Yeah, higher voltage = lower current = less energy lost as heat

though if all your loads are 24v (Canopy, UBNT, Mikrotik) then 
starting with 24 saves you a conversion.

Re: [AFMUG] Canopy POE end of life :-/

2015-06-26 Thread Mark Radabaugh
The choice between 24 and 48 was likely more a component cost issue.   The 
higher voltage components on the POE are more expensive than lower voltage / 
higher current.   The original power supplies for Canopy were linear supplies.  
Less of an issue now that the components for switching power supplies have 
dropped in price so much that linear supplies are more expensive that switchers.

straight into their router.

 DUHHH... Like whats this for??

I was hoping for more of a change where the unit gets plugged straight 
into the wall outlet with a highlighted
port for POE and the other for data. Sort of like the 6 ac outlet surge 
protectors you can find.

Get rid of the ac pigtail.

Agreed. The issue I have been experiencing is that many new high-power 
radios are coming out (e.g. AF5/AF24) in 48V. Even one of these can tip 
the balance of power toward 48V, so at that point it makes sense to bite 
the bullet, and convert to 48V.

Re: [AFMUG] Canopy POE end of life :-/

2015-06-25 Thread Mark Radabaugh
Pretty much the same here - we bought out what we could find.

I don’t like the extra cost of the power cord and the additional Ethernet 
cable.  More connections is just more places to screw it up.  In addition we 
now have several thousand of the old style mixed in with the new style.   Makes 
supporting it over the phone harder when we can’t tell the customer what they 
are looking for.

I have been trying to figure out how to buy these direct from the OEM 
manufacturer but have not had much luck yet.

 Where upon, I had to reverse the connection, show him that it worked. Only
 then was he satisfied that it was correct, but poorly labeled.

 At that point, I covered up the Tycon labeling, and pasted on labeling

 Never underestimate the ability of a non-technical person to misunderstand

Cambium couldn't use standard poe because when they started development -

Also if they had used 48v the POE injectors would cost about 3x as much.

 cambium after all is in the business of selling light bulbs (SMs) and if

 continue selling the socket AND the light bulb.

 unfortunately this all goes back to the very beginning of not using a

   The one I have sitting here says Phihong but it’s old enough to be
 Motorola not Cambium.

 If Cambium was worried about losing a bunch of sales, they wouldn’t be
 dropping the product.  My guess is it’s a minimum order thing.  They
 probably have to order X thousands at a time and the last order took them a
 year or two to unload to distributors, and it was time to decide whether to
 order another container load of them and have them take up warehouse space,
 plus now they would be carrying two versions of POE.

 So if CTI or another distributor wanted to order a bunch direct from the
 manufacturer (or a knockoff from somewhere else), it would be reasonable to
 expect Cambium to give the OK.  I wouldn’t expect them to cry over the lost
 revenue though.

 With the speed keys and regional variants they have a large amount of
 product stock already, I imagine they're not trying to keep old items and
 didn't see a big reason people would want the old-style PSUs.

 I thought CTI had gotten some PSUs straight from the manufacturer years
 ago when there was a Motorola shortage, you could check with them.

   I'm one of those that prefer the new PoE:

 -less outlet space needed
 -gigabit option (current 450 SMs can reach 75mbit down so it's likely
 next generation will hit 100+)
 -can choose whatever cable length is needed to go to PC/router.
 -won't have the broken RJ tab / wires pulling out of the RJ due to
 cable weight issues of the current PoE model

 With very big TO COMPUTER / ROUTER   TO OUTSIDE ANTENNA labels, on
 both sides of the unit, customer wiring mistakes will be almost eliminated.
 I haven't seen that as a big problem on the PMP320.

I think a big part of the issue with customers plugging things in wrong is
labelling. Data and Data+Power means nothing to the typical caveman
customer. We've been putting stickers on UBNT power supplies for years
labelling the ports Antenna and PC/Router and we rarely get customers
plugging them in wrong.

Absotutely. I actually had a subscriber argue with me about the 
correct connection required for a Tycon POE (which I consider fairly 
straightforward and easy to understand). Yet he insisted that it be 
connected the opposite way.


Where upon, I had to reverse the connection, show him that it worked. 
Only then was he satisfied that it was correct, but poorly labeled.


At that point, I covered up the Tycon labeling, and pasted on labeling 
that satisfied him. Now everybody is happy.


Never underestimate the ability of a non-technical person to 
misunderstand labels and/or instructions.

 Thanks for the link josh.  They normally cost ~$10 so the eBay price of
 $24 is someone trying to make a buck on them before they are gone.  Also
 eventually eBay will run out too so that's not a long term solution.

  Absotutely. I actually had a subscriber argue with me about the correct 
connection required for a Tycon POE (which I consider fairly straightforward 
and easy to understand). Yet he insisted that it be connected the opposite way.

  Where upon, I had to reverse the connection, show him that it worked. Only 
then was he satisfied that it was correct, but poorly labeled.

  At that point, I covered up the Tycon labeling, and pasted on labeling that 
satisfied him. Now everybody is happy.

  Never underestimate the ability of a non-technical person to misunderstand

  Just because you have made this decision doesn't mean it's a good

In addition to the useability factors the old Poe was $8 the new one is $20
+ a cable $4 so 3x the cost per install now :-/

I fail to see why cambium can't allow us to buy which ever one we want.

If you can really get $24 for them on eBay, I need to look for any NIB ones I 
have laying around.  That’s more than I can get for PMP100 SMs.  Who would have 
thought the POEs would be worth more than the radios.

