I’ve done it (on the ground) with terminal blocks too. The only issue with that was one bad radio with a short trips the breaker on the whole system. I wouldn’t do it again without separate breakers/fuses for each device.

Does anyone make something similar for DC Distribution? Run a single power cable up a tower and DC to multiple radios? I'm thinking like 3 or 4 licensed radios each needing 2 wire DC input and 10G fiber. Rather than running individual power wires for each one. I've used a UBNT Edgepoint S16, taking the 56v POE Output ports, and running them through the MCT GIGE-POE to extract 2wire power to run to the radio. But that's extra pieces needing a place to be mounted. Would the Site Monitor 5 channel PDU fit the bill? IT says 3A per channel, and 8A total. So in theory that should be able to provide about 140w per radio. Could put it in some sort of NEMA with a DIN mount. The Sitemonitor base is hardened, would the PDU be as well? Are there other options? -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com <mailto:AF@af.afmug.com> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
