I had a customer contact me this morning, very frustrated that he could not find a way to mount the Motorola / Zebra AN480 antennas he had purchased for his RFID project.  I told him that the AN480 antennas from Zebra have a customized mounting bolt pattern, specifically so you can’t buy mounts anywhere else – BUT they never came out with any decent mounts. Until recently there hasn't been a mounting bracket that could be used with this particular antenna.  So, here is what I had originally recommended to him, and now to you...    Purchase RFMAX part # S9028PCR96RTN (same...

I am posting today, because I had a client contact us this week saying that he was experiencing trouble with network connectivity, even after installing the below VC70 external antenna kit for their ruggedized Motorola/Zebra mobile computer. Here are the possible causes of connectivity problems with the Motorola/Zebra VC70…   1. They may not have properly set up the VC70 to activate the external (vs the internal) Wi-Fi antenna.  If you are experiencing network connectivity problems with your VC70, please give our external antenna kit a try, and be sure to configure it properly (see below.)     2. Or,...
