[WISPA] CRM and Trouble ticketing software
Hi List, it's been quite a while I'm looking to set up a contact center for my clients with a CRM integrated to FreePBX as well as trouble ticketing software. I want to deploy all the systems on premise not hosted. What solutions have you used and what do you recommend? How do you rate Bitrix24?

[WISPA] 48v DC power for Cisco 2960c
Hi List, Looking for a 48v regulator/POE to power a Cisco 2960c from 48v solar power source I expect that this would have to take a wide range input 40v - 56v and output a steady 48v One other question, will the POE be 802.3af or is it 802.3at?

Now in the 7th day of testing on the LM317 DC voltage regulator for the NSM5 and it's all good news. I regulated the voltage up to about 20v average and the LM317 doesn't even get warm.

Re: [WISPA] Another Ubiquity question
Thanks Greg, I can see how putting load on just one part of the battery bank could cause issues but this load is quite small compared to the total battery capacity. I will be putting only 8w on two 150Ah 12v batteries (3600Wh total capacity). It would take 400 hours to deplete the battery bank with this load only, do you still think this will be a problem? If this will be a problem I could have the load moved from one bank to the other at a scheduled maintenance visit say twice a year. I really appreciate the advice.

If you were charging the bank with an AC charger that charges each battery individually according to it's needs that wouldn't be a problem. But if you're charging the entire bank with a single device that charges the entire string in series like a 24v solar charger that is not a good way to go. You'd be better off with a 24v to 12v regulator.

Re: [WISPA] UBNT AirFiber Radio Pics
My thoughts exactly Tom, I just kept thinking just how nice this would be if there was a version with a smaller antenna, 1/5th of the spectrum and 50Mbps guaranteed duplex throughput. The characteristics of this radio limit its use to either backhaul or linking nearby office locations. The price on the other hand is approaching last mile access territory, what we really need is a 24GHz radio with half the antenna size and 1/5th the capacity for half the price. I can't help feeling that this radio was developed purely from the technology point of view without a lot of marketing input, make it faster and cheaper but really what a lot of ISPs need is make it more reliable and cheaper. The competition at the high end for many ISPs is 100Mbps PON, at the low end it's plain old DSL, many of us just need a solution to deliver several high quality links from a single location to clients 1-4 miles away without wiping ourselves out with self interference. The integrated GPS sync certainly helps but do we need all that capacity for the majority of our links? This is certainly a game changer but UBNT are you listening? - - - *Olufemi Adalemo* On Tue, Mar 27, 2012 at 5:06 PM, Tom DeReggi wirelessn...@rapiddsl.netwrote: Any way you look at it, the UBNT 24Ghz product is a game changer. Its bringing a price point, that will mass excellerate the adoption of 24Ghz use. At that price, there are 1000s of uses. Its very exciting. Its also a big bonus that it is MIMO, which should give it a good link budget, compared to the methods other technologies use to accommodate dual pol. What I dont like about it is that it uses to much spectrum and is to fast, which will cause parties to deploy faster speeds than they need, simply because they can, and cause more interference in urban areas, and reduce the number of links in an area. Often people incorrectly think that millimeter is like inteference free. What they forget is the low range is based on Rain fade, but when its not raining the signal goes very far, and reflections can reflect all over the place, even though narrow beamwidth. But there will still be a strong market for other products like SAF. For example, windloading and mounting. I jsut bought a SAF radio for that reason, where the 1ft dish option was preferred. SAF also has 256QAM support, quite a bit more efficient than UBNT's 64QAM limit, allowing high speed in smaller channels, allowing more radios to be colocated at a single site. I think UBNT's marketing is their typical overstated marketing.. Just like AIRMAX 5.8 where they promote as 300mb, when in reallity Dual Pol 20Mhz channels, the common size that can be used, yields more like between 40mb and 80mb depending on link budget and noise floor. So in doing apples to apples comparisons, its important to take that into consideration. For example, a 13mile link just isn't going to happen in my rain zone, but might be doable in the desert. With 2ft dishes, I dare not go over 2-1/4 miles, and still prefer under 1.5m. I believe the UBNT 24 product will also put a hurting on the 60Ghz market.

