Has anybody found differences in the Ethernet equipment used and errors? We have a site with a 4kw FM about 50' away from our gear. An FSK Cluster will not run at 100mb, only 10mb. A powerbridge at the same level sometimes negotiates down to 10mb, but mostly stays at 100mb. An EPMP radio happily sits at 1G with no issues. They are all at the same height/cable length/cable type. The FSK Radios plug into a RB2011, and the powerbridge and EPMP plug into a RB1100. So there is a difference between the Ethernet chipset in the radio equipment and routers. I can only guess that some combination there of is more sensitive to the FM than the others.

Subject: [AFMUG] FM radio colocation interference?

Theres a potentially new FM radio tenant wanting to colocate on a tower we are 
already on. We're predicting there is absolutely no way this will work with our 
100BT and 1000BT Ethernet links.

He anyone collocated with FM radio and 'it worked '?
