Re: [WISPA] Aerial / Self-Support Cat5
Pretty good catalog Mark Has some great aerial illustrations on proper hardware. This week we hung out aerial fiber from our noc to the tank. It was a 550' span 275' across a big creek. We used figure 8 fiber with lashes and as well as a couple cable messenger clamps. I had to use a 12' surf rod to get across the creek. Was fun work. Now I have to learn to terminate the fiber so I can use it.

Re: [WISPA] Aerial / Self-Support Cat5
Be careful. If you go building to building with different power transformers, or even different meters, you can get current flow over the grounded messenger and or the shield in the cat 5. You may want to only ground at one end but the potential voltage will still be there at the other end and could be a shock hazard. D. Ryan Spott wrote: > WOW!

Yes that is the correct terminology. I have not looked for that recently. In the several instances we have needed that, I have purchased steel "aircraft" cable and strung it as the messenger. Then we have loosely spiraled the cat5 around that. No worry about tape coming loose or wire ties pinching the wire and it does not droop, either.

Re: [WISPA] Aerial / Self-Support Cat5
In a pinch, I've actually used a separate piece of Cat-5 as the support wire, with the data wire loosely tie-wrapped to it. Then again, many of the houses I install have so many holes in the walls I don't need to drill one for the entry point.

[WISPA] Aerial / Self-Support Cat5
Got an application where I need an aerial run from an AP on a light pole to a building - about 50ft or so. I've seen the aerial Cat5 with a "messenger" cable (is that the right terminology??) connected to it somewhere a year or so ago, but can't find it again. Anyone know if this is available? I've found fiber like this, but no Cat5/6. Have seen both terms - aerial and self-support Cat-5 used but neither search has been very helpful for me. Thanks! WISPA Wants You!
