Guide to PDA Mounts

view recommended products

Kinds of PDA Mounts include the following:

Ram Arm mounts

• These PDA mounts have short, thick holders connecting the PDA cradle to the mounting rack.
• They are usually set on a swiveling base that allows the cradle to face different directions.
• They can be tightened or locked at specific angles using a turn knob at the side of the arm.

Gooseneck mounts

• Gooseneck mounts have long, flexible arms attached to a fixed mounting rack or suction cup.
• They are commonly used in cars and tight spaces, and may be installed on floor mounts and rail bolts.
• The neck is often made of segmented stainless steel and covered with a rubber or ABS casing.

Yoke mounts

• Yoke mounts have claw-like mounts locked into place by a large metal or plastic screw.
• They are very stable and reliable, but require complex installation and are meant for semi-permanent use.
• They usually include a steady or swiveling connector for both ram and Gooseneck mounts.

Fit: Choose a PDA mount that securely holds your PDA. Make sure the PDA slides snugly along the side rails. Universal mounts may not fit perfectly, so look for those with front straps or curved side rails to keep the PDA from falling forward.

Installation: Choose a PDA mount that you can install without hardware or mounting kits. If you use your PDA in cars, look for one with a suction cup mount that you can attach to the windshield and remove when necessary.
