Re: [AFMUG] PTP600 / 650 Power supply - Are they compatible?
Gino, We don't recommend interchanging these power injectors between the version used with the PTP 650 and the version used with the PTP 600. Pinout and voltage level -wise they are the same. However, there are two key differences: 1. PTP 650 AC+DC Power Injector can source more power (~70W) to allow an 802.3at PoE output on the PTP 650 AUX port. 2. The PTP 650 AC+DC power injector doesn't have the pushbutton switch used to put the PTP 600 into recovery mode. Instead the PTP 650 uses a power cycle sequence to place the radio into recovery mode.

[AFMUG] aligning bigger antennas on short paths
Weve never gone above 2' we finished installing our 11ghz link yesterday and had the antennas rough aligned, one side is 3' one side is 4'. I expected the tighter patterns would make it harder to find the initial link but they actually linked up right off the bat and it was right on the projected power levels. This is only 10 miles, so we have visual on the path. We did a little rough alignment yesterday, and will do the fine alignment today. when we we roughing it there was a good amount of travel on the antenna (4') side we were on and only a couple db change. do larger antennas on such a short path give you a little more leniency in alignment or something? we will do full horizontal and vertical panning today to make sure we arent in side lobes, just curious is there is more slop in this scenario. -- All parts should go together without forcing.

Re: [AFMUG] aligning bigger antennas on short paths
Nope, a 4 ft dish in 11 GHz should be pretty narrow, a few degrees and you should be into a deep, deep null. Take a look at the beamwidth or pattern for your antenna. It should be similar to an 8 ft dish in 5.x GHz. We once used an existing 12 ft dish for an 11 GHz link and I kept having to tell the tower guy he was not going to be able to eyeball it. The beamwidth was something like 1 degree if I remember right. He ketp getting nada for signal until I made him slowly sweep the azimuth.

Re: [AFMUG] aligning bigger antennas on short paths
Yeah, it was so considerate of ATT to leave that dish up there when they sold off the site, only needed to be re-aimed about 2 degrees to go where we wanted. And they built a platform to stand on while aiming it, that was awfully nice of them. And they left the flexible waveguide down to the shelter. I’d really hate to think about hanging a new 12 ft dish ourselves and running waveguide to it. And it’s an Andrew parabolic, not the old WE horns, so we don’t have to worry about water getting into the waveguide and freezing.

Re: [AFMUG] And some of you are whining about 4K
I think part of the reason for that though is wanting to get TV and movies on to the same standards. while TV always used horizontal lines before, digital cinema has used vertical lines since the beginning... the first digital theatres were 2k, which was 2048x1080 (opposed to 1080i/p TV being 1920x1080...) and the 4k (and 8k) standard was already being used in high end projectors and cameras long before any 4k TVs were being sold... so at least there is that. As far as there being content shot in 4k... isn't pretty much every movie these days? besides, pretty much anything shot on decent film should be beyond 1080p anyway...

Take a look at the beamwidth or pattern for your antenna. It should be similar to an 8 ft dish in 5.x GHz. We once used an existing 12 ft dish for an 11 GHz link and I kept having to tell the tower guy he was not going to be able to eyeball it.

I expected the tighter patterns would make it harder to find the initial link but they actually linked up right off the bat and it was right on the projected power levels. This is only 10 miles, so we have visual on the path. We did a little rough alignment yesterday, and will do the fine alignment today. when we we roughing it there was a good amount of travel on the antenna (4') side we were on and only a couple db change. do larger antennas on such a short path give you a little more leniency in alignment or something? we will do full horizontal and vertical panning today to make sure we arent in side lobes, just curious is there is more slop in this scenario. -- All parts should go together without forcing.

Most of us here in SLC wait for facts before we riot. Being from SLC I can say your mostly fine depending on where the station is.

