Re: [AFMUG] Gigabit Ethernet on Cambium 450i only running 100Mbps
Not throwing any blame around here. Just trying to help. Like I said, I'm not real worried about GigE on the regular 450 APs... yet. Would be nice to find a solution to this problem so we can eventually run gigabit when the 5GHz finally gets approved for 30MHz channel bandwidth. And of course Cambium get a stable official build done with 30MHz support. Probably not too far off from that at this point though, maybe by the end of the year. Then there's the 450i. And the 450m down the road. The 450i can take 2-pair or 4-pair power. If you're using the aux port for POE output to another radio, then you really need to power it on 4 pairs. The 450m's 60 (or was it 70?) watts will no doubt demand all four pairs. And both need 56VDC. 24/29.5 is fading away.. finally. And I'm guessing Cambium will make the regular 450 AP fade away too. We haven't deployed any 450i. No need yet. Probably just end up jumping to the 450m where we need the capacity. Anyway, my point is, 4-pair power plus the sync pulse + GigE-APC/SS-HV I foresee being bad for 10/100 as well as gigabit. Cambium set it up real nice on the 450i though. It'll take either polarity on each pair. So I suppose you could set it up to put positive on 4/5 & 7/8, negative on 1/2 & 3/6, then maybe 10/100 would still work at least. If you and Forrest want to collaborate on it or something, that would be cool. If you come up with a new GigE-APC prototype to resolve this, I'd be more than willing to give you real world results. Then there will be 1588v2 timing. Which is all fine and good. But I won't be ripping out sync-over-power when this becomes available. But everything is becoming "I wants my netflicks, now!" So I really want every AP having at least two full-time timing sources going forward if possible.

Re: [AFMUG] Gigabit Ethernet on Cambium 450i only running 100Mbps
The one case where we had a customer with the problem try things, they removed the protection from pin 7 and it started behaving itself for a while, but the problem came back. No, everything we make is HV now. We stopped making HV quite some time ago. So if it is clamping spikes on pin 7 it has to be in the 80 volt range. Might have come interaction with cable induction. Yes, by all means I will test with anything anyone sends me. And I can up the voltages.

Re: [AFMUG] Gigabit Ethernet on Cambium 450i only running 100Mbps
So, what do you think? Based on my test, it's definitely the sync pulse disrupting the GigE data, at least on the 7/8 pair I'm guessing. Is it possible that we have HV marked modules that are in fact not HV? I assume you have two different assembly lines for regular and HV? Or do you just do batches of one or the other? Either one would probably rule that out. It would really suck to have to pull out the SS's to get GigE on the 450 when we finally get 30MHz channel support. No surge suppression at all scares me. 20MHz channel width really doesn't need gigabit which is why I've never bothered with it. Maybe Forrest would be willing to send you one of his new PowerInjector+Sync modules and a SyncPipe for debugging? And with the 450i taking power on all four pairs, I could see the sync pulse causing the SS to clamp on the 10/100 data pairs, too. Meaning 100Mbps won't work either. Just speculation, but it seems logical. What else could you do other than let say 90 volts though instead of, what is it on the HV now, 65 or 70 volts? Or maybe some slightly slower reacting diodes? But I guess either case opens up the potential (pardon the pun) for damage.

I will test with anyone that wants to loan me gear. I really don't want to keep buying every possible combination. The dedicated ethernet test equipment never shows a problem.

I sell probably 1000 of these a month. I have heard a similar story a couple of times. Did my own lab replication and did not find anything wrong. It always has to do with Cambium. No idea yet what may be happening. We have a lot of these deployed. Really only needing 1000base on our PTP450i units when we use wider channels. Have you tested with a Mikrotik CRS? I fail to get 1000base from Mikrotik CRS to CRS with them as well. I am currently testing an ePMP powered off a Netonix switch with 65’ of cable to the GigE-APC surge suppressor and then 165’ to the AP. Rock solid at Gige. Everything looks good. Have you tried to cut and isolate. Say with a Cambium power supply and a laptop. Start at the AP and work your way back adding components until you find what is causing it to break? I know that now and then the pins in the RJ45s in the surge suppressors and other components can get a bit contaminated and some alcohol and a q tip will fix the problem. Went back today. I have Mikrotik CRS > 52 volts > PacketFlux Gige SyncInjector > GigEAPC HV Rev A.1 > 100 foot STP > PMP450i. Will not do 1000base. Removed the GigEAPC HV and replaced with a Monoprice RJ-45 coupler. Linked and stayed up at 1gbps. Put the GigeAPC back in.

Also, have Mikrotik CRS125-24G-1S -> thirty foot of unshielded cat-5e -> GigEAPC-HV -> Mikrotik CRS125-24G-1S It will only link at 100M also but if I remove the GigEAPC and replace with monoprice RJ45 coupler it links and stays at 1Gbps.

Re: [AFMUG] Gigabit Ethernet on Cambium 450i only running 100Mbps
I have several sites with GigE-APC-HV's and GigE-POE-APC's that run GigE with no issues, other than them clamping during thunderstorms and cause some CRC errors which is perfectly acceptable. 450's, licensed radios. All kinds of stuff. No 450i APs though. Well, most of the 450s I just leave at the default Auto 100F/100H/10F/10H since there's no real reason for gigabit until we get 30MHz channel support. But I have tested it with Forrest's new GigE PowerInjector+Sync injectors and it does work fine. The only thing I can think of is to try turning off the sync pulse on the SyncInjector and see what you get. Per port via software, or just unplug the SyncPipe if you're on site.

In that event the solution is to give the current a lower impedance path that isn’t through your cable or at least only on the shield of your cable. I use shielded patch panels before my surge modules and that creates a drain for the shield that has lower impedance (generally) then other paths. Ideally you would run a ground cable up your tower for all of your equipment that is large enough wire to be the best path to ground. Remember that this isn’t just about shorting grounds to the earth ground but you also have ground currents and static electricity created by wind etc that causes stray electricity that can interfere with your systems.
