Cardbus versus mini PCI wifi

For those with more experience in these matters than I, here is a question concerning the two primary (not including USB) types of wifi, specifically for the CF-28. How does the Engenius EMP-9701 A/B/G/N card compare to the Ubiquiti PCMCIA/Cardbus SR-71C A/B/G/N in performance and cost effectiveness? I am looking at another CF-28 project using a MKIII CF-28 with the hidden PCMCIA slot and the Ubiquiti card and two external antennas. I would use roof mounted antennas when docked and two rubber ducky antennas when portable. I am trying to get the max range possible from either of the cards. Okay guys, here's where you chime in and give it your best!

 

The PCMCIA Ubiquiti is going to cost you about four times what you would pay for the Engenious pci card. Also I think that you are limited to 100 or 200 mw on the PCMCIA card. I think that I paid $40.00 for my Engenious 8602 + S abg pci card. I looked into the Ubiquiti card for my CF-27 but it was just not cost effective, so that is why I got my CF-28.

 

I would go with the Engenius card above. Unless you MUST have the N band... Do you REALLY need it on a CF-28? I wouldn't think so.

I would run the ever-famous internal foil/paddle type antenna to the outside port cover and then a U.Fl to SMA bulkhead that would allow all sorts of possibilities.... 7dB rubber ducky on the side, 9dB mag-mount antenna... Or a long-range cantenna....
