Subject: [WISPA] Farewell and good luck to you all!!!

It is with a heavy heart I send this email to you all to let you know I am 
moving on from my current employment and even this industry to the next step in 
my career. I've been a part of this group for 8.5 years and I've enjoyed being 
a part of the discussions (usually more passive) and observing and 
participating in growing the community we all love. A large majority of you 
I've probably never met, but we may have brushed shoulders at a WISPA shows, or 
others. I want to thank each and every one of you for your continued 
participation in this industry and I hope it continues to grow by leaps and 
bounds. You are all an inspiration and example of what a grass roots 
organization can do when determined and led by fantastic people.

The next step in my career is taking me to Raleigh (from Central Florida) into 
a pre-sales solutions engineer position for data center products. I'm excited 
for this next BIG step in life as it will be a BIG change for me, not only 
professionally but personally as well.

If any of you want to keep in touch, please email me directly before next 
Friday and I'll be happy share my personal email address with you.

Again, thank you to all of you and good luck in your future endeavors!

[WISPA] Ubiquiti airfiber on the same tower...

2013-02-04 Thread Paolo Di Francesco
Hi All

I was wondering what is your experience on Airfiber. In particular my 
question is if the following scenario could work or not work in your 
opinion/experience

On tower at LocationA there are two Airfiber pointing at the same 
direction LocationB and LocationC, more or less.
On the tower at LocationA, the two airfibers are mounted at let's say 
1-2 meters distance (horizontal and vertical) and 10 degrees of 
difference in the 2 directions LocationB and LocationC.
LocationB and LocationC are two other towers both pointing at LocationA.

I am wondering if at 24Ghz I could see some interference or not , in 
this situaitons

Thank you in advance

I would expect that her would be some side lobe interference.  If they were 
more like 40 Degrees then you would probably be fine.  But 11 is really close.  
What Kind of distances from A to B and A to C.  The closer the better, the 
further its going to get more tricky.

2013-02-04 Thread Faisal Imtiaz
Presently doing something like this may be a challenge.

Theoretically you my be able to get way with it ... if
You GPS Sync the radios.
Use the one channel on each of the radios (i.e./ run them half-duplex)
and depending on your distance, get more than 2 m of separation...

Doing something like this could be easier if and when UBNT comes out 
with firmware that can allow smaller channel size.

If you have to do something like this TODAY.. you might consider 
speaking with Trango about their new 24GHz radios.
They will do 1024QAM, and as such more efficient with spectrum, and can 
have smaller channel sizes.

Of-course, channel size will affect throughput.. and the Trango Radios 
are going to be a bit more expensive.

No examples to cite yet, but it should be fine to have them both on the 
tower, so long as they're not using the same frequency.  AirFiber uses 
solid dishes with a very tight beam; the signal should be way down at 10 
degrees and a meter's spacing.  And the transmitted power output is very 
low.  The only reason I don't think they'd be good on the same frequency 
is that a bird or raindrops might reflect some signal back towards the 
tower.

2013-02-04 Thread Matt Hoppes
Depends on how much throughput is needed.

You could run half-duplex and use two different frequencies (almost 
guaranteed to work), or use the same frequencies and just make sure both 
sides are transmitting and rx on the same frequency.

Yes Faisal, we could certainly do this with adjustable channel sizes and 
polarity. On a 50 MHz channel one could still get 400-600 Mbps full duplex. 
This would allow one to use 50 MHz for one site and 50 MHz for another.

Alternatively, when using our 2' antennas, I believe one can reuse the same 
frequency about every 15 degrees, swapping polarity. I'd have to check the 
pattern on the 3' dishes, but they would probably be able to support frequency 
reuse at 11 degrees.
