Yes, ask the coordinator if they can change it to match the radios you have, 
although I can't tell from the part number if those radios support 80 MHz 
channel.

If the coordinated frequency cannot be changed you are best off obtaining 
radios with part numbers containing Ch1W6.  The freq. range for this sub-band 
is 10695-10955MHz / 11185-11485MHz. 

For Cambium, the two common 11 GHz sub-bands are Ch1W6 (lower part of band) and 
7W13 (upper part of the band).  These two sub-bands cover the entire 11 GHz 
band.  It appears Ceragon sub-band numbering is the same.

These radios have diplexers (essentially filters) installed which limit them to 
operate in various sub-sections of the 11 GHz band.  Assuming these sub-band 
numbers correspond to Cambium's, The 7W13 in the part number corresponds to 
10915-11207MHz / 11425-11725MHz which covers the upper part of the band.  6W12 
corresponds to 10895-11205MHz  / 11385-11705MHz which is only 20 MHz lower and 
mostly overlaps with 7W13.  These sub-bands are nearly identical. 

What is the frequency and channel width on your coordination?

Re: [AFMUG] Best Radios (Licensed) for 2 gig

2017-10-23 Thread John Seaman
Hi Mitch, Cambium 820c will do this, provided you can coordinate the 
frequenciesrequired.  As others suggested, you probably want to go with lower 6 
GHz with 60 MHz channels.  This will need to be a 4+0 configuration for 2 gig, 
but you can start off with a 2+0 (dual core radio) for your 1 gig for starters. 
 In the end, you will have two 2+0 systems (XPIC most likely) on the same 
antenna, which is nice for redundancy purposes.  If you want us to take a look 
at the path hit me up off-list john.sea...@cambiumnetworks.com.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Alternate Trango Apex Plus power supply?

Wait, wait... John? Cambium? What?

When our ApexPlus power supplies have let the magic capacitor juice out in the 
past (because of the HP ODUs running them at 100% all the time), I've used Mean 
Well MDR-100-48's. They're like $30. SDRs work fine too, but $20 is $20.

Note that you cannot mix Apex and ApexPlus POE injectors. It's not the same 
pinout.

If it's AC to DC I like Meanwell SDR.  I think you only need 50 watts or so for 
a Trango, so this one has a large margin.  Put a DIN rail in your rack and you 
can put like 12 or 14 of these in a row.

Re: [AFMUG] Highest capacity 6 GHz system

2016-10-24 Thread John Seaman
Hi Ken, the Lynx and Orion are largely identical.  The biggest difference
between the two is that the Orion supports XPIC where as the Lynx does not.
  Keep in mind that either model can be set up for 2+0, but only with the
Orion can both radios operate on the same channel.  Other than that, the
Orion does offer higher TX power (for certain frequencies) compared to the
Lynx.  However with 6 GHz, the TX frequency for Lynx and Orion are the
same.  Orion also features SynchE/1588 functionality which is not found on
the Lynx.  Both models now support buffer size up to 8 MB.

Re: [AFMUG] Trango StrataPro Xi

2016-06-09 Thread John Seaman
Hello and thanks for the questions.  The StrataPro does have one 2.5 Gbps
SFP cage (along with 3 other GigE ports), but so far we have not qualified
a suitable 2.5 Gbps SFP.  That is something we are working on.
The Xi model is capable of 2 Gbps FDD (4 Gbps aggregate) so that currently
requires using 2 of the ports to achieve.  Going to 4 Gbps FDD requires two
pairs of radios, in MIMO configuration so you would be using 2 ports on
each of the radios.

Regarding keys, the Si base model allows 500 Mbps FDX, and there is a key
that takes it up to 1 Gbps.  The Xi model comes with 1 Gbps FDD capability,
with a key that opens it up to the max 2+ Gbps.  Yes, AES-256 is an
optional key.  These are the only keys involved with this product.

Given the capacity of 1 Gbps and 2 Gpbs on these products, 1 MB packet
buffer should be more than sufficient since they can transmit at Ethernet
line rate.

Let me know if any other questions, or feel free to hit me off list.

Re: [AFMUG] Trango stratalink 24 sale

2015-10-18 Thread John Seaman
As usual, Daniel is correct.  The best user tool we have for predicting
SL24 link performance is our Pathcheck App
https://www.trangosys.com/pathcheck
Sorry Android users, this is only available for IOS devices at the moment.
For even more accurate results we can run your link through Pathloss.
