Proxim officially changed their name to Terabeam.  Terabeam HX still makes 
the GB radios for Terabeam/Proxim.
They are alive and well.

Re: [WISPA] UL 1Gbps Link

2008-05-01 Thread Tom DeReggi
Sure Bridgewave is best of class, but it has a pricelevel to match, almost 
double that of Proxim.

 Terror Beam :-)

It very well can be, when someone tries to isntall it who does not yet have 
enough experience with that specific product.  There was a learning curve, 
but we have gotten it down to a science, and I assure these radios can 
perform.

Terabeam is an excellent product. However there are a number of tradeoffs in 
their solution, that the users needs to be aware of, and plan for a head of 
time, if they want a smooth installation.

1) It uses Fiber not CAT6, so installer needs to know how to install 
troubleshoot fiber.
2) It is like a modem, in the sense that the data flows accross the radio, 
but the radio electronics don't touch it, so things like bit error rate or 
port stats are not possible. So the radio won't diagnose a link for you. 
This means that if a problem occurs, while live in service, its harder to 
know what component is the culprit. The secret is to install a device on the 
LAN side, that creates a clear Demarc, that can be used to test and monitor 
for packet loss.  It also means that someone can't conclusively diagnose the 
radio's operation effectively with a P3 filed laptop w/ 100mb Nic.
3) The Terabeam is also unforgiving. Everything has got to be done 100% by 
the book. The installer should not be over confident, they need to seek 
advise in advance on their first install, and is not a radio that harry home 
owner can just install successfully.
4) To troubleshoot it, it often means taking it offline. Which is perfectly 
fine for an enterprise/corporate solution. However, for an ISP, it would be 
imparative to have a backup link to use, during times maintenance were 
necessary. That plan needs to be planned out before installation.
5) Proxim tech support can be awesome, but you need to document your install 
step by step by pre-defined protocol, so Proxim has the info they need to 
help you, otherwise you won't get the help you want.

If 300mbps will do, and/or you need to go over .5 miles, I fully agree, the 
Trango Giga rocks.
It has worked amazingly well for us. Never lost a beat.  It was like the 
easiest radio that we ever installed.

 It won't get you to 1Gbps, but Trango has their Giga links on sale
 for about $10k.  That is 100Mbps full duplex, then another $1500 gets
 you a software upgrade key to 300Mbps full duplex.

 That would be a licensed link at 18GHz.

Re: [WISPA] UL 1Gbps Link

2008-04-30 Thread Brad Belton
This is well out of your budget for this project, but we recently put up a
BridgeWave 80GHz with 2' antennas.  Nice gear aside from the rinky-dink ODU
enclosure.  Pretty amazing to see a product at that price level with a
plastic single edge housing seal with one center thumb screw holding the lid
on.  Good thing we bought a spare for the shelf because I don't see how
water won't get in eventually.

The gear has performed as expected.  Full Duplex GigE and auto-rates down to
100MB FDX if necessary.  It has withstood some pretty brutal storms the past
several months and has only completely dropped traffic for about 10-15
seconds during the worst of it.

The link is 2.35 miles, so we're very pleased with the overall uptime.

I'm not sure you can find a GigE link for under $20K.  Have you tried Steven
Patrick with http://www.cablefreesolutions.com ?

Best,


Brad

Re: [WISPA] UL 1Gbps Link

2008-04-30 Thread Bob Moldashel
Done a good quantity of BridgeWave and have had no issues with water  
incursion.  Did a dual 80 Ghz. (one of the first deployments :-P  )  
last year.  2 links running side by side with less than 100 ft  
separation (factory wanted 400+ feet but the cost to make the  
building wider prohibited that.  That link was over 2 miles also.

The 60 Ghz. product lists for under $20K.  Proxim's Gigabeam (which I  
think was Terror Wave g) is less than that.  Bridgewave has a  
licensed 80 Ghz. system while Proxim has a licensed 70 Ghz.
