Re: [AFMUG] UBNT Titanium; Narrower Sectors and GPS

2014-12-27 Thread Peter Kranz via Af
I'm impressed with the new AC 60 degree sectors so far.. You might want to
give them a try..

As far as sync goes, as others have mentioned the currently available UBNT
802.11N sync solution just does not cut it operationally, I would stamp
AVOID on it. May get better with the AC hardware based sync, but that's not
available yet, so time will tell.

[AFMUG] RM5AC-Lite speedtest results in PMP deployment

2014-12-11 Thread Peter Kranz via Af
Here is one of our RM5AC PMP access points subscriber list:

 



 

I've sorted by distance, and you can see a wide range of customer signals
associated with the access point.. Noise floor is at a -88..

Here are the speedtest results for each customer using iperf run on the
customer radio, which means the results are somewhat limited by CPU, and the
access point had active traffic, but gives a general idea of what to expect
in a real-life scenario:

 

Last IP octet / download speed / upload speed:

.193 67.4 Mbps down /  76.9 Mbps up

.100 47.4 Mbps down / 67.5 Mbps  up

.104 35.7 Mbps down / 27.4 Mbps up

.115 90.0 Mbps down / 109 Mbps up

.178 53.6 Mbps down / 59.2 Mbps up

.120  50.7 Mbps down / 73 Mbps up

.121 60.1 Mbps down / 70.9 Mbps up

.169 56.1 Mbps down / 64.1 Mbps up

.111 44.6 Mbps down / 29.7 Mbps up

.103 46.9 Mbps down / 52.9 Mbps up

 

Iperf strings used:

 

iperf -c xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx -i 5 -t 30 -l 1M -w 1024k -P 6

[AFMUG] AM-5AC21-60 and AM5AC22-45 seem decent

2014-12-10 Thread Peter Kranz via Af
PS.. We also swapped in 3 of the new 60 degree AC sector antennas
yesterday.. We saw a very nice improvement in off axis interference
rejection compared to the previous UBNT sector design. On a tower where we
couldn't previously find available channels we now were able to find options
due to the reduction in splatter from nearby access points. We are probably
going to replace all our UBNT sectors with these units over the next few
months based on the results. The only possible downside is the vertical
beamwidth of these units is very tight at 4 degrees so in many situations
you will need one setup for near customers and another for far customers.

I forgot to mention.. the added CINR information and graphing makes it much 
easier to detect customers with local interference:

If you have local interference, on those CINR heat map bars you will see 
splatter at lower CINR levels..

>> Is this the AirPrism version? You're in a high noise environment. How is it 
>> faring compared to other technology you've deployed?

 

In our test bed we have tried both the –Lite and the AirPrism versions of the 
hardware.. I was impressed with how well the –lite did in an environment with 
20+ access points in close proximity. When we swapped out for the AirPrism 
version we didn’t see massive improvements, but things were already working 
pretty well so I didn’t expect this. We’ve also been through a ton of dev. 
builds so I don’t have a good feeling for what a –Lite vs AirPrism looks like 
in an A/B test with the current release software.

 

Next steps here are to deploy several AirPrism APs with very tight spacing and 
close channels to see how well isolated they are and prove out that technology.

Re: [AFMUG] RM5AC-PMP Embargo lifted..

2014-12-10 Thread Peter Kranz via Af
>> Is it better than PMP450?

That’s a complex question.. 

 

Both radios support 256QAM

RM5AC-Lite supports more channel width options than PMP450, so supports higher 
data rates in wider channels.

RM5AC-Lite is a +27dBm transmitter, PMP450 is a +22dBm transmitter … depending 
on the antenna system you use, you may have a legal use for that larger output 
power with RM5AC-Lite

RM5AC-Lite does not currently support sync, where PMP450 does … so denser 
channel packing is possible with PMP450

RM5AC-Lite offers flexible up/down ratios, but at the cost of no sync … but the 
AirPrism variant eliminates the need for sync in certain deployments depending 
on your religion.

RM5AC-Lite has a nice price point compared to the PMP450 Access points and you 
can use a single unit as either CPE or Access Point

PMP450 Access points have a very rugged design and are fully shielded.. 
RM5AC-Lite radios have pretty limited shielding, looking forward to the 
Titanium level shielding design..

RM5AC-Lite gives me full access to busybox so I can run scripts and perform 
tcpdumps of customer traffic, PMP450 is more of a walled garden approach.

 

At the end of the day, I think the RM5AC-Lite is looking to be a pretty solid 
radio. I’ve been happy with the performance in our field trials and they seem 
to have resolved the interference immunity issues that plague the older RM5 
platform so greatly. I wouldn’t tear my PMP450 network down to replace it with 
RM5AC at this time however, as I think the PMP450 with its software defined 
radio can add other channel width options and AC modulation improvements if the 
market demands it, has shown to be pretty bullet proof in the face of 
interference, and has a fully functional sync.

 

For operators using RM5.. RM5AC is a huge improvement in speed and 
reliability.. What I REALLY want to see is the RM5AC software build that offers 
backwards compatibility to RM5 CPE’s.  Then I definitely would forklift upgrade 
all my existing RM5 access points to take advantage of the interference 
immunity improvements and slowly convert the CPEs with high usage or local 
interference problems to AC units.

Ideally you'd run this on all same-band co-located sectors at the same time. 
But yeah, my thought was close to yours. We have some towers only a mile or two

mentioned AP mode background SA. Schedule an Rx slot for background SA and give 
me a 1 or 5 minute average of my current channel. This is pretty much what 
happens with LBT now anyway.

Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Dragonwave latency issues

 

So it's a Horizon Compact?  

What is the total bandwidth, and what percentage are you using?  Have you
set up any QOS?  180 ms sounds like a lot; especially when ours are
typically less than 1 ms.

-38 is right in the game. What are the other parameters besides signal
level?

I’ve heard of this on the forums, that some units will not allow access even 
after firmware upgrade based on some type of regulatory lockdown hard coded in 
them.. I would open a ticket with UBNT for more details on what might be needed 
to unlock them.

Better ways to skin this cat to be honest.. The UBNT firewall reduces radio 
performance.

I suggest  to use SM isolation for on the same AP isolation.

and switch port protection to avoid DHCP leakage to another AP on the same VLAN.

"have at least 3 ft of vertical separation between each radio on the same
frequency"

 

Notice they are saying vertical here.. standoffs are not involved.. They are
trying to ensure that one radio in RX mode does not see the TX energy of the
other radio.. if they are sync'd these rules should not be necessary..

I'd say somewhere around $20k-$25k for the main trunk depending on span length, 
fiber count, and number of down guys required. This is using ADSS and does not 
include any make ready or engineering if the pole owners require it. There are 
quite a few factors here, so this is a rough estimate based on my experience.

450 is being made to sync with ePMP, by increasing frame duration to match.
100/430/320 will likely see no new changes.  This is what I got from an ePMP
roadshow.

I am guessing if anything, you will see Canopy (or at least 450) sync with
ePMP/320.  Seems like it would be easier to make the FPGA based radio use a
longer frame than to make the Atheros based radio use a shorter frame.  I'm
sure they already tried that.
