[WISPA] LDAP
Someone asked why I didn't use some sort of directory system like eDirectory, LDAP, Active Directory, etc. within my WISP. I shrugged my shoulders and said I dunno, that's just not how I've seen things. A friend of mine also once told me that I should have an LDAP server, but I forget how\why it would be used. Those of you using LDAP (or another directory system), how are you using it? -- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com WISPA Wants You!

Ping me offlist for any pricing on Airspan. David Peterson WirelessGuys Inc. 'On 1/25/08 12:10 PM, Eric Muehleisen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I'm sorry guys. Price was not discussed. A quote will be delivered to me shortly. I will post cost as soon as I see it. I'm hoping early next week. I do have a sales order for one Redline RedMAX base station with outdoor CPE if anyone is interested...offlist. FYI...I'm not in any shape or form affiliated with Airspan or Redline.

If Redline's 15 mbit throughput per 7.5 MHz is correct and is similar to other products in this band, a 10 MHz product would have 20 mbit throughput.

Mike's comments below are accurate with regard to Redline's equipment. However, it should be noted that Redline was not able to get their gear certified at the full power output allowable for 3.65.

Remember, 3.65 was originally supposed to be for the rural market, which means either Redline went wrong somewhere or the FCC did.

hipermax = super damn expensive- George I can send you a quote from a reseller off list- micromax= cheaper than VL.

My point of view is based on Redline's statement of what their gear can do coupled with the documents filed with the FCC for their certification. The most I could get out of a PtP link was about 7 miles. With a 90* sector, only about 5 miles. I agree that all else the same 3.65 is better than 5.x GHz, only it isn't because the power isn't there. The throughput isn't there for WiMax compliant equipment due to small channels. If there were larger channel sizes, yes, it would support higher throughput applications. According to
