his idea of only using the two and longer jumpers.  This leaves room for

 There's a place on the back of the radio that you could pass a hoseclamp
 through, but that doesn't seem right, especially since the ground screw
 sticks out too far for that to work well.

I think the proper way to mount them is to replace the ground lug with a
flat head screw and use a hose clamp. but don't over tighten it... I don't

Right.. It's a pretty snug fit though, and there's no chance of the 
radio escaping the bracket. Also, the top cover fits perfectly over the 
radio, protecting the RF connectors, and keeping the top of radio in place.


I wouldn't put it on a railroad bridge, but hanging off a tower, it

Re: [AFMUG] mounting AF5X to tower (non UBNT dish)

2015-07-07 Thread Vlad Sedov

The grounding screw lines up with the mount point on the Force dish.
You can actually turn the radio and thread the ground screw into the 
bracket. You can add a grounding wire in there as well.. The only 
problem is that it makes radio replacement more difficult once it's on a 
tower. There are probably ways to overcome this, but it's simple enough 
to assemble another Force dish on the ground and replace the whole thing

No, nothing against hose clamps.  The heatsink thingies on the back of the AF5X 
do seem to be shorter in the middle, and there is that loop you can put a 
hoseclamp through, although it looks like you could break it by torquing down 
the hoseclamp too agressively.

If that’s the best approach, my main problem would be the ground screw, which 
sticks out beyond the heatsink thingies.  Just let that hit the pipe and don’t 
worry that it pushes the bottom of the radio out a little?

I thought they made the screw stick out so it was 'dummy proof'.  That way
even if you don't ground it the screw makes contact with the tower/pole and
makes a ground.  I don't know why anyone wouldn't ground a $300 radio
though...

 It didn't seem to me like it would work very well to let it sit against

 hex head) and replace it with a flat head screw it should sit nice and flat.

What have people been doing to mount the AF5X radio when using a 
generic, non Ubiquiti dish?  So there is no Rocket bracket to clip it 
to?  In this case I am replacing some old Trango 5010 PTP radios and 
using the existing Radiowaves dishes.


There's a place on the back of the radio that you could pass a 
hoseclamp through, but that doesn't seem right, especially since the 
ground screw sticks out too far for that to work well.


Photos anyone?

We mounted a pair of AF5X radios to Cambium Force dishes. They
work quite well.. With a bit of effort, you could even get the
mounting screw to go into the mounting bracket.
