I have encountered such devices, but there isn't much interest in them so you've got to look further afield, and often there are significant legal barriers as the device is effectively licenced to the premises not to the purchaser.
These devices can cause significant interference, which aside from national security considerations are realistically far more likely to piss off all your neibors and allow people to re-sell internet services.
You find these primarily in marine settings, but also in large factories and transit areas like ports where fixed structures would be in the way.
For travel these days you usually just get a satellite internet service and a modular dish, and relay rather than boost over a local network like bluetooth
I could swear I saw versions of this for RV's when I was looking at getting one a few months back, maybe I'm mistaken though.
I stopped looking because I'm just out of line of sight to my nearest tower and the service wasn't supported by any carriers in my area.
Pretty sure this is just a cellular signal booster, right? My office/chop is a metal building, so the cellular signal inside was absolute garbage. Got one of these, large antenna goes up on top of the building, small antenna goes inside of building, and it carries the cellular signal in from outside. Just not sure what a "travel" version of one would entail. Maybe just the same components with some kind of temporary mounting hardware or something?
it would help if op explained what it was, his blurry photo of a mystery white box doesn't really help unless you just happen to recognise this specific model
there exist "portable hotspots" which take a cell data signal and spit out wifi, which could be used as a portable way to "move" a cell data antenna outside while a phone (or other) is inside
i don't know of any portable cell repeaters though i've never looked
You would just use the same thing except two non directional antennas instead of the yagi and one directional antenna.
You can also do a passive repeater by just linking two antennas that are tuned to the band you want with one piece of sufficiently shielded coax.
One antenna would go inside the car, one outside.
Probably a 1/4 wave antenna since those tend to be more narrow banded.

>why isnt there a travel version of this
and what is "this"?
Antenna's a yagi (a directional antenna); guessing the white box is some form of ptp wireless
Cradelpoint is what you want.
With antennas, size matters.
still it should be one unit not three things
The airwaves are none of your business goy
I need free wifi on the go

They absolutely exist.
Here's just one example.

Strap it on your back, homosexual. Time for a walk.
use one of these
People that use those are the same kind of gullible idiots that put these in their cars.
