Depends what you mean by Vendor. Manufacturer or Reseller? As a reseller/distributor we built from the ground up a 7,500 subscriber WISP with over 130 tower sites (Mesa Networks located out of Frederick, CO). We only sell gear we have personally used and deployed, and know how it actually performs in the real world. It has been a year and a half since we sold our WISP, but we are still very active in the field deploying gear for our customers Daniel White 3-dB Networks http://www.3dbnetworks.com -Original Message- From: wireless-boun...@wispa.org [mailto:wireless-boun...@wispa.org] On Behalf Of John Valenti Sent: Friday, September 11, 2009 9:32 AM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] Vendors eating their dogfood (was Re: Which WiMAX Are You?)

Re: [WISPA] Vendors eating their dogfood (was Re: Which WiMAX Are You?)
I don't buy into that model at all! Vendors need to focus on the product they are manufacturing and work with their customers to ensure that they are manufacturing what is needed and works as expected. While at first it seems like a good idea eventually trying to be everything to everyone causes a vendor to lose focus or divert resources in ways that normally would be used on product development. When I was in the development side of the house I had key customers whom I could trust with their knowledge and insight to deploy and guide our beta products so that a released product would performed as expected. If you try doing this as a vendor/deployment then you become too mi-optic in your views.

Re: [WISPA] Vendors eating their dogfood (was Re: Which WiMAX Are You?)
Certainly, having engineers visit WISPs is important. I have appreciated visits from a couple vendors and I'm sure they have learned a lot too visiting various ISP customers. There is no replacement for this. I have seen some suggestions make it into products from multiple vendors we work with. I'm sure I wasn't alone in some of the suggestions. Unfortunately, many WISPs are not that advanced and can not adequately test that many features that some systems offer due to time or skill constraints. Most WISPs are learning as they go. I have one mature vendor who says nobody has asked those type of questions of them regarding a product I had just installed. Another vendor has some very cool features that we haven't figured out in 10 years of tinkering, but we are welcome to contact their engineers for advice in applying this to our situation. WISPs and manufacturers both run the gamut for their talents. This why lots of bad/strange stuff makes it past beta, and also why competent distributor/sellers can be of value. Actually doing WISP work could help the vendors better describe NLOS, the potential folly of customer installed CPE (zero truck roll deployment), total cost of installation issues, aesthetic issuse (think the original trango 900 gear (model 915 I think)), product integration with open source software for programming and management, support techniques, troubleshooting (ubnt bullets had a 30 sec delay for signal quality LED updates at first) , Software reliability (thinking MT's software might be better if they had to fly to site or climb a snowy mountain in the dark to fix a memory leak or ethernet driver) Then there's the issue of credibility improvement. Compared to cars again, All the big car execs fly around in gulfstreams or are chauferred. When one actualy drove a car they made to Washington DC during the bailouts it was big news. A laborer for the same company would also not drive a Porsche to work at a Ford/Chevy/Chrysler plant. On Fri, Sep 11, 2009 at 10:38:17AM -0600, 3-dB Networks wrote: Exactly...

Re: [WISPA] 2.4 Sectors (re-hash)
One thing I have noticed with our 120 degree Pac antennas is that signal strength VERY wide but don't go out very far. With customers north east, you expect to hear the north and east radios. In my recent example they were -65. On the ones close enough, I actually see the one pointed the opposite direction (labeled south for simplicity) at -85 or so. I will give it credit, though. The Trango AP (integral 60 degree antenna) seems to reach out as much as the 120 Pac in my situation.

Re: [WISPA] licensed links / distance / bandwidth
Hello Marco, In our neck of the woods 6Ghz is about all you can use at that distance. Typically 6GHz is only good for about 155-170Mbps, but I have read about some faster radios. Given 6GHz only gives you 30MHz channels I assume these faster 6GHz radios are using two 30MHz channels to reach beyond the 170Mbps ceiling. Problem you may run into at that point is finding two 6Ghz channels available in or near a market as large and noisy as DFW! If 160Mbps+ is enough bandwidth for you then I'd look at the Trango GigaLINK. So far all our licensed Trango gear has performed well.

