I was (mostly) wrong in criticizing the glands.  My tech looked at it and 
pointed out it’s the same type gland as on the 450b, and it is split (if you 
know the secret).  I’m not saying he likes them, but they’re not as bad as I 
thought.

But in re the op, this is what you get for angering the WISP gods. One does not 
simply turn away from packetflux without consequence. It's likely a squirrel 
will chew cables in the near term and a plague of ants will infest your 
enclosures

It looks like those are probably the same gland they're using on some of the 
new ePMP radios... the rubber part is spit, so you can get an RJ45 through it 
just fine.

Matt, I think I just discovered another problem – do the glands really require 
that you crimp the RJ45 plug on the cable AFTER passing it through the gland?  
Ideally a shielded plug.

 

That’s more than inconvenient, I’m going to have to order something else.

Yes, with universities having “cry closets” for our snowflake generation to use 
during finals, what would one expect.  

 

BTW, AFMUG is not a “safe space”, we do our best to “trigger” snowflakes and it 
could be best said that we are a “brave space”.

I'm sure they stopped doing that because all the sensitive engineers who are 
just out of college now can't handle being told that their ideas are bad.  

I think the last time they had an event which was similar was when the original 
god-awful EPMP 1000 dishes had just come out.  The meeting was in January, we 
had one with and tried to get the engineers to come out and assemble it on the 
tailgate in the parking lot with us.  They refused.

They used to also have groups of users voice opinions about the roadmap.

I had the same head scratching moment with the uGPS before it was called the 
cnPulse. The design is awkward to say the least. It didn't have any idiot 
lights which was difficult for the tower crew to troubleshoot. We quickly 
removed it and went to a RackIjector. Best decision ever.

We’ve always used PacketFlux sync products with Cambium radios, I have a 
somewhat unusual install involving a 450i and an omni and wanted AUX port sync 
and decided to try a CnPulse instead of ordering a Syncbox Jr. AUX port version.

 

Am I wrong, or did the Cambium team responsible for this product royally mess 
up?

 

1)  Big multilanguage instruction sheet, nowhere shows how to assemble or 
install the product.

 

2)  Instruction sheet has generic photo of Cambium radios installed at a tower 
but does not show a CnPulse.

 

3)  Bracket is stupid and for some reason they decided the cable glands should 
come out horizontally not at the bottom.

 

4)  Screws for attaching bracket (or flipping it around to mount on the 
opposite side of the pipe) require a T15 bit, because every tower climber 
carriers Torx bits.

 

5)  Label for which port is which is on the back where the bracket attaches.  
Yes there are also labels molded into the plastic housing, but the grey on grey 
is almost invisible.

 

The bracket is so stupid it’s tempting to just electrical tape the unit to the 
pipe.  Except if we pointed the cable glands down, would it still see the 
satellites?
