Yeah, a bit of a stretch. We have improved them somewhat but still, that is
a stretch.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Baicells power and data connectivity
Two cat5's. One obviously to the data/WAN port. The other, two pairs
positive, two pairs negative. Nothing else. We did try a GigE-POE-SS
(top) and GigE-POE-APC (bottom). Power worked fine, but couldn't get the
etherlink link to come up. It was about 290 feet of cable. The eNBs have
built-in SS on the data port, so possibly too much loss or something
with the MTC suppressors added in.
The new eNB coming out will have a standard terminal block and two SFP
slots. I'm planning to use the Shireen DFP-1246 with that.

Those of you who have Baicells deployed, how are you powering the base
station?
Are you running something like 14/2 up the tower and providing -/+48VDC
directly?
Ugh - I thought the eNB had SFP's, but it looks like I need to provide
data over CAT5/6?
