LTE external antenna

are there any recommendations for adding an external antenna to the Cato socket? What brand/type has worked for folks vs other brands?

    Hello there.  Sorry for the delayed response.  

    Cato will recommend customers to go with the external antennas that we sell and provide, if possible, as those have been validated to our standards and requirements.  Therefore we cannot recommend any 3rd party antennas.  A customer is welcome to go with a 3rd party, but please note that we cannot support something procured outside of Cato if it doesn't work or causes any issues with our sockets.  Hope this helps.  Thank you.
