The scoring of 5Gstore’s top products comes from a combination of their popularity as well as the number of customer reviews they received and the average rating customers gave the product. Many of this year’s winners, like the IP Switch (both the single outlet and dual outlet versions) and Pepwave Max BR1 Mini are perennial favorites and have appeared on our “best of” lists for years. Others, like the Pepwave Max Transit and Panorama WMMxG antennas are new to the list this year.

2 | Single Outlet Remote Power IP Switch Allows you to remotely monitor and reboot your equipment via smartphone app or the cloud | “The EZ-62b IP auto-switch is a great little piece of hardware.

7 | Panorama WMMG and WMM4G MiMo Antennas Powerful wall-mount antennas for 2×2 or 4×4 cellular/5G | “I am currently using this antenna in combination with a Pepwave MAX Transit Router With Cat 18 LTE Modem in my home office. I mounted the antenna to a pole outside, pointed it towards the correct cell tower and BAM!!! DL speed 90-96 Mbs, UL speed 45-50 Mbs. Very pleased!” “This antenna provided 12 dB of improvement for my application. Yeah the antenna is only good for 9 dB gain, the rest must have come from raising it higher on the building to shoot over some trees. I’m very happy with the results, downloads of 40Mbit now (compared to 20Mbit before).” read more reviews |
