The only reason we got this is to properly sync our Medusa APs from the base of the tower, and maintain a clean gigabit ethernet link. If Forrest had a product that did the same thing, we would be all over it. Literally every other piece of GPS sync hardware we use is from PacketFlux.

You could also buy all the parts to do the same thing with PacketFlux gear for a whole lot less than $800... I don't think the actual cost of building the hardware has much to do with the price of a CMM

    Are you looking at a prototype or a finished product? Link?

        No doubt, but for $800, I would expect something a bit more
        um.. rugged. I can build this for about $100.

                $700-900 for a $35 Raspberry Pi controller, a DC-DC
                regulator, and a metal box?
                Looks like OpenWRT-type Linux distro with LuCI web
                interface, and a module to control the CMM5.

                Seems a bit steep, no?


                peace
