For Rockets there are two different shields. One is the "Rock Shield"
which shields the original Rocket case. Second there is the shield that
bolts onto some of the parabolic dishes that provides slightly better
sidelobe performance on the dishes themselves.

RF armor shield you mean? Unless you've gotten a hold of those neat
RF elements Rocket case.

I don't see a lot of point in bothering with the Titanium
Rockets... the standard Rockets are XW hardware now, so you get
the faster processor. if you want the better shielding just get
those RF elements shields and it will still be cheaper than a Ti
or if you're using RF armor, it's irrelevant anyway. If you need
more than 100M ethernet, get a real backhaul.

What’s funny is that I’ve got the original Titaniums still up
over 2 years with no problems and no downtime. They were
still on 5.3 but I’ll be upgrading them tomorrow. However, I
don’t see any reason to pay the difference between the Rocket
5M and the Titanium with 20MHz channels, especially if you
have RF Armor shields.

We have two up. I can say they are better than the Rockets
they replaced but can’t speak to failure rates.

We see a very high failure rate on Titanium radios...even the
new XW version.

The new ones with XW hardware are working great? How long
have they been in service?

Working great. No GPS of course but immediately saw
throughput improvements.

Are the Tis actually working for you? They have a troubled
past and the outlook on the new ones is still uncertain.

We are replacing Rockets with Titanium AP and antennas. We
see instant performance improvements particularly with
links over 12 miles.

How many of you are using the RF armor shields or similar
on your Rocket radios? Do you have a before and after
scenario in real world applications?
Thanks