Re: [AFMUG] And some of you are whining about 4K
There’s some kind of disconnect when something that needs 25 Mbps per device is being marketed as mainstream, and the FCC just decided that 10x1 is the minimum Internet speed for CAF funding. Unless we’re finally willing to admit that 4K televisions and 25M live streaming are a luxury and you need to either live in a major metro area with fiber or cable, or spend a lot for your Internet connection, or be satisfied with mere FHD instead of UHD. It’s great to drive bandwidth consumption, as long as people don’t expect it for free or minimal premium. It’s kind of a perception thing. UHD looks maybe 2 or 3 times as good as SD, but uses 15 times the bandwidth. So people expect to pay a premium based on how good it looks, not how much bandwidth it consumes, in fact they don’t even want to pay that because they’re used to supersizing their fries and drink for an extra buck. (note that fries and drinks have huge markups) It will make a little more sense when physical media exist that can hold a 4K movie. Doesn’t it seem strange that Netflix is just giddy that you have to live stream 4K because it is so huge it won’t fit on a disc? It would sure be nice if people could adjust their expectations, and applications come out, so that you watch broadcast 4K either via cable or satellite, or else you download it overnight and watch it the next day. Rather than click and live stream the on-demand content now. I think this is a big opportunity for companies like DISH who control content and a set top box, to download content to the DVR at less than live stream speed overnight, for viewing the next day, it would give them an advantage over Netflix which can’t sell you anything that doesn’t fit through your pipe. I mean come on, people, if you really have to watch a movie right now, would it kill you to watch it in 1080p? - no waiting - amazing quality - cheap - available everywhere pick 3.

You talking about downtown, or by the fairgrounds? Is there still that KOA campground down the road from the fairgrounds? That seemed a bit shady.

Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector
I asked KP for an explanation of the differences between them a few months ago. He said he'd contact his engineer but I never heard back. When you look at the antenna profile, at first glance it looks like the KP antenna is better. But once you look closer, it looks like each polarity is just more offset from the other compared to the cambium, which makes the overlapped profile look better.

Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector
You’re talking about the “Gen II”, right? That’s the 450 compatible one. I have only compared spec sheets. Looks like 90 degrees is at 3 dB points, while Cambium is more like 5-6 dB. No null fill. 2 degrees downtilt. No bracket to hold AP papoose style. Otherwise similar specwise. KPP also lists a 120 degree sector, the spec sheet is a disaster though. Numbers say 2.4 GHz, pattern is ugly, F/B ratio is bad, not sure if it’s bad editing or what. The numbers and patterns on the 90 look good though, except for no null fill, and make sure tower guy knows there is already 2 degrees downtilt, it’s a pretty narrow vertical beam so you don’t want to double up on downtilt. I have only used the Cambium sector, other than the N connectors are in a mildly annoying location, I like them. Neither antenna is cheap.

Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector
The -3 vs -6 is exactly what I was refering to. When you look closely at the antenna pattern of the KP antenna, it just looks like they pushed each polarity farther away from each other in relation to the cambium antenna. This makes the lobes come out a bit farther and spec out as -3 instead of -6. If you look at each polarity individually, they are more like the -6 cambium sector. This is why I feel like in the real world, there is no advantage. I am no RF engineer though, so this is just what I could determine by looking at the patterns overlapped.

Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector
I see what you’re talking about. It’s not dramatic, but I would think the best thing would be for the two polarizations to have almost identical patterns. Not sure what to make of the gain vs freq graph which shows more like 15 dBi rather than 16.5 dBi. I think we all suspect that with most antennas, the specs are more “typical” than guaranteed, except for certain high end brands. That might be the deciding difference, unless someone has actual side-by-side field results, I believe the Cambium antennas are per spec. Not saying the KPP ones aren’t. But like people have said about the 900 sectors, you probably lose a dB or two compared to MTI or Til-tek. That said, the last 900 sector I bought was a KPP, it is half the size of the other monsters. But in this case, the Cambium sector with the bracket to hold the 450 AP probably wins out in the mechanical department.

It’s not dramatic, but I would think the best thing would be for the two polarizations to have almost identical patterns. Not sure what to make of the gain vs freq graph which shows more like 15 dBi rather than 16.5 dBi. I think we all suspect that with most antennas, the specs are more “typical” than guaranteed, except for certain high end brands. That might be the deciding difference, unless someone has actual side-by-side field results, I believe the Cambium antennas are per spec. Not saying the KPP ones aren’t. But like people have said about the 900 sectors, you probably lose a dB or two compared to MTI or Til-tek. That said, the last 900 sector I bought was a KPP, it is half the size of the other monsters.

