I've been using CTM2's for nearly a decade, but they do not support 450m.
CMM5 is waaay to expensive for what it does and is clunky. I've been
looking at Packetflux's RackInjector's.
I'm not familiar with PacketFlux products and need clarity on something.
See attached. I need to power (3) 450m AP'
Everything looks fine, other than we don't currently have any supplies big
enough for the Medusa, so you'll (currently) need to come up with something
yourself.
Many of our customers are just using their -48VDC battery supply. Or
getting a bulk 48VDC supply.

Ok Great. Will do.
Thanks Forest!

I have the new 3.65 medusa on my mind plus I'm a bit tired.
The 48V 2.5A power supplies will run 2 non 3.65 medusa radios each. If you
jumper the boards so 2 radios run off of each power supply you'll be fine
(the AF24 is a similar quantity of power).
But, a bulk supply is probably a better i
Medusa or an
AF11, but it would be nice on a Nanostation.

Forrest,
I have learned that specifically the 3.6Ghz Medusa doesnt do POE at
all. It only accepts direct dc hookup.
Which leads me to this question since it also needs sync and requires
cmm5 can I still use the packetflux rack injector unit
to provide the sync needed since it is the same as th
Forrest,
Did you check his screenshot? Doesn't he need a gps antenna, and what's the
syncbox JR for?

yes, remember what I said about being tired?
syncbox Jr basic edition is the gps receiver / antenna, and yes that's
needed too.

yep, it should work, don't have a 3.65 medusa to test.
The shipping firmware in the rackinjector turns off sync if you turn off
power. I need to find out if the Medusa is ok with getting power on that
port even though it v won't use it. Long term I'll update the firmware in
the rackinjector to
feedtube.

Sounds like a current or heat issue to draw power from any device.
I know a thread a while back where chuck and others discussed this on
types of wire as well.
I am on the fence about running AC up the tower or DC. The flaws in DC
are oxidation and current draw. Where AC is

Keep in mind the power issue is only related to the PMP450M 3.65 not
the 5Ghz one.

I like to size power supplies around 2x actual radio current draw, to allow for
inrush current when everything gets powered up at once.
