Coming soon! The No-Modem SOCA Mounting System by Cellular Path is designed to make directional antenna setup faster, simpler, and more accurate for optimal cellular router performance. Built with a rotator, signal meter, and controller, it automatically scans and positions the mounted antenna towards the best 5G/4G LTE connection in 8-10 minutes – eliminating the guesswork of manual alignment.
Accommodating the two most common Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) deployment styles, the No-Modem SOCA can operate with:
- A cellular router installed inside the building,
- A cellular router housed directly inside the directional antenna and connected to an indoor access point.
The controller transmits collected signal data to the Cellular Path app or web interface via a WiFi connection for remote control. The SOCA portal provides signal metrics across all available carrier bands, recalibration options, visibility to multiple accounts, and more. Should signal conditions change, alerts enable quick action to maintain optimal connectivity while eliminating costly service visits for integrators.
Engineered with challenging outdoor conditions in mind, the No-Modem SOCA is IPx2 rated, operates in extreme temperatures from -20° F to 140° F, and endures wind gusts up to 90 mph. Not your standard cellular antenna mount, it's perfect for DIY business setups or professional integrators to achieve and maintain peak FWA.
The No-Modem SOCA can be used with any cellular router, with initial support for the Nextivity HPUE, Teltonika RUT241, Teltonika RUTM50, and more to come.

How Does the No-Modem SOCA Work?
The No-Modem SOCA uses innovative technology to perform a 360-degree sweep, stopping at 12 points to find the best signal for your carrier. Once the scan is complete, the No-Modem SOCA will automatically aim your directional antenna to the most optimal cell tower with precision, eliminating guesswork and optimizing the performance of FWA networks.
The controller requires an internet connection via WiFi to establish communication with the SOCA portal for remote control.
Why Does the No-Modem SOCA Need an Internet Connection?
The No-Modem SOCA requires a WiFi connection to transmit captured signal data to the monitoring portal and receive remote readjustment commands.
What Devices Does the No-Modem SOCA Support?
The No-Modem SOCA is meant to work with any cellular router. It launched with support for the Nextivity HPUE, Teltonika RUT241, and Teltonika RUTM50, with more models coming soon.
Is the No-Modem SOCA Only for Directional Antennas?
The Smart SOCA can be used with any cellular router or cellular signal booster.
Is the Smart SOCA Only for Directional Antennas?
Yes. The No-Modem SOCA is designed specifically for use with directional MIMO or SISO antennas that require precise alignment for optimal signal performance.
Can I Install Multiple Antennas on A Single No-Modem SOCA?
The No-Modem SOCA is intended to control a single antenna per unit.
