I had to mechanically secure all the connections etc for one bank. They were worried about someone using wireshark. Things had to be in conduit or locked boxes.

I am sure some banking regulator could insist that something be done to prevent connection and packet sniffing. From: CBB - Jay Fuller Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2017 10:14 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [AFMUG] project guidelines We are located on the parking deck of a local bank for line of sight shots to our downtown area. The bank has recently decided to go with us as a backup connection due to the extreme unreliability of the cable company in the area (and that is who they have purchased fiber through). The bank parking structure and the bank itself is basically one city block wide. We need to go from the top floor of the parking structure across the parking structure to enter the building, then go down four stories and across the building into the network room. They want 150 meg during backup times. The location is actually fed by a 3.65 airfiber from our office/NOC located a few miles away but there are trees between them and us. There is enough bandwidth on the link to provide that. I think thinking an rb2011 and fiber. Any input on how you'd build this out if it were your project? Would use a simple media converter on the bank end. The site currently moves very staggered amounts of data - the businesses on the system are very bursty.
