knightshade43 Posted April 23, 2005 Author CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 yes it is basic 2 way communication via a 2.4GHz raido (microwave) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted April 23, 2005 CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 What kind of bandwidth do you get on the 5.3Ghz back-haul? Just curious how much data can be pulled through that antenna site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightshade43 Posted April 23, 2005 Author CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 sorry thats a 5.8Ghz we havent put the 5.3 into service yet that will make the next jump to another tower Alvarion says The DS.5800 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted April 23, 2005 CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 The commercial services people at work are testing some wireless gear from Wireless ByPass. Link: http://www.wireless-bypass.com/ It looks interesting, it can hang on our existing strand, and is powered by the 90Volt CATV plant. I only discovered that they were testing it when I was given a telephone outage in the area of the commercial services office. They had one line loose, and it created havoc on the upstream.

just- Posted April 23, 2005 CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 very intresting stuff guys keep posting more information Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted April 23, 2005 CID Share Posted April 23, 2005 The Wireless Bypass gear is made to simulate cable plant. So we can reach customers up to 20 miles out of our service areas. The hub end transceiver is hung on the pole, for example, and aimed at the customer. At the CPE side, that transceiver is set-up, and then you plug your standard Docsis cable modem into the F port, and wallah, you have your high speed data. Attached is a diagram from the manual....

Guest wmmc Posted April 27, 2005 CID Share Posted April 27, 2005 Curious, whats the range of wireless? (tower to tower, tower to house, whatever) I know nothing even after reading the above, so I'm dense, what can I say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dn0 Posted April 28, 2005 CID Share Posted April 28, 2005 knightshade43 would be able to answer your question better than myself. But the gear that we are testing at work has a 20 mile (line of sight) range. That would obviously be tower to tower, or some other high point.

knightshade43 Posted May 1, 2005 Author CID Share Posted May 1, 2005 Curious, whats the range of wireless? (tower to tower, tower to house, whatever) I know nothing even after reading the above, so I'm dense, what can I say. it really depends what kind of equipment you are using with a DS5800 up to 30+ miles, with a Ether-Ant 2.4Ghz customer unit up to around 8 to 10 miles put a few pine trees in the mix and more like 4 or 5 miles. Use a Ether-ant LR it has a built in amp up to 18 miles LOS. Buildings and trees reduce range I have a couple customers that are only 3 miles from the tower but are non line of site, these locations require a long range unit because of obstructions that make line of site impossible we I have a few units in use that are only 9db they are close to tower with good line of site. It does make it interesting because every install in different and requires different equipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
