Re: [AFMUG] Customer w/ Power of Ethernet - Speed problems?

2016-06-16 Thread Brandon Yuchasz
I had a customers router recently that was set to 3/1 it was somewhere in the 
firmware of the router. I bounced around in the router for a few minutes but 
could not find the settings. I took a screen cap of a speed test through the 
router 3/1 and a screen cap of the laptop plugged directly into the Ethernet 
12/3 and sent them both to him. I believe he finally just replaced the router.

If he gets the same speed regardless of what you set him to might be similar.

 

Best regards,

The Ethernet gear was installed already when we arrived.  He had configured the

Did the issue come in to play with this Netgear thing (are you sure it isn't 
Ethernet over Power)?  Or when you went from 20meg to 30meg.

 We're looking at our first fiber neighborhood project, about

 The neighborhood will be fed via wireless and fiber used for
 distribution.  It's 100% aerial in remote private neighborhood.
 Currently in the research/feasibility stage, but I hope this
will be
 our first build and a good project to cut our teeth on.

 A few questions, answer off-list if you prefer:

 - What OLT/ONT have people been using and liked for a small GPON
 network?

 - Reading about "Distributed Tap Architecture" vs Splitting
method.
 Anyone have experience with Tap?

 - Armored or Dielectric?  100% aerial at the bottom of a
canyon under
 dense tree canopy.

 I'm sure there will be more questions, thanks in advance for any

Ahh yes the BPL stuff :)
they only work well if they share the same breaker in the panel and even 
then can be questionable.
I would have installer/tech or customer take a cable and run it straight 
over to the other end and plug in and see what ya get.

I think you mean Powerline networking, using the home power wiring to 
carry data, aka Homeplug.  Speed, latency, packet loss can be all over 
the map on these depending on interference on the power wiring, and 
whether they are on the same breaker, phase, meter, etc.
If there is being used to extend the LAN side of the router to other 
parts of the house, I would absolutely refuse to deal with any speed 
complaints except directly on a LAN port of the main router.
If the homeplug stuff is being used between your POE and the WAN port 
of the router, I would still not respond to speed complaints over the 
homeplug link.  I would insist they temporarily move the router to 
connect directly to the POE and if speeds are OK, it’s their problem.
I have seen various generations of homeplug gear work just terrible in 
situations where I tried to use it (like going from a house to a 
garage), but I assume some places it works OK.  (Sounds like Trump

lol last automatic we had was in october, october was a good month, only 
changed most of the network since then.

we just run two bmus mirrored on different parts of the network with ospf, that 
way if one croaks (assuming we lose ospf routing) the other picks up the slack

Re: [AFMUG] Customer w/ Power of Ethernet - Speed problems?

2016-06-16 Thread Ken Hohhof
I think you mean Powerline networking, using the home power wiring to carry 
data, aka Homeplug.  Speed, latency, packet loss can be all over the map on 
these depending on interference on the power wiring, and whether they are on 
the same breaker, phase, meter, etc.

If there is being used to extend the LAN side of the router to other parts of 
the house, I would absolutely refuse to deal with any speed complaints except 
directly on a LAN port of the main router.

If the homeplug stuff is being used between your POE and the WAN port of the 
router, I would still not respond to speed complaints over the homeplug link.  
I would insist they temporarily move the router to connect directly to the POE 
and if speeds are OK, it’s their problem.

I have seen various generations of homeplug gear work just terrible in 
situations where I tried to use it (like going from a house to a garage), but I 
assume some places it works OK.  (Sounds like Trump talking about Mexicans ... 
and some I assume are good people.)

Toss your thoughts out…

 

First customer that installer has come across with new Netgear Power of 
Ethernet gear.  Customers main router is just a N300 which does PPPoE to our 
network.  

Account was set to 20Mbps and now 30Mbps.  Speed tests are good from radio out. 
 Customer says from inside his network he only gets 9-12Mbps, with no traffic 
or users.  

 

Curious if anyone has come across this power of Ethernet in an install.  Does 
it work ok or cause issues? How do routers handle the traffic?

 We're looking at our first fiber neighborhood project, about 90 homes.
 The neighborhood will be fed via wireless and fiber used for
 distribution.  It's 100% aerial in remote private neighborhood.
 Currently in the research/feasibility stage, but I hope this will be
 our first build and a good project to cut our teeth on.

 A few questions, answer off-list if you prefer:

 - What OLT/ONT have people been using and liked for a small GPON
 network?

 - Reading about "Distributed Tap Architecture" vs Splitting method.
 Anyone have experience with Tap?

 - Armored or Dielectric?  100% aerial at the bottom of a canyon under
 dense tree canopy.

