External Antenna Mount for Nokia Trashcan Router

cults3d

UPDATE I revamped the design a little bit. I cut out the center part of the circle - this gives access to the SIM card and cuts down on print time. I also added slots within the base so you can mount the router using zip ties - footers added for stability. This is a base and antenna mount for the Nokia 5G router from T-Mobile. The router does not have built-in ports for external antennas. You will need to purchase U.fl leads, open up the router, disconnect the right 2 internal antennas, and route wire through the bottom of the heat vents. Full write-up found here: https://www.waveform.com/a/b/guides/hotspots/t-mobile-5g-gateway Here are the external antenna leads that I used: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07P84VLTR/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I found that the external leads were susceptible to damage by just hanging out of the router and there wasn't a good spot to secure them (almost ripped them out of the router while setting up the MIMO antenna). This base allows the router to sit in it with the leads securely fastened. You'll have to get creative in mounting the router to the base. I just used double-sided tape, but you could possibly hot glue it for a more secure finishing touch. Just FYI, this is only the 2nd 3D model that I've done from scratch, so please feel free to take the design and remix it to your liking. Thing Files: Pretty self-explanatory, but use the 2x2 STL file if you will be using a 2x2 MIMO antenna - use the 4x4 if using a 4x4 MIMO antenna
