Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

other than experiencing some really questionable gigabit connectivity issues and maddening issues with packetflux sync, on POPs i only see rj45 ends valuabled in top end cross connects and radio terminations, everything else should be punched down to cat5/6 inserts and factory terminated patch cabl

Re: [AFMUG] FCC licensing for dummies

A path operating >40MHz is already on the 80MHz channel plan, so you'll likely be fine going from 56/60 to 80. You do not want to be responsible for interfering with another licensee, like public safety would be bad. Increasing channel bandwidth is a definite coordination because it could lead

Re: [AFMUG] FCC licensing for dummies

So, as long as you're using the same channels, it's basically just updating the hardware on the license, and you don't have to go through coordination or anything like that? What about if you're currently using a 56mhz channel and go up to 80mhz? On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 10:42 PM, Seth Mattinen wr

You have to modify the license if you change hardware like that but it’s easy and not expensive (cpl hundred $$ I think but don’t quote me) We do it all the time. Upgrade the core and migrate equipment to the edge etc. -Sean On Wed, Dec 13, 2017 at 9:27 PM Steve Jones wrote: > So, first off,

Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

the biggest cause of failure is not maintaining the blades on ez crimpers. Fresh blades and the ends have zero non ID10T errors (if using the real connectors and not knock offs) moisture --- if you have a drop of water in the connector, its not the connector thats the issue the brown is normally th

Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

Not having issue with moisture...the cable slide guides on some allow cables to be pinched enough to fail even though pin out is correct. For now I am going to attribute to my bad Hombre crimperI like Klein so I will buy one this week. Thanks for heads up Jaime Solorza On Dec 13, 2017 4:34

Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

Jaime, We have been using Platinum tools crimper for their ez-45 jacks. (last 10 years or so ? ) Not sure which Klein model you are looking at, I would not be surprised if the Klein is an oem by Platinum Tools. In regards to comments about moisture and shorting ... cannot say we have seen t

Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

They are "easy" if you have never done an RJ45 before, and you can verify the colors easier after insertion. However, they leave the end open for water & air intrusion. On outdoor connections, we almost always use gel-filled cable, and when you crimp them properly, they fill the RJ45 with gel.

I've never used those. Seems like people either love em or hate em. I imagine it must be easier to maintain the maximum untwist amount. It seems like you could keep shoving the wires through until you only have the 1/4" of untwisted wire you're looking for. That's pure speculation though.

Re: [AFMUG] Cable crimpers for RJ-45 work

I used those when I first started, I am also not a fan. I had all kinds of problems with getting them to fit the Ethernet port on Canopy SMs, the release tab didn't want to snap into place. Having said that, I still have a couple of the Platinum Tools crimpers and they work fine. On Wednesday, Dec
