  Mike,
 
  Now that I've read those posts of yours, I better understand your
  position.
  I was not taking reduced power into consideration.  I just had in my
  mind
  the 25watts EIRP often mentioned in FCC precentations over the years.
 
  To the best of my knowledge, the AirSpan product that I am familiar
  with, do
  not have that same limitation.
  Although I do not have that data off the top of my head, to respond
  accurately.
 
  But regardless... What we have here is not a limitation by WiMax, nor
 by
 
  3.6G, nor FCC, but a limit posed by the manufacturers and their
 designs.
 
  Doesn't anyone have any insight on why the FCC rules allow more power
  for
  wider channels?
 
  I realize that wider channels create larger internal system noise,
 which
 
  could be a reason for needing more power for wider channels.
  But that is in contradiction to 2.4Ghz rules for Smart Array
 antennas,
  that
  rewarded in highr power for those that had narrower beamwidths, and
  interfere less.
  In that spirit, I would think it would have been wise to reward those
  who
  strived to use smaller channels, apposed to penalize them for being
 more
 
  efficient.
  There obviously has to be a technical reason apposed to spectrum
  ediquete.

  Wimax APs can go much fartehr than 2-5 miles.
  You are spec'ing the distance limits of their advanced NLOS
 features.
  In LOS, they can go just as far as any other unlicened gear.
 
  I think its important to define country.  If you are talking about
  Idaho
  with houses 20 miles apart, yes, you'd be correct. 2.4Ghz and less
 is
  the
  better option.
  But where 3.6 Wimax could be exciting is small little towns. where
 3
  6Mhz
  channels would actually be enough to get decent speed, and able to
  acheive
  high modulations because its noise free.

  As much as I like seeing One Ring's name over and over I figured I
  switch the subject line to match the tread.
 
  Mike's comments below are accurate with regard to Redline's equipment.
  However, it should be noted that Redline was not able to get their gear
  certified at the full power output allowable for 3.65. It is for this
  reason that Redline does not believe its gear will work in rural
  markets. Remember, 3.65 was originally supposed to be for the rural
  market, which means either Redline went wrong somewhere or the FCC did.
  Additionally, Redline has not sought to get its indoor CPE certified for
 
  3.65 because of the power issue. That means urban operators are not able
 
  to offer self-install options that would greater speed up the rollout
  process.
 
  I believe WISPA should be working with the 3.65 radio vendors and the
  FCC to get things fixed such that there will be a greater opportunity
  for operators to provide services using 3.65.

  My point of view is based on Redline's statement of what their gear

  coupled with the documents filed with the FCC for their certification.
 
  The most I could get out of a PtP link was about 7 miles.  With a 90*
  sector, only about 5 miles.
 
  I agree that all else the same 3.65 is better than 5.x GHz, only it
  isn't
  because the power isn't there.
 
  The throughput isn't there for WiMax compliant equipment due to small
  channels.  If there were larger channel sizes, yes, it would support
  higher
  throughput applications.  According to Redline, 7.5 MHz only gets
  about 15
  megs of throughput with WiMax.
 
  Redline explicitly said 3.65 GHz isn't for rural applications due to
  the

Jeff, 

This is incorrect about Airspan joining as a vendor member.  I do however
invite their participation in WISPA and I hope that they do join.  I have
not even seen a request for membership or an invoice sent to them yet.  If
they are interested in joining, have the person in the know contact me or
go on the WISPA homepage and fill out the form at

All,


Aperto actually has a really killer product launching next month in
3.65.
I would state its a lot more stable than Redline's product due to their
secret sauce. Its the same platform that is winning carriers overseas. 

Airspan- yes absolutely can give you up to 10w EIRP legal- so your
coverage
area for fixed is literally insane- 15km NLOS @ bpsk is possible,
according 
to their calculator tool.  outdoor cpe is around 600 or so in single
piece qty-
talk to wireless guys to buy or other resellers. 

BTW, I believe they just joined Wispa as a vendor member, for those that 
sent me private mails asking them to join.

  switch the subject line to match the tread.
 
  Mike's comments below are accurate with regard to Redline's equipment.
  However, it should be noted that Redline was not able to get their gear
  certified at the full power output allowable for 3.65. It is for this
  reason that Redline does not believe its gear will work in rural
  markets. Remember, 3.65 was originally supposed to be for the rural
  market, which means either Redline went wrong somewhere or the FCC did.
  Additionally, Redline has not sought to get its indoor CPE certified for
 
  3.65 because of the power issue. That means urban operators are not able
 
  to offer self-install options that would greater speed up the rollout
  process.
 
  I believe WISPA should be working with the 3.65 radio vendors and the
  FCC to get things fixed such that there will be a greater opportunity
  for operators to provide services using 3.65.

  I agree that all else the same 3.65 is better than 5.x GHz, only it
  isn't
  because the power isn't there.
 
  The throughput isn't there for WiMax compliant equipment due to small
  channels.  If there were larger channel sizes, yes, it would support
  higher
  throughput applications.  According to Redline, 7.5 MHz only gets
  about 15
  megs of throughput with WiMax.
 
  Redline explicitly said 3.65 GHz isn't for rural applications due to
  the
  power.

I'm sorry guys. Price was not discussed. A quote will be delivered to me 
shortly. I will post cost as soon as I see it. I'm hoping early next week.

I do have a sales order for one Redline RedMAX base station with outdoor 
CPE if anyone is interested...offlist.

FYI...I'm not in any shape or form affiliated with Airspan or Redline. 
We are an Internet Service Provider serving the greater Midwestern Kansas.

