I sent out a data sheet for the ethernet traveler cable that we used here
earlier in the thread. Feel free to ping me directly if it didn't come
through for you.

Our security installer uses coax to Ethernet converters for elevator IP cams

some solid-core installed along the traveler in a new building in 2010 and it
failed within a year due to the constant flexing. Though I'm sure something
must have been engineered by now to fit the bill.
I'd be curious to know if anyone has a spec for a traveler cable with Cat5 or
better built in.

I have seen POE IP Cameras in (newer) elevators – I’m sure additional

Subject: Re: [WIRELESS-LAN] Purpose-Built Wireless Coverage in Stairwells
and Elevators
It’s a really great question just considering new/major re-work. I’m
wondering if the elevator manufacturers might start remodeling the elevators
to allow for wireless access points in addition to the emergency phones
already required. To that point I wonder if it will eventually become part
of the local building codes.

Hi Don-
I agree on the costs. I’m thinking opportunistically, like where a major
re-work or new building might be in work versus retrofit. There’s a lot of
technical and philosophical points to be considered, for sure.

Lee,
Our thoughts and planning on this subject started about the time I read your
email. J
I have not given any thought to this before but your email has raised
questions as to what we might need to consider going forward. Considering
how we would implement something like this in our current
buildings/facilities would be a challenge and a potentially costly one.

Elevators
Hello to the excellent group.
As you get into new building wireless deployments, I’m wondering if anyone
is rethinking their coverage of elevators (like with dedicated coverage in
each car) and stairwells (also specific coverage, not just bleed out from
hallways) now that we’re into the era of Wi-FI calling, RTLS, safety apps, etc.
Granted, if you have an established VoWiFi culture, the question may seem
low-brow, for the rest of us I’d love to hear your thoughts on what you are
doing with WLAN in stairwells and elevators, what you’re planning on doing
differently from what you’ve done in the past (if anything), whys and
why-nots, and general thoughts on the topic.
Thanks-
