Hello all, I am part of a group installing a wireless network in rural Honduras for a growing educational system with a chapter of Engineers Without Borders (http://ewb-usa.org). We are creating a 7 node wireless network spanning a 3 mile radius. Since Honduras is very prone to rain storms and lightning strikes, we need to protect our equipment from the lightning. We plan on doing the following:
1) Place an arrestor between the radio and the antenna 2) Place an arrestor in the POE injector Some of the following criteria we are thinking: Amount of lightning strikes: One or Many Insertion Loss: Small as possbile Frequency : 2.4-5.8 GHZ When searching the internet, I see many many types of lightning arrestors given my criteria. Does anyone have any recommendations through their experience with lightning arrestors? What do you use? Thanks!