Re: [AFMUG] Cambium Tools
Tushar, we bought the Wireless manager just to display our map of infrastructure on a 50 screen in the lobby. Cool!

Re: [AFMUG] PTP500 does 2mb/s
Vector error is basically signal to noise ratio, so yes 28 is good and 1.5 is really bad. I would still use the diagnostic plotter to look at vector error over time. It won’t tell you WHY it gets bad, but seeing WHEN it gets bad might help track it down. Or use MRTG/Cacti/etc. to plot the following OIDs: vector error: 1.3.6.1.4.1.17713.5.12.2.0 modulation: 1.3.6.1.4.1.17713.5.12.8.0 Modulation will be a number from 1-15 if I remember right, where 15 is the highest like 64QAM3/4 or whatever and 1 is BPSK.

The results are stored in an histogram and expressed in dB and presented as: max, mean, min and latest. The max, min and latest are true instantaneous measurements; the mean is the mean of a set of one second means.

Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector
Nothing against KP, I like their stuff. But AP mount, null fill, very consistent pattern wins in my book. I agree, the KP 900 sector has good gain for its size. F/B is not so great, but it's better than the wind load you'd get from a cluster of 4' Til-Tek's, which we've done and took down, because.. no. And no more surfboards, LMG/Antel all the way. That's yet another antenna with null fill and has an excellent pattern. On 12/12/2014 4:12 PM, Ken Hohhof via Af wrote: I see what you’re talking about. It’s not dramatic, but I would think the best thing would be for the two polarizations to have almost identical patterns. Not sure what to make of the gain vs freq graph which shows more like 15 dBi rather than 16.5 dBi. I think we all suspect that with most antennas, the specs are more “typical” than guaranteed, except for certain high end brands. That might be the deciding difference, unless someone has actual side-by-side field results, I believe the Cambium antennas are per spec. Not saying the KPP ones aren’t. But like people have said about the 900 sectors, you probably lose a dB or two compared to MTI or Til-tek. That said, the last 900 sector I bought was a KPP, it is half the size of the other monsters. But in this case, the Cambium sector with the bracket to hold the 450 AP probably wins out in the mechanical department. *From:* Kade Sullivan via Af mailto:af@afmug.com *Sent:* Friday, December 12, 2014 3:58 PM *To:* af@afmug.com mailto:af@afmug.com *Subject:* Re: [AFMUG] 90 Degree 3.6GHZ Sector The -3 vs -6 is exactly what I was refering to. When you look closely at the antenna pattern of the KP antenna, it just looks like they pushed each polarity farther away from each other in relation to the cambium antenna. This makes the lobes come out a bit farther and spec out as -3 instead of -6. If you look at each polarity individually, they are more like the -6 cambium sector. This is why I feel like in the real world, there is no advantage. I am no RF engineer though, so this is just what I could determine by looking at the patterns overlapped.

Looks like 90 degrees is at 3 dB points, while Cambium is more like 5-6 dB. No null fill. 2 degrees downtilt. No bracket to hold AP papoose style. Otherwise similar specwise. KPP also lists a 120 degree sector, the spec sheet is a disaster though. Numbers say 2.4 GHz, pattern is ugly, F/B ratio is bad, not sure if it’s bad editing or what. The numbers and patterns on the 90 look good though, except for no null fill, and make sure tower guy knows there is already 2 degrees downtilt, it’s a pretty narrow vertical beam so you don’t want to double up on downtilt. I have only used the Cambium sector, other than the N connectors are in a mildly annoying location, I like them.

Re: [AFMUG] PTP500 does 2mb/s
I don’t know, I haven’t experienced that problem. I guess start with whatever’s easiest. I should ask, is this 5.4 or 5.7? I’m not sure it would match the symptoms, but are you taking any DFS hits? If you use the Diagnostic Plotter to look at active channel history, do you see it switching channels? Also I’m confused because you have spikes where the vector error goes to zilch, but most of the time it is good. Also in your first set of screenshots, the current modulation was 64QAM. So are you seeing 2 Mbps all the time, or just during these “events”? If you are seeing 2 Mbps all the time, that seems strange.
