Re: [AFMUG] Packetflux basic versus parasitic?

Uh, no. Definitely not good.

Here's one of mine for comparison. Which is also where I'm having odd 
issues with two 3GHz 450 sectors. Not to mention the same problems at 
sites with parasitics. I have another SyncInjector at another site 
running a 5GHz 450 AP and it works fine. Plus dozens and dozens of 
deluxe and parasitics on FSK and 2.4 and 5GHz 450 which all work fine. 
So it's not the timing devices. Something about the 3GHz 450 is just 
different.


Anyway.. I cleared the events, I forget, maybe a month or two ago after 
I cycled the pipe to see if that fixed anything, which it did not. I use 
the event counters with Cacti thresholds to alert me when something 
happens. I look to see what happened, then I clear the counters to get 
the threshold out of warn/alert status. That sorta messes up the RRDs 
for one cycle, but oh well.

Something in the FPGA code or some other logic screwed up. I have

Hey Forrest, any luck on the updated build for the Base-1's, minus the

my indexed Cacti template works for both Base-1's and 2's.

We're doing the same thing thresholding on the 1PPS Active counter. But 
we (still) don't have any of our 3GHz PMP450s in the air yet. Was hoping 
to have at least one of them up this week, but it's not worked out that way.


We are getting messages like these in the event log of the affected APs:

   03/02/2015 : 20:06:20 PDT : Lost sync pulse from Power Port.
   03/02/2015 : 20:06:20 PDT : Acquired sync pulse from Power Port.

The loss doesn't last long, but I think it resets the session counters 
on all the SMs.

We only have a couple of syncpipe parasitics in stock; can one of

Not this one.  This one is running a pair of PMP450s in 5 GHz.

We're putting up a pair of PMP450s soon on different POPs; one will go 
into a syncinjector, the other will be a CTM.


Is there some issue that you're seeing on the 3GHz varaiety?

Doesn't matter. The RJ45's are just pass-thru. The new universal pipes 
pull power from two pins, so it can be used with either PMP100/450 or 
430 APs. But I always have the guys put the jumper out to the radio 
into the center RJ45 and the cable from the injector to the RJ45 with 
the LEDs, just as standard practice, not that it matters.


I do have a question for you about this though.. is this SyncInjector 
running 3GHz 450 APs?

Thanks George!

i take it from the description that this boogers up the power/outputs 
such that (ether?) RJ45 on the parasitic can be used to connect to 
the syncinjector?  One of the RJ45s has lights, and the other is just 
a vanilla shielded RJ45 (I'm looking at a rev H1).  So I can just 
build this little jumper for between the 6p6c and the adjacent RJ45, 
then use the outer RJ45 to connect to the syncinjector?
