How to connect external antenna to AirCard 800s
Im using an AirCard 800S on a boat with an Omni directional marine antenna and was wondering which TS9 port I should be connecting to?
The AirCard has two ports for a MIMO antenna however the marine antenna I have is just a single connection. The port on the right is labeled "primary" according to the manual and the port on the left hand side of the device is labeled "secondary".

Hi Speedtriple
Welcome to NETGEAR Community!
To connect an external antenna to the NETGEAR AirCard USB modem/mobile hotspot, an antenna with a single or dual SMK TS-9 male connectors (or antenna with a single or dual SMK TS-9 male adapters) is required.

Community Team- Thanks Bianca, if I have an antenna with a single TS-9 connector what port do I plug into? The Aircard has two to choose from.
