There is a company around here, Western Tower, that sells that same design

I'm not sure if I get the idea.  Can you swing the top of the mast down to the 
ground?

  Let's take 2018 for a spin!

 




  Access a tall antenna from the ground!

Our new M-TOW-SPIN allows a short tower and a tall mast, but best of 
all the mast pivots on a tower top mount to allow you to access 
everything from the ground.


Fits 25G and 45G style towers.

 



This is a prototype, the above photos are courtesy of Craig House. 
This product was his idea and he is doing the beta testing. So don't 
expect our distributors to have stock, or to find it on our website 
yet.  But it will be very soon and we can take orders now if you want 
to give it a try. Cost will be similar to that of another section of 
tower... but a section of tower you can lower to the ground.


 



The best surge protectors just keep getting better...  Note, we are at 
Rev G on this rack mount version. That means there have been Rev 
A,B,C,D, E, D1, F, F2,F3 versions before this.  Each one better than 
the previous.


Our Return Loss (RL) and Near End Cross Talk (NEXT) has never been 
better.  RL is a big deal for GigE circuits as each pair has both 
transmit and receive.  You do not want your own TX signal bouncing 
back into the receiver on the same pair. (That problem does not exist 
on 100 Mbps Ethernet circuits.)  Come to *AnimalFarm at WispAmerica 
* 
to learn more.


Big Mamma Ice Sheld (M-TOW-ICE-MESH) Second round of destructive testing.
We are about to get this thing released.  Sorry about the delay 
Lewis.  Will take about 500 lbs easy before deforming.


*Check out the video of the first round of destructive testing from 
last summer.
