Re: [WISPA] MT announces RB192 and RB333
Maybe someone can post the link to the FCC docs showing their certification? Also, you will notice their PoE only supports up to 28VDC now, rather than 48VDC like the RB532. They probably couldn't get the boards to pass FCC at 48V.

Re: [WISPA] MT announces RB192 and RB333
Are you finding v3 to be a stable, functioning OS right now? I attempted to load it on a 532 board about two months ago and the board would reboot or lock-up about every 3-5 days. I put 2.9.40 back and it has been up solid since then. I did see about a 10% improvement on the wireless speeds with v3, but it just wasn't stable.

RE: [WISPA] MT announces RB192 and RB333
Chipping in here, To be fair to MT: AFAIK It's harder/more expensive to design 48V-input power supplies (the chips on most boards require some mix of 5.0/3.3/2.5V or other rails) than lower voltages. Of course 48V is desirable by users, because of lower cable loss, enabling longer runs. I had this debate with the MT people some time back, in favour of 48V. It seems there are far more 12-30V chipsets, and easier-to-implemet designs, than at 48V. Also, telco environments always have 48V (36-72 a common spec) But commercial pressures (people only buy high volumes at low price points) probably guided the 28V max non-isolated decision. Also, relevant point: Some boards out ther have **isolated** input PSUs. The RB532 and 112 for example. However, most boards don't. Well isolation costs money (read: custom-wound transformer, other components) but non-isolated designs are cheaper. Well that depends on your deployments - some environments cope with non-isolated roof/tower-top devices fine - and some don't. Important to consider that. I hope that comment is of help - Regards Stephen Patrick CableFree Solutions -Original Message- From: Travis Johnson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 04 August 2007 19:13 To: WISPA General List Subject: Re: [WISPA] MT announces RB192 and RB333 Maybe someone can post the link to the FCC docs showing their certification?