 I'm sure there will be more questions, thanks in advance for any

 We're looking at our first fiber neighborhood project, about 90 
homes.
 The neighborhood will be fed via wireless and fiber used for
 distribution.  It's 100% aerial in remote private neighborhood.
 Currently in the research/feasibility stage, but I hope this will 
be
 our first build and a good project to cut our teeth on.

 A few questions, answer off-list if you prefer:

 - What OLT/ONT have people been using and liked for a small GPON
 network?

 - Reading about "Distributed Tap Architecture" vs Splitting method.
 Anyone have experience with Tap?

 - Armored or Dielectric?  100% aerial at the bottom of a canyon 
under
 dense tree canopy.

 I'm sure there will be more questions, thanks in advance for any
 sharing.

I am not saying that clearfield was the cheapest or best. For a fiber
virgin they seemed to offer a good end to end solution that solved the
issues i knew nothing about and did so without a large capital investment
in equipment.

Re: [AFMUG] Building small GPON network

2016-06-16 Thread Sterling Jacobson
I don't have experience with pole attached stuff or GPON so I'm just 
speculating.

But it's probably close to the same labor cost to string a small count main 
line for GPON as it would to string a 96 or 144 count mainline for active.

The actual drop splice might be less time and maybe a bit less complicated for 
GPON?

You didn't ask about active, but that's all I know for sure.

The electronics for active are a transceiver for each house and a regular SFP 
switch(s) at the other end.

You could cover this project with a couple of planet 48 port SFP switches at 
about $1600 each.
Transceivers and boxes for the customer end maybe around $100-$200 each.

Pretty cheap, but can connect to several 10Gbps ports on the back of those 
switches and give up to 80 people a full 1Gbps simultaneously.
GPON/PON can't do that yet, but really no one uses it like that today anyway.

A couple of years from now? Maybe.

Every so often, you do what is called a "ring cut" or "mid entry" with a splice 
case.  Run drops forwards and back from the splice case.  8 drops would not be 
a bad number to feed from each entry point.  You have a snow shoe on one or 
both sides of the splice case to store you main cable slack.

It is easier than dealing with splitters out in the field and it also allows 
you to do full active if you want to.  And you do want that option as it will 
give you more capacity on each drop to sell and is really cheaper to do if you 
do it via the Sterling Jacobson method.

I had been thinking in terms of a entry every 2-4 homes (drop cables from entry 
directly to house on each side).  Seems excessive.


It does seem more managable if it's ~ 8 drops per entry.  The drop cable may 
run alongside the feeder cable for X feet until it splits off to go to the home?

Most of the fiber vendors will do a pre-connectorized design for this stuff 
if you have a really accurate design with pole spacings measured down to the

You put enough slack on the snowshoes that you can get the splice case down
and into the splicing rig.  Many of them have a hatch in the ceiling.  An
old RV works great for this if you are starting out.  It will need a good
workbench with good lights and some power for the fusion machine.  AC and a
sound system is always appreciated.  Functional bathroom.

Somehow you will have to get the splice back up, normally you would use a
bucket truck, hopefully one with a splice body so the same rig can do both.
But you can work this stuff off of ladders if you have to.

Every so often, you do what is called a "ring cut" or "mid entry" with a
splice case.  Run drops forwards and back from the splice case.  8 drops
would not be a bad number to feed from each entry point.  You have a snow
shoe on one or both sides of the splice case to store you main cable slack.

It is easier than dealing with splitters out in the field and it also allows
you to do full active if you want to.  And you do want that option as it
will give you more capacity on each drop to sell and is really cheaper to do
if you do it via the Sterling Jacobson method.

Every so often, you do what is called a "ring cut" or "mid entry" with a
splice case.  Run drops forwards and back from the splice case.  8 drops
would not be a bad number to feed from each entry point.  You have a snow
shoe on one or both sides of the splice case to store you main cable slack.

It is easier than dealing with splitters out in the field and it also allows
you to do full active if you want to.  And you do want that option as it
will give you more capacity on each drop to sell and is really cheaper to do
if you do it via the Sterling Jacobson method.

We're looking at our first fiber neighborhood project, about 90 homes.
The neighborhood will be fed via wireless and fiber used for
distribution.  It's 100% aerial in remote private neighborhood.
Currently in the research/feasibility stage, but I hope this will be
our first build and a good project to cut our teeth on.

A few questions, answer off-list if you prefer:

- What OLT/ONT have people been using and liked for a small GPON network?

- Reading about "Distributed Tap Architecture" vs Splitting method.
Anyone have experience with Tap?

- Armored or Dielectric?  100% aerial at the bottom of a canyon under
dense tree canopy.

I'm sure there will be more questions, thanks in advance for any sharing.

