[AFMUG] Packetflux RackInjector Polarity
So, we have a few of these deployed now since Halloween '17 oddly enough. These sites were the trial run of these for us and they passed with flying colors. Forrest, my one (or two) request is show uptime of the unit in the web interface and of course SNMP of the power draw for each port. Now to my real question that will help me plan for more deployments. Can I run a different polarity on different cards in the same chassis? Say -48v in Pwr A and +48v in Pwr B and a "Power Injection + Canopy Sync" card set to +48v and a "Cambium Sync for 450i/450m" card set to -48v. It seems implied that will be OK on the PacketFlux website but the manual states that all of the inputs share a common return which should not work. Quote from manual... 3. For each input, wire the power source wire to the Vin terminal, and the return wire to the Rtn terminal. A terminal block is provided for this purpose. For a positive voltage source (+24V, +48V) this means that the + wire will be on Vin, and the – wire will be on Rtn. For negative voltage sources (‐48VDC), the – wire should be on Vin and the + wire should be on Rtn. But then.. 5. At least one of the power supplies needs to be positive, with a minimum of 12V. The control board will use whichever positive voltage is highest to power itself. It can't be powered from a negative power source.

We've had our share of water intrusion issues with regular 450 APs.
Cases where it was clearly a manufacturing/assembly issue, Cambium has
made it right regardless of warranty status.

Re: [AFMUG] 450m , No News is Good News?
I have had a 450M in the air for a month. 52 of 275 residential CPEs in that 90° sector have been on it the whole time. It does between 70-105M at peak times. Clients are up to 12 miles away, most around 7. It has not had any issues since it went into service, although I had to RMA the first one because it hadn't been calibrated. This is one of 11 other 5 GHz 450 sectors on this tower and it's been playing nicely with them. So far on 15.0.1 it averages roughly twice the throughput than we typically see on a 20mhz 450 channel in this sector. I've been thinking of moving more SMs over to it, even though it does spike up to 100% downlink frame utilization. But I feel I haven't really pushed it to the limit yet.

Re: [AFMUG] Cambium PMP450 AP problems?
It was not a firmware issue. I tried upgrading 3 of the APs to a full
license to see if it resolved the issue. Tried many different firmwares.
Replaced the antennas and jumpers. Put in a 450i and everything was
great. I assumed the "Lite" APs were refurbs or something. I suppose
more realistically we ordered them all at the same time so they were all
one batch.

Re: [AFMUG] Cambium 13.4
This was not a browser cache issue. The APs that had the "Registering" issue had anywhere from 9-65 SMs. Cambium support advised me to downgrade to 13.2.1 and said that it was a known issue.

Are you also sure it's not a browser cache issue? Yes, the Lites are a special build, 13.2.1.3 which Cambium hasn't made available so I've also been hesitant to update any of them.

The signal doesn't seem to matter as some of the SMs had signals as good as -67 with 29 SNR. Traffic would not pass over the SM and if they had an additional VC for voice it wouldn't ever establish.

I am glad I only upgraded a handful of APs because I'm excited for the new CoA feature. -- Matt Hopkins Network Administrator 503.687.1030 supp...@onlinenw.com <http://onlinenw.com> onlinenw.com <http://onlinenw.com>

Re: [AFMUG] 13.2(Build 35) Open Beta
I had two APs using this firmware and both of them would lock up about every 4 hours or so. They would not come back unless we physically power cycled the AP. One of the APs is a 3.65 and the other is 5.7. We finally rolled them back to 13.1.3 and the problem is gone. I would like to help as 13.2 is working fantastic for us except for this issue. Where should I send the event log to?

There will be a Build 36 put on Open Beta probably tomorrow in which we were able to fix for some of the old nagging rare and random crashes that have been seen in previous releases. Our current plan is to release next week.
