And I can assure you they don't leak. The secret to having your installers get 3 installs done per day is that cable. As a rule of thumb, 98% of the installs should be done in such a way that that 60ft of cable is enough to get inside to the router-If you have a guy running hundreds of feet of cable on each job they will take all day and they won't get 3 installs done.
Factory terminated means I never have to worry about the installers ability to properly ground the shield on the cable on the roof. (or if he "missed" it). I know a lot of WISP don't even bother to use a properly shielded cable but we think it's important. It all adds up to $$$....

We pre-terminate the cable in an effort to speed the installation process. The design of the weatherproof boot is intentional to provide an impervious seal from the elements. Having installed more of these radios than I can count in previous roles, I admit learning another color code can be daunting. But it is only eight conductors. When done properly it tests the same as any other straight cable. Happy Holidays!

Oh, and pre-terminated due to the fact that the RJ45 connector doesn't fit through the weather seal! Just about a millimeter too small! When are you guys going to start using the standard 568A or 568B pin color code and enlarge that weather seal so a RJ45 connector fits through it? Best, Brad -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Patrick Leary Sent: Friday, December 22, 2006 10:31 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: RE: [WISPA] Alvarion Comnet Radios have arrived Thanks for the validation Marty. I suspect that some might have thought there was a catch. I almost forgot that the cable was pre-terminated. That's one of the things we don't highlight enough -- VL CPE does not require hidden extra things to buy like power supplies, cable, connectors, mounting kits, and certainly not antennas. So what's the impact overall to you business model under the AlvarionCOMNET program?

We have deployed a LOT of these radios already and I can tell you this is a great price. I'm looking forward to Alvarion extending this program to other products. (Patrick...)
