Well, you could use two radios in SISO mode on each end... but then you'd
have to deal with having separate ethernet ports and mounting the second

If you are worried about the mast twisting in the unistrut clamps, I
sometimes get a self tapping screw and put it through the clamp and pipe
for extra security.

if you are using 176.5Mbps of 177mbps then the link is saturated and
latency is high because packets are being delayed due to the high usage.

  We utilize a combination of blade systems and 1U/2U servers …. Wouldn’t say 
blade systems are going away.  Basically the biggest sell point for them is 
space/power (footprint).  If space/power is at a premium (ie. 3rd party data 
center) and you need to put many servers into it then it can make sense …. In 
our case this is exactly why we continue to deploy Cisco ACS blade systems in 
particular – they work well and footprint is small.

   

  In areas where we have abundant space/power then 1U servers are preferred

  Servers for what?

   

  Blades are kind of a thing of the past, I think.  It's way easier and cheaper 
to do something like HA with ESXi.

I'm unclear on whether that's a serious suggestion.

I'll give that a whirl, thanks everyone. Backup plan will be Chuck's 
PVC/spray foam idea.

Do the unistrut conduit clamps hold the conduit tightly enough to 
mount it vertically? I thought they were intended for horizontal 
runs.

If you have to get it from the local hardware store, go there and 
see what all can work.  I'd probably look for the best tool rather 
than limit myself to that one store, though.

Anyone have any advice as to what hardware I can use to attach a 
6' section of 1.5" emt to a chimney? It's the vinyl siding 
covered type. I was thinking of just drilling it and running lags 
straight through, but a bracket of some type, possibly utilizing 
pipe clamps, would be preferred. I'll need to source it from a 
local hardware store.

Yeah I was going to mention that.  When it comes down to remodeling the 
building or buying blades, then blades are a clear winner.

Re: [AFMUG] OT NOC server choice

I prefer the dell series servers for Esxi and sans
If you only need 2 then HA can be deployed to sustain without much 
maintenance other than software.
Xenon core processors or something in the i5 or higher range lots of 
memory and HDD/Sans space is easy.

BTW, I have a bunch of 1855 blade centers sitting, quad power

around 2.0 – 2.4 ghz. 10 blades each.  I can sell you for a song!
