Mini 5G: mixed 5G pair
PoE splitters are required for any router without PoE input.
Mounting
Surface mount kit ACW-677 (separate purchase) available for fixed-site installs. Marine mast adapters via ACW-651 (1" 14TPI) or ACW-653A (1 1/4" 11TPI).
