Wondering if anyone has ever run into a similiar problem:

I'm dealing with a contractor who is claiming that our Cisco 1/g 1130s
are interfering with the wired fire alarm system- putting individual
smoke-heads into trouble, causing newly added devices to not be
addressable, etc. He has no basis and can offer no proof, but is making
lot's of noise about his perception.

Knowing that there are thousands of buildings around the country and
world with RF from WLAN, cellular, radio stations, etc. and fire systems
getting along nicely, my first take is that this guy is grasping at
straws. If I stretch my mind, the best I can come up with is his wiring
is acting like an antenna, building up a voltage that shouldn't be
present, and thus maybe creating a condition that points to improper
grounding of his stuff- but I think even that is a reach.

Any thoughts? Have yet to do any real onsite t-shooting with him yet.

Regards-

Lee
