Re: [WISPA] Best cat5 for a monopole
I am considering an S16 for MDU applications. A couple strands of SFP+ going back to central switching\routing and some 12 gauge copper for power. - Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP - Original Message - From: "Clay Stewart"To: "WISPA General List" Sent: Wednesday, January 18, 2017 5:16:55 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] Best cat5 for a monopole So far so good! The 16 port is just a switch, smaller ones are routers. The 16 is what we are using. powers 4 48vdc and 12-16 24vdc. Spring storm season will tell. Considering the number of fried Netonics and Digital Loggers over the years, with not just surge damage, but issues in software... this caused the switch back about 6 months ago. Using Traco power supply systems with battery backups and 110AC and DC surging, plus UPS 110.

Re: [WISPA] Best cat5 for a monopole
That's adding unnecessary electronics in the mix.