What SM can do more than 100mbps in one direction

That's fine if they want to sell the new POEs with whatever new product is
coming out but at least let us buy the old ones if we want to.  Completely
removing them from the market is really frustrating.

We never drank the 320 koolaid.

Even the Telrad POE for the subscriber side is gigabit and caveman proof.
The new cambium one is just dumb.

Wellthe Telrad PoE for the 7000SU is similar to Canopy, with a built 
in pigtail that plugs into the customer router/PC...albeit slightly 
longer.  Every previous generation of Telrad/Alvarion had a midspan POE.

http://routerboard.com/RBmAP2n has POE out.

Unfortunately we have found that with a 50 foot cat5 run and surge

The one I have sitting here says Phihong but it’s old enough to be

If Cambium was worried about losing a bunch of sales, they wouldn’t be 
dropping the product.  My guess is it’s a minimum order thing.  They 
probably have to order X thousands at a time and the last order took 
them a year or two to unload to distributors, and it was time to 
decide whether to order another container load of them and have them 
take up warehouse space, plus now they would be carrying two versions 
of POE.
So if CTI or another distributor wanted to order a bunch direct from 
the manufacturer (or a knockoff from somewhere else), it would be 
reasonable to expect Cambium to give the OK.  I wouldn’t expect them 
to cry over the lost revenue though.

  Thanks for the link josh.  They normally cost ~$10 so the eBay price 
of $24 is someone trying to make a buck on them before they are gone.  Also 
eventually eBay will run out too so that's not a long term solution.

  Dear Cambium,



  Why won't you let us buy the ACPSSW-13B POE if we still want to?



  It's very frustrating that we now have to change our install 
procedures AND our tech support procedures.  The new POE is also very 
cumbersome and prone to clients plugging things in backwards etc.



  Can you either keep selling them or give us access to the

Re: [AFMUG] Canopy POE end of life :-/

2015-06-25 Thread George Skorup
We had the same internal discussion. Customers are stupid. Things can 
only go one way with the Canopy PoE. However, we've had a lot less SMs 
lost to surges since we switched to the Laird POE-24iR's. Honestly, it 
wasn't a hard transition. The techs are able to walk customers through 
making sure things are plugged in correctly. /shrug


And FWIW, your standard POE argument doesn't work. Canopy was baked 
before there was 802.3af. Cisco aironet, too, which originally used the 
same pinout as Canopy as well. And Trango. Shit, we were POE hacking 
Apple AirPorts and RG1000s in late 2002.

i'm just saying that the financial decision for carrying the old and

cambium after all is in the business of selling light bulbs (SMs) and 
if you need a special socket to use their light bulb it might behoove 
them to continue selling the socket AND the light bulb.


unfortunately this all goes back to the very beginning of not using a 
standard poe product.


by the way we are not planning to move all new installs to telrad that 
statement was for dramatic effect ;-)

Re: [AFMUG] Canopy POE end of life :-/

2015-06-25 Thread Ken Hohhof
The one I have sitting here says Phihong but it’s old enough to be Motorola not 
Cambium.

If Cambium was worried about losing a bunch of sales, they wouldn’t be dropping 
the product.  My guess is it’s a minimum order thing.  They probably have to 
order X thousands at a time and the last order took them a year or two to 
unload to distributors, and it was time to decide whether to order another 
container load of them and have them take up warehouse space, plus now they 
would be carrying two versions of POE.

So if CTI or another distributor wanted to order a bunch direct from the 
manufacturer (or a knockoff from somewhere else), it would be reasonable to 
expect Cambium to give the OK.  I wouldn’t expect them to cry over the lost 
revenue though.

That will be really funny if CTI sources them and moto looses out on a
bunch of sales, lol

 I thought CTI had gotten some PSUs straight from the manufacturer years
 ago when there was a Motorola shortage, you could check with them.

 Why can't I have a choice?  Why are they taking it away if there is still
 demand?  Why won't they let us go straight to whatever manufacturer they
 get them from??

 I'm one of those that prefer the new PoE:

 next generation will hit 100+)
 -can choose whatever cable length is needed to go to PC/router.
 -won't have the broken RJ tab / wires pulling out of the RJ due to cable
 weight issues of the current PoE model

 With very big TO COMPUTER / ROUTER   TO OUTSIDE ANTENNA labels, on
 both sides of the unit, customer wiring mistakes will be almost eliminated.
 I haven't seen that as a big problem on the PMP320.

 Ray can you please come and hang out with one of my clients for a day

 Just because you have made this decision doesn't mean it's a good
 decision and we are asking cambium to reconsider.  The new POE sucks!

 Thanks for the link josh.  They normally cost ~$10 so the eBay price
 of $24 is someone trying to make a buck on them before they are gone.  
 Also
 eventually eBay will run out too so that's not a long term solution.



 Come on cambium listen to your long time loyal customers!

 Dear Cambium,



 Why won't you let us buy the ACPSSW-13B POE if we still want to?



 It's very frustrating that we now have to change our install
 procedures AND our tech support procedures.  The new POE is also very
 cumbersome and prone to clients plugging things in backwards etc.



 Can you either keep selling them or give us access to the manufacturer
 so that we can still buy them?

How much do you think they make per Canopy PSU after the stockkeeping / freight 
/organizational work? $3 ? I'm sure losing those sales won't keep them up at 
night.

So what does Telrad's POE look like?  Is it the same unshielded pigtail
style?
