I didn't realize the PTP450 didn't have gigabit ethernet in it. In that case, there's always a syncpipe parasitic. Yes, one more (short) cable, but functionally similar to the uGPS.I.E. uGPS = cable from poe injector to radio and cable from radio to uGPS. Parasitic = cable from PoE

The RJ45s appear to be shielded (looking at rev H1). The RJ11 for the timing port is not. -- bp part {dash} 15 {at} SkylineBroadbandService {dot} com On 11/25/2014 5:54 AM, Matt via Af wrote: I didn't realize the PTP450 didn't have gigabit ethernet in it. In that case, there's always a

[AFMUG] Sync Pipe and UGPS Power

2014-11-24 Thread Matt via Af
I see the PTP230 and likely PTP450 have UGPS Power option. Is there a way to use this to power up a sync pipe? Still very very very disappointed the PTP450 does not support Sync over Power.

So when you enable UGPS Power in options what does it do? Is 5 volt suddenly output on certain pins of the timing port? What pins? Nope. But you can use Forrest's SyncConverter to take the sync pulse from a CMM/CTM/SyncInjector and convert it to timing port at the radio. Or just put a

I don't think it would be a bad idea to have a SyncPipe type device powered by UGPS capable radios. Less cabling is a benefit. If sync-over-power takes a shit on an AP, it would be easy to toss a UGPS-like receiver on it. Etc. I think if it was the cost of a Basic pipe, that would be fine.

We have PTP450 running on a syncpipe. Wished it could have worked with the syncinjector we have at the same site, but oh well. -- bp part {dash} 15 {at} SkylineBroadbandService {dot} com On 11/24/2014 4:58 PM, Forrest Christian (List Account) via Af wrote: It's been a while since I looked at