I want Amy good at it but it was a passion in the ass. Bunches of midspan
splits seems to be a pita. I'd the place is small enough and small you are
just learning maybe do smaller fiber count so you have less cuts and just
run more.
But, chunk is the expert.  We opted to spend more on equipment/fiber and go
all tap so the maintenance wouldn't require splicing. But, to each his own.
It seems fiber isn't that much different than anything else. You can spend
as much as you want and to some extent you replace labor dollars with
equipment dollars and vice versa.  Then it becomes what route if equipment
and people you have and the incremental cost to do this job when you
already have all that.  e Didn't so we went tap.

[AFMUG] Building small GPON network

2016-06-16 Thread Rob Genovesi
We're looking at our first fiber neighborhood project, about 90 homes.
The neighborhood will be fed via wireless and fiber used for
distribution.  It's 100% aerial in remote private neighborhood.
Currently in the research/feasibility stage, but I hope this will be
our first build and a good project to cut our teeth on.

A few questions, answer off-list if you prefer:

- What OLT/ONT have people been using and liked for a small GPON network?

- Reading about "Distributed Tap Architecture" vs Splitting method.
Anyone have experience with Tap?

- Armored or Dielectric?  100% aerial at the bottom of a canyon under

Yes, except you are counting the 3 dB twice.

If you look at it from the total power perspective, signal stays the 
same, noise is cut in half.  If you look at it from the power spectral 
density perspective, signal is double, noise stays the same.


In some bands the regulatory limit is on psd not total power, so you 
don’t gain any system margin with a narrower channel, you just lose 
throughput.

Subject: [AFMUG] Power limits per hertz.

I've had a couple of conversations over the past little bit which has 
gotten me thinking about power limits in relation to channel width.


This is my thinking.  Assume 5.8ghz, ap side.  Power limit 36dbm.

My question/thought/potential misunderstanding has to do with how that 
36dbm is measured.  Assuming you're comparing a 20 mhz channel with a 
10 mhz channel, both at EIRP limits, does the 10 mhz channel 
effectively have more Power density?


Assuming this is the case,  it seems you would gain 3db of link margin 
for the increased power density and 3db more for reduced noise floor.  
6db is double the distance which is big, even with the reduced 
throughput.


Is this the way this works?

I was recently using the AirMagic feature on a backhaul link and it was
nice enough to tell me the bits per Hz and calculate total potential
bandwidth at different channel widths.  It claimed that I would actually
get more bandwidth on a 20MHz channel as opposed to a 40MHz channel down
that same path.  I tried it and sure enough!  AirMagic is amazing.  Now if
they would just get 8.0 firmware solid enough that I could be confident
running it everywhere.

Re: [AFMUG] Power limits per hertz.

2016-06-16 Thread Chuck McCown
Historically these rules were based on power measuring technologies like 
bolometers which are light bulbs in a wheatstone bridge.

The bolometer would measure DC-8 GHz for example.  Oblivious to frequencies of 
any carriers present.
They all contributed to the heating of the filament.  
Total power.  If all that power was put into a CW carrier, that is quite a bit 
of power density.  

So a rule like:
(A) The average equivalent isotropically radiated power (EIRP) must not exceed 
2,000 watts within any 5 megahertz of authorized bandwidth and must not exceed 
400 watts within any 1 megahertz of authorized bandwidth.

You can see that if there were 5 channels, each 1 MHz wide, each producing 400 
watts, and each terminating in a dummy load in a bucket of water, that water 
would get just as hot as if there was one transmitter with a 5 MHz channel 
pumping out 2000 watts.

Re: [AFMUG] Power limits per hertz.

Yes.  Another 3db of power in 10 MHz versus 20 MHz.  Yet another 3db if you
use 5 MHz, but that's severely trashing your bandwidth capacity.

[AFMUG] Power limits per hertz.

2016-06-16 Thread Forrest Christian (List Account)
I've had a couple of conversations over the past little bit which has
gotten me thinking about power limits in relation to channel width.

This is my thinking.  Assume 5.8ghz, ap side.  Power limit 36dbm.

My question/thought/potential misunderstanding has to do with how that
36dbm is measured.  Assuming you're comparing a 20 mhz channel with a 10
mhz channel, both at EIRP limits, does the 10 mhz channel effectively have
more Power density?

Assuming this is the case,  it seems you would gain 3db of link margin for
the increased power density and 3db more for reduced noise floor.  6db is
double the distance which is big, even with the reduced throughput.

Is this the way this works?

Re: [AFMUG] Powercode GX426

2016-06-16 Thread CBB - Jay Fuller

We had the lovely feeling of a BMU resetting to factory defaults last night 
during a storm.  No power outage at the NOC that I'm aware of - maybe  a blip.

I was able to restore from a backup configuration in powercode - only to 
discover the last four months of changes weren't in it.

Yay.
