Okie doke. Its what i figured then
Other then the middle one.. And i found out my own question as to what type of antenna it is /who makes them. Its a AntennaPro Millennium

OPP has the 2 pucks (antennas) on the roof for the MWS. One transmits, on receives. The modem is in the trunk connected to the pucks with cord. A cord from the modem then goes up and plugs into the MWS. It runs at 100mbs. The MWS encrypts the signal outgoing and receives the incoming encrypted signal.

Um.. What bearer and network are they using that gives them 100mbs mobile?

I am not aware of one available, outside a lab environment, that offers 100mbs and hand-off of session.

I believe polkaroo pretty much nailed it, but I would add that there is a new hardware called Qualcomm Gobi for WWAN (Wireless Wide Area Networks) that will work with EVDO and HSPA on one card, and is available from most notebook manufacturers.

There are also some HSPA/Wi-Fi cards, that might offer some advantage when the car is in a location served by a WLAN.

I would guess that the answer to the OP's question would be Fleetnet, mobile repeater and 850/1900/GPS for the MWS.

Probably quoting the speed between the trunk unit and the laptop.

Like the old CB ads that stated they had 6w of output. They just mentioned the fact it was audio output in the small print and their rf output was 4w like everybody elses.

I remember those ads... All those truckers thinking they were special at 6 watts..
