Re: [WISPA] Cisco Wireless Bridges
Don, I did test the 1400 integrated units as a PtP bridge last summer for 60 days. Worked flawlessly. Never set it up as an AP though. I liked that it used two runs of 75ohm cable up the tower to the units with three grounding blocks along the 150 ft path. I didn't keep them because the Trango Atlas units we tested also preformed flawlessly and were half the price. I'm not sure it was the right decision as it was the Trango unit on that tower that took the lightning strike last night outside Louisville, nasty storms. Lost the protected POE, the radio, and the Ethernet surge on that line. None of the other 6 radios in use even had a hiccup but are all coax not POE. Heliax LDF7 LDF6 and 4.5. Now that I have it to do over again, I'll use elliptical coax for the 5.3 GHz link along with external antennas. I do have a used 1/2 Trango Atlas Bridge 5010M-INT for sale if anyone is interested. Otherwise I'll put it on eBay next week. First dibs goes to a WISPA member. Send an e-mail off list please.

Re: [WISPA] WR 900 question
Chris, We had a similar situation this week and found that our cavity filter was the cause of our problem. I have a number of the 2.5db loss filters from WR we got five years ago. None have ever been mounted outdoors. When we opened it up we found calcium deposits in the copper tuning tubes. We user CLR to clean them and re-inserted in the filters - problem gone. I had a newer .5db loss filter in an attic of one of our buildings this past summer, gets up to 150F in the attic. That filter also had calcium inside. One day all the clients started dropping off line. That one didn't appear as noise, but as signal loss. An old machine shop guy told me that aluminum would draw moisture into it over time. Having been a physicist 30 years ago, I'm not sure I believe what he said but he's been around for 50 years doing metal work. Anyone else have a thought on aluminum drawing moisture through itself into the filter. Dave Hulsebus Portative Technologies chris cooper wrote: We have a WR 900 MHz cell that saw a sudden 10 db jump in noise. Running spec ans from other towers doesn't show this rise in noise in the same band. Doing sweeps from the tower using another device, albeit 600' lower than the affected ap, we still don't see the noise floor rise, even when we run a scan pointed straight at the ap. I know we cant exactly mirror conditions at the ap from a lower altitude, but shouldn't we see some of the noise that it is reporting? Im wondering if we have a bad piece of gear up there... CPE units seem to be receiving signal as normal, but ap side is having trouble hearing them. Could wet connectors cause behavior - we had torrential rain followed by high heat.

Re: [WISPA] Needs - Antenna Mast
Cliff, We are buying 40 and 50 ft telescopic poles from Nello in Bremen, IN. I only buy them when we are ordering tower sections so we send our own truck and trailer. Not sure how much freight would be. Rohn makes a 30 - 40 - 50 ft. units as does Nello - they bought out portions of Rohn a few years back. Tessco carries the Rohn 50 ft for around $100.

[WISPA] Re: Wireless Digest, Vol 26, Issue 11
Jim, I echo feelings that sectors and an in depth look at the spectrum already in use in the areas you wish to serve. You must become familiar with your landscape. Sometimes hills that block signals can be a good thing because they also block a lot of interferences. 900MHz tends to travel 50 or more miles unobstructed. I use those hills to cover small 60-90 degree wedges that would have otherwise been reachable because of the same hills Water tanks have been helpful to fill in areas but my greatest success has come from towers twice the distance or more above treetops. My coverage area is very hilly with a lot of trees. I have been happy using WaveRider gear and the filters designed for their systems. It's more expensive using towers because of coaxial cable costs, but I also don't have to climb a tower to fix a radio problem. As I've deployed on water tanks in the area our costs are less than Motorola Canopy systems and we have more channel choices - 7 verses 3 or 4 for Canopy I think. Canopy systems use an 8MHz wide channel, whereas WaveRider uses a 5.5 MHz channel and others as low as 5MHz. Of course the top and bottom channels 905 and 925 can become unusable in many environments because of paging and cell systems. I've been able to structure my sectors that we can use them anyway. We use a mix of horizontal and vertical polarization base station antennas. We use Antel antennas - watch the numbers they measure power in dbd verses dbi. As a rule of thumb you add 2.1 to dbd to estimate dbi. I have recently tried Tiltek and PacWireless antennas but will go back to Antel for our future deployments. Again more expensive than others but my experience says they are worth it. Adjacent transmission sites get opposite polarity antennas and as much separation between channels as I can get if they point at each other or can be seen by each other. On some transmission sites I use 3 - 120 deg sectors, others maybe a 180 deg and a 90 or two 90's, I have one site with one 120 because that's all I needed to cover and when you use multiples transmitters on a site you need separation between channels. I'm not all that familiar with Motorola gear but others on the list are. They have a GPS sync function that allows them to reuse more channels throughout their network. I don't want to start a feature / religious war about brands but these are my 5 plus years 900MHz experiences. I've found no two sites are anywhere near the same as I've designed and built my system from the center out. We now operate more than 20 transmission sites around a county in southern Indiana. I have 12-15 more to go before we cover 95% plus of the people and we'll probably get there this year. I will say that WaveRiders throughput is more limited 2 MB verses 6MB for Canopy. In my area that hasn't been an issue yet. I have heard of an 8MB POE transmitter due out this summer. Maybe Scott Carlson, who is a vendor member, would like to comment. grin. I've have tested Canopy, Trango, Tranzeo, and Ubiquiti cards and without filters none will work very well. Without filters noise floors can be 80db or less. With filters and the right design you can get better than 90db in most cases. I've tried entire band filters 902-928 and found them to be mostly ineffective in eliminating the noise from pagers and cells sites. The biggest problem I see in looking at Tranzeo, and Ubiquiti, other than the later isn't certified, is the lack of filter availability. WaveRider's filters are centered around the channels they support and that's made all the difference for us. Some of our sites were designed to transmit 3 miles because that was our target, others are designed to go 8 miles because that was our target. Your maximum power output is 4 watts or 36 EIRP but you don't always have to put out that much power, sometimes less is better. My disclaimer. I don't own or have interest in any of the companies I've discussed other than my own. Just my thoughts.

Re: [WISPA] shielded rj45 ends
Thanks Josh, We've tried that, a bit, more than a bit, pulled to the breaking point, none of that makes a difference. We've tried multiple crimping tools. We can put a non-shielded connector on and it snaps right in. We didn't notice this issue until these last three boxes purchased in late May. That's why I ask if others have seen this. Looking at the connector under a magnifier, I can see a difference between tabs on them and other shielded and non-shielded connectors. The difference is the distance from the front of the connector to the tab's indentation made where it snaps and locks. I haven't gotten the caliper out to measure yet and can't seem to get a good picture with the camera we have here today. I will bring in a camera tomorrow and see if if I can get a picture of them side by side. It happens to NB's we've had in the field for more than a year as well.
