Because UBNT believes (I didn't say "executes", I said "believes") in
strong multi-product integration... aka their monitoring system(s).

It drives me nuts as well.

Re: [AFMUG] uW over ocean

2017-05-23 Thread Eric Kuhnke
Get as much height as you can on at least one end. As chuck has pointed
out, an angle is better than something flat/parallel to the ocean. As much
angle in elevation aim on the radios as possible.

Of course sometimes this is not possible because the OSI layer 1 cost to
achieve additional height at one end could be a new $300,000 tower

Isn't there something where if you install conduit on someone's private

your conduit and use it, outside of the public ROW? Thought I read something 
about that on this list.

  Typically no you shouldn't have to share, but it could be a requirement in 
some instances to provide available space if it exists due to permit. Usually 
only in large cities one way they get access for city and utility fiber. 
Another instance would be if you are a CLEC and you have a shared access 
agreement with ATT, VZ, Centrurlink, etc. there is would be a mutual rate

I have some questions on those that are doing buried fiber.  We have not 
filed a CLEC status yet as I have contract review going with my uniquely 
grandfathered access to a local fiber ring, and want to make sure I don't mess 
that up.  So, that aside.

If my company puts in conduit in a right away to push fiber into and then 
someone else comes along, do we have to share that conduit with anyone (if 
there is room)?  My perception going the other way, is that if the LEC has 
conduit in place, the LEC may or may not have to share conduit space, and can't 
make reasons or excused or very long delays etc., to ultimately deter you from 
being able to do that.

I a considering doing conduit to 3 1000+ communities and then FTTH in those 
communities and don't feel great if I am in anyway also setting it up for a 
competitor to have access to my hard fought efforts (and $) to get in installed.

Is there ANY I could be forced to give them access to my conduit?

  The AC PoE bricks that comes with both the

  Tycon says it works on the AF24 because they

Well, only a little bit to keep the end from flapping or adjusting to any other 
irregularities. It otherwise forms a waterproof bond to itself.

Re: [AFMUG] Cold shrink sealing

No. It is a whole different animal. If you haven't tried it you probably
should. It sticks to itself, but not much else. Cuts off clean, very
stretchy so you can get a tight seal. Very easy to work with. The 3M rubber
tape is a lot like mastic in that it evens out a surface. I haven't found
it necessary to use anything but the silicon tape.

[AFMUG] AF11 PoE Question

2017-05-23 Thread Jesse DuPont

  
  
Good morning. I'm hoping someone already has experience with this.
I'm putting up some AF11X links and I want to power them off our
24VDC plant via PoE. I've used the Tycon TP-DCDC-2456G-VHP units
before on AF24: they're 24V input, 56V out on all 4 pairs of PoE.
Specifically, they're:

+(3,6)(4,5) and -(1,2)(7,8)

The AC PoE bricks that comes with both the AF24 and the AF11X are
the same:

+(1,2),(4,5) and -(3,6)(7,8)

Tycon says it works on the AF24 because they use a bridge rectifier
on the PoE power inputs so they're polarity insensitive. They're
saying ask UBNT.

Does anyone know if the AF11X is the same way? I posted this in UBNT
forum, too.

Re: [AFMUG] Ethernet over coax

2017-05-23 Thread Colin Stanners
When I started in wireless ~14 years ago, I bought a pair of Aeronet ARLAN
860kbit, 900mhz APs on eBay (630 model), desolded the flash chips, put on
firmware for the 640 model to turn them into bridge units, and re-installed
the chips in sockets.

Those things were so basic and slow - couldn't even show signal level - but
it was very interesting learning what they could do.

We're talking point to point links here though... B5 lites would be what
you would want to look at in the Mimosa line.

All things considered, I think I would probably use something in the UBNT
AC line... probably the ISO stations, or whatever I happen to have sitting
on the shelf. A pair of Force 180's would certainly do the job too, but an
AC radio is going to be able to do more throughput and you get some nice
toys like a spectrum analyzer that works without breaking the connection.

Yeah, I ran ArcNet between my BBS computer and the NetwareLite file server

Typically no you shouldn't have to share, but it could be a requirement in some 
instances to provide available space if it exists due to permit. Usually only 
in large cities one way they get access for city and utility fiber. Another 
instance would be if you are a CLEC and you have a shared access agreement with 
ATT, VZ, Centrurlink, etc. there is would be a mutual rate described in this 
agreement.

  I have some questions on those that are doing buried fiber.  We have not 
filed a CLEC status yet as I have contract review going with my uniquely 
grandfathered access to a local fiber ring, and want to make sure I don't mess 
that up.  So, that aside.

  If my company puts in conduit in a right away to push fiber into and then 
someone else comes along, do we have to share that conduit with anyone (if 
there is room)?  My perception going the other way, is that if the LEC has 
conduit in place, the LEC may or may not have to share conduit space, and can't 
make reasons or excused or very long delays etc., to ultimately deter you from 
being able to do that.

  I a considering doing conduit to 3 1000+ communities and then FTTH in those 
communities and don't feel great if I am in anyway also setting it up for a 
competitor to have access to my hard fought efforts (and $) to get in installed.

  Is there ANY I could be forced to give them access to my conduit?
