I strongly recommend the Yagi type
antennas for ant point-to-point to minimize the “spray” of signal.
Flat panel semi-directionals are basically splashing the signal in a 180 arc.
Yagis are much more directional and also have nice range with no to minimal
amplification. Do everything you can to minimize signal
spray along with using a modern encryption and authentication system such as
WPA (minimum). WEP is bad. Avoid it. What little signal you have fanning out
needs to be protected as well as is possible. I can imagine airports much have
regs involving signal levels of wireless equipment so make sure you check into
that. Thank you, Computer Associates, Inc. From:

Wouldn’t want somebody to go a sniffing. John T eServices For You "Seek, and ye shall
find!" -----Original Message----- Using directional antennas on well mounted
masts you shouldn’t have any problem shooting ½ mile. If anything you
might need very minimal amplification. Just make sure you’re using
quality gear such as Cisco with something like a yagi antenna on it. I suppose
it also depends on what data rates you need to achieve but really ½ mile
isn’t that far at all. Thank you, Computer Associates, Inc. From:

On Behalf Of Troy D. Hilton Hello
All, Wonder
if someone might have some insight here. I’m researching setting up a
wireless connection between two hangers at our local municipal airport. I
don’t know the approximate distance yet but I wanted to know if anyone
here has ever done any wireless networking with a range
of about ½ mile or so, and would care to share their experiences. Please
feel free to contact me offline. Thanks! Serveon, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED] 302-529-8640 |