Bear in mind everyone- the Airspan product is also about 2x the price of
redline on base. Its ultimately designed for zero truck roll mobility
for indoor 2km cells ( and works, Im actually sitting in Airspan's boca
facility right now, getting training on Hipermax  ) You could as well
use it for fixed NLOS. Personally I would wait on the mobility until
they release software version 8 which includes 2x2 mimo matrix A / B /
S0FDMA 1024. 

it looks pretty damn sweet. ill keep everyone posted as we have 4-5
customers rolling networks this quarter. ( we dont however sell direct,
via channel partners )  I love their new USB modems, sub 200.00 in
massive QTY

I AM ultimately excited the most about the fixed oppty, with super rad
long range fixed coverage in NLOS.

  Mike,
 
  Now that I've read those posts of yours, I better understand your
  position.
  I was not taking reduced power into consideration.  I just had in my
  mind
  the 25watts EIRP often mentioned in FCC precentations over the years.
 
  To the best of my knowledge, the AirSpan product that I am familiar
  with, do
  not have that same limitation.
  Although I do not have that data off the top of my head, to respond
  accurately.
 
  But regardless... What we have here is not a limitation by WiMax, nor by
 
  3.6G, nor FCC, but a limit posed by the manufacturers and their designs.
 
  Doesn't anyone have any insight on why the FCC rules allow more power
  for
  wider channels?
 
  I realize that wider channels create larger internal system noise, which
 
  could be a reason for needing more power for wider channels.
  But that is in contradiction to 2.4Ghz rules for Smart Array antennas,
  that
  rewarded in highr power for those that had narrower beamwidths, and
  interfere less.
  In that spirit, I would think it would have been wise to reward those
  who
  strived to use smaller channels, apposed to penalize them for being more
 
  efficient.
  There obviously has to be a technical reason apposed to spectrum
  ediquete.

  Wimax APs can go much fartehr than 2-5 miles.
  You are spec'ing the distance limits of their advanced NLOS features.
  In LOS, they can go just as far as any other unlicened gear.
 
  I think its important to define country.  If you are talking about
  Idaho
  with houses 20 miles apart, yes, you'd be correct. 2.4Ghz and less is
  the
  better option.
  But where 3.6 Wimax could be exciting is small little towns. where 3
  6Mhz
  channels would actually be enough to get decent speed, and able to
  acheive
  high modulations because its noise free.

2008-01-25 Thread Chuck McCown
Here's your chance to actually do something about it:



Universal Service at the Commission

Word on the street is that the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) will 
soon put out for comment the Joint Board's Recommendation on Long-Term USF 
Reform.  You may recall, the Joint Board submitted its recommendation to the 
FCC last November.  Highlights of the recommendation were the creation of 
three separate funds - Broadband Fund, Mobility Fund, and Provider of Last 
Resort (POLR).  The Joint Board also recommended eliminating the identical 
support rule.  The FCC is also expected to release two other items for 
comment as well - a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) on eliminating the 
identical support rule and a second NPRM on reverse auctions.

We personally use Merakmail, a Windows based product, and love it.

But before we selected it, we had worked with Surgemail that operates on 
Linux systems, which we felt was excellent.
It was a good compromise for someone wanting a commercially supported 
product, but with the benefits and costs of open source.

 As much as I like seeing One Ring's name over and over I figured I
 switch the subject line to match the tread.

 Mike's comments below are accurate with regard to Redline's equipment.
 However, it should be noted that Redline was not able to get their gear
 certified at the full power output allowable for 3.65. It is for this
 reason that Redline does not believe its gear will work in rural
 markets. Remember, 3.65 was originally supposed to be for the rural
 market, which means either Redline went wrong somewhere or the FCC did.
 Additionally, Redline has not sought to get its indoor CPE certified for

 3.65 because of the power issue. That means urban operators are not able

 to offer self-install options that would greater speed up the rollout
 process.

 I believe WISPA should be working with the 3.65 radio vendors and the
 FCC to get things fixed such that there will be a greater opportunity
 for operators to provide services using 3.65.

 My point of view is based on Redline's statement of what their gear
 
 can do
   
 coupled with the documents filed with the FCC for their certification.

 The most I could get out of a PtP link was about 7 miles.  With a 90*
 sector, only about 5 miles.

 I agree that all else the same 3.65 is better than 5.x GHz, only it
 
 isn't
   
 because the power isn't there.

 The throughput isn't there for WiMax compliant equipment due to small
 channels.  If there were larger channel sizes, yes, it would support
 
 higher
   
 throughput applications.  According to Redline, 7.5 MHz only gets
 
 about 15
   
 megs of throughput with WiMax.

 Redline explicitly said 3.65 GHz isn't for rural applications due to
 
 the
   
 power.

Don't get suckered into giving that number to anybody... If you want to
use the service forward a number you actually control, otherwise they've
got you hooked when they finally start charging.

Also, Beta + Free = not guaranteed to work so if you control the
number you can route it somewhere else.

I thought that was only for being forced to the bottom 25 MHz.

If that's the case, why can Airspan's WiMax work at full power?

 This is due to the fact that they dont have the contention protocol.

 Not sure why but the FCC dinged Redline 10DB of tx power due average
 vs peak power calculations.

 IIRC,
 
 3.65 ghz rules allow 1 watt EIRP per each mhz of bandwidth, thus a 7.5
 Mhz Radio would be allowed 7.5 Watts of EIRP, 10 Mhz radio would be 10
 Watts EIRP ...
 
 
 Redline cert does not reflect this... don't know why
 
 Airspan certification does get really close to it
 
 Mind me but 10 Watts EIRP if allot (about 40 db)
 
 Vendors should seek maybe 15 or 20 mhz channels
