    Product Description

    This router has been discontinued. Please see the Peplink MAX BR1 Pro 5G with Poynting “Badger” 4×4 MIMO Antenna instead.

    Features of the RV Peplink MAX BR1 Mini with Poynting PUCK-5 antenna

    • Converts your 4G/LTE cellular data plan to a 2.4 GHz/5 GHz WiFi network that can be used by laptops, tablets, smart TVs, and other WiFi-enabled devices. (SIM card required.)
    • Dual SIM card slot supports one or two data plans. Onboard software lets you to prioritize which data plan the router will prefer.
    • The Poynting PUCK-5 2×2 MIMO antenna receives cellular signal from the cell tower and transmits WiFi signal from the Peplink router. One antenna on the roof of your RV, trailer, or van is all you need to convert cellular signal and create a large area of WiFi coverage. The PUCK-5 antenna includes five thin 6.6′ coax cables bundled in a braided nylon sleeve. (Learn more.)
    • Two Ethernet LAN ports and one Ethernet WAN port on the Peplink router support gigabit Ethernet (10/100/1000 Mbps). LAN port 1 has Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability.
    • Onboard software stores up to seven days of GPS location data.
    • GPIO power port with 120V AC/DC adapter.
    • The router’s compact metal enclosure (4.95″ × 4.2″ × 1.4″) is easy to install in tight spaces.
    • Operates on a wider range of cellular bands than consumer cell signal boosters. (See below.)
    • Peplink router certified by Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Works with all major U.S. cellular carriers and networks.
    • Includes Peplink’s one-year warranty plus a one-year subscription to Peplink PrimeCare service.
    • Extend your warranty, add features like WiFi WAN and InControl² cloud-based management, and get 24/7 support with a PrimeCare+ add-on package. (Learn more.)

    The Peplink MAX BR1 Mini receives wireless cellular signal and converts it to WiFi, creating a large WiFi “hotspot” in and around your RV, motorhome, motor coach, fifth wheel, trailer, van, or other vehicle. With the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini, computers, tablets, smart TVs, and other WiFi devices can use your cellular data plan to access the internet.

    The Poynting PUCK-5 MIMO (multiple-input, multiple-output) antenna sends and receives signal to the cell tower through two simultaneous data streams, providing improved signal strength and quality. The same antenna also broadcasts 2.4 and 5 GHz WiFi signal through twin MIMO connections.

    Peplink MAX BR1 Mini annotated features

    SIM card required (important—please read)

    To use the Peplink MAX BR1 Mini as a cellular–WiFi router, you must have an activated nano-SIM card with a data plan. You can obtain a SIM card from your cellular carrier (Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) and add it as an additional line on your existing plan. You can also purchase SIM cards from many retailers, including Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Best Buy; the data plan will either have a recurring monthly payment or will be a prepaid “pay-as-you-go” plan.

    Nano-SIM card with dimensions A nano-SIM cardexternal link icon is about the size of a fingernail.

    Who is the RV Peplink MAX BR1 Mini for?

    • Class A motorhomes (30–45 feet long).
    • Class C motorhomes (20–30 feet long).
    • Class B vans, including the Mercedes Sprinter, Ford Transit, Dodge Promaster, and others.
    • Fifth wheels, travel trailers, toy haulers, and other towables.
    • Government agencies with RVs that serve as mobile command posts (police, disaster recovery, etc.).
    • Anyone who needs the best, most reliable cell phone connectivity in their RV or towable.

    The Peplink MAX BR1 Mini router works best in areas where outside cellular signal is fair or moderate. For locations with weak cellular signal, a cell signal booster may be a better option in your RV, trailer, or van. If you have any questions about which option is right for you, please feel free to contact Powerful Signal—we’ll be happy to help you!