The consultant advisor's optinion was the Linux should be replaced with Cisco, on the merit that a soultion was needed that was well known, so investors would feel more comfortable knowing that operating the network didn't have to rely on me. Then we discussed to operate the Cisco, we would need to hire a $150k per year Cisco engineer, at a cost 4x above the previous year's operating cost. So I responded questioning the consultant, so you are saying we need build a network that relies on a high salary individual other than I? So then if the network breaks, I'd be helpless, and I'd be in deep trouble, if the Network engineer quit or asked for another raise? The advise didn't sit well with me, and it had nothing to do with a technology comparison of the two products types, and I in no way mean to downplay the value of Cisco. My point here is... The most effective router is really the one that the user is most familiar with. It doesn't matter how powerful the Cisco, Juniper and foundry are, if you and your techs dont know how to operate them, when you need to on a moments notice. Its really about, which selection will allow you to more easilly and speedily resolve the task at hand. Its amazing how a $400 Linux Box (such as MIkrotik) can quickly solve a problem. With that said, We've been looking into Juniper lately, I like that their new lines are all based on the same Juno OS, which is Linux. :-) So, my recommendation is... What are you familiar with? Use that. I'm not familiar with the Juniper model and foundry products listed to know if that is a good product to keep or not. What I will say is, if uysing MIktotik, you want to consider more than jsut number of subs. What speed is the Internet backbone the MT would connect to? How would you plan to use the Mikrotik, from a protocol feature perspective? A MT1100 will easilly push 100mb FDX traffic. But if you plan on having a lot of queuing and rules (x200 users), it can be slowed down very quickly. In those cases, its worth paying an extra $200-$400, to upgrade to one of the faster CPUcore type third party hardware models, such as sold by Baltic, Titan, or LinkTechnologies. A Dual core INtel 1.5G-2.4Ghz CPU model are very affordble and adds some horsepower for using MT features.

Re: [WISPA] mikrotik issue.
Here are some common causes of failure for radio links that are seemingly good but fail periodically 1. If you're getting constant interference all through the day: - It may be another radio nearby or even your own transmission on an adjacent band - It could also be a power supply issue, on some mikrotik boards so if you're using 24v you may want to switch to a lower voltage (never experienced this but a lot of people have reported it) - Lastly it could be interference from a high power transmission on another band e.g. a radio station 2. If it is a regular periodic failure (every few seconds) it may be a radar system 3. If it is an irregular periodic problem then it may be an industrial microwave oven 4. If this happens at the hottest or coldest time of day then it may be a connector issue 5. If this happens when it is very windy then check your antenna mount or look for trees and other obstructions in the path of your link 6. Now here's the craziest one I ever experienced - if your link crosses a harbour you may be getting wiped out by a passing ship, ditto for construction sites and cranes This list is by no means exhaustive but will help to eliminate the most common causes of periodic link failure - - - - - Olufemi Adalemo Tel: +234-803-5610040 : +234-809-8610040 f...@adalemo.com On Fri, Oct 7, 2011 at 2:28 PM, Eric Roth er...@webjogger.net wrote: Thanks guys for all the suggestions.

Currently we are looking to replace out Barracuda due to ongoing issues with the box that after several attempts to work with Barracuda can not be resolved. Barracuda is helpful but like to point at other things like DNS and unrelated stuff. In the end they log into the box after wasting time so something to kick the box and we are good for an undetermined amount of time. The Barracuda gives us a few features that we like such as an in house box that we are not paying per email address or domain. Also the per user configurability is great for letting users independently control their white and blacklists. In a nutshell what products should we look at that offer us similar features as the Barracuda box. You can roll your own with Postfix and a few addons. After looking at the configuration options for a lot of the Postfix addons, you come to the realization that with a few hours of work, you can have all of the software tools used by the Barracuda internally, and have root access to the box to fix it yourself when it goes south, instead of waiting on them. You can also throw in things like redundant hard drives, and redundant power. How a company can market a $3k+ device with a single IDE drive in good conscience is beyond me. I can't find the link right now, but there is a package that provides users with an accessible, configurable quarantine, just like the Barracuda. I'll post the link as soon as it turns up.

Been using Postfix since I told Postini to take a hike. They both use a modified version of Postfix and related add-ons. You can make a spam machine out of the cheapest hardware now. I have been doing this for over 3 years and have a much better customer satisfaction.

Currently we are looking to replace out Barracuda due to ongoing issues with the box that after several attempts to work with Barracuda can not be resolved. Barracuda is helpful but like to point at other things like DNS and unrelated stuff. In the end they log into the box after wasting time so something to kick the box and we are good for an undetermined amount of time. The Barracuda gives us a few features that we like such as an in house box that we are not paying per email address or domain. Also the per user configurability is great for letting users independently control their white and blacklists. In a nutshell what products should we look at that offer us similar features as the Barracuda box. You can roll your own with Postfix and a few addons. After looking at the configuration options for a lot of the Postfix addons, you come to the realization that with a few hours of work, you can have all of the software tools used by the Barracuda internally, and have root access to the box to fix it yourself when it goes south, instead of waiting on them. You can also throw in things like redundant hard drives, and redundant power. How a company can market a $3k+ device with a single IDE drive in good conscience is beyond me. I can't find the link right now, but there is a package that provides users with an accessible, configurable quarantine, just like the Barracuda. I'll post the link as soon as it turns up.