Re: [WISPA] licensed links / distance / bandwidth
Right, but the Exalt pitch is the radios bond within themselves. No outside equipment required. Bottom line is you'll likely need to be in a pretty remote area in order to be able to find multiple 6GHz channels available between two points.

Problem you may run into at that point is finding two 6Ghz channels available in or near a market as large and noisy as DFW! If 160Mbps+ is enough bandwidth for you then I'd look at the Trango GigaLINK. So far all our licensed Trango gear has performed well.

Re: [WISPA] licensed links / distance / bandwidth
Fastest and Reliable are two conflicting variables, and question cant be accurately answered without defining expectations for atleast one of them. Big difference in distance between 99.9, 99.99 and 99.999%. As well, if you use the DUO product lines, you can actually bond up to 4 channels to increase the capacity by 4x, if channels are available and price is really no object. Any frequency other than 6Ghz, you'd have to drop down to 99.9 reliabilty, and accept slower modulations. Actually 18Ghz can do better than 11Ghz in some situations with low rain zone, because 18Ghz allows a bit wider channels and slightly higher power than 11Ghz. But 18Ghz rain loss is still significantly worse. The relevent question is whether its viable to put a half way point relay tower or not. Two 14 miles links in series drastically increases your options, compared to just having one long 28 miles link, which pretty much restricts you to 6Ghz and the 6 ft minimum dish requirement. But note that in your Greenville rain zone, w/ 6ft dish and HC190 - 29Mhz channel, the DW tool still only shows 99.91% reliabilty. This is why some have chosen to use expensive large channel Dual pol 5.8Ghz in remote environment that had the spectrum free.

Re: [WISPA] licensed links / distance / bandwidth
I've got fiber to my noc, but need a diverse path (and cheaper per meg bandwidth). Options: Build fiber to Dalllas, at 43 miles that's pretty expensive (443K). Buy/Lease Dark Fiber to Dallas (I know there is dark fiber in the trunk along I30, but I am having a hard time finding out who owns it) Set up Microwave links to Dallas. Since I own the towers between here and there, I can put very large dishes up 'cheap'. I can shorten the hop to 21 miles, but that is to a tower I lease space on, so the rent goes up. Any help with any of the above would be appreciated.

[WISPA] wind jammer communications
During our pole route scouting a route that we submitted to the electric company came back listing windjammer as being on the poles we are wanting to get on in a rural area. I looked and it seems windjammer ceased providing services in these and alot of other rural areas at the time of the digital transition. Does anyone know if it would be of any worth to see about acquiring windjammers existing infrastructure in the rural areas that they stopped using? Anyone actively doing this? I am not sure if it would be worth pursuing but seeing that the infrastructure is in place already, just a wild idea. John WISPA Wants You!

We took over the tower, scrapped what was left in the head end, and turned the cable on the poles over to a company that scrapped the cable.

Re: [WISPA] Which WiMAX Are You?
Patrick, Always great to see your list posts filled with good info. Responses inline... The E standard does enable use of diversity, but it comes at a high cost and is of limited benefit for rural operators. The truth is that diversity is designed to increase link budgets to support self-install. Can you clarify? Are you saying D Spec does not support Diversity? Or that most D vendors focusing on price chose not to include implementation of it? Even most Wifi chipsets supports diversity. My understanding was D supported diversity, because the early Pre-Wimax Aperto supported all types of Diversity. Please clarify. I'd like to add... I'd like to see more FIXED products support Diversity at the AP. Trials have shown that Polarity diversity yielded much better results than Spacial diversity for NLOS. BUT, that data does not consider spectrum availabilty and congestion. Many Metro deployments can't afford to waste a polarity, with limited spectrum and lots of noise, and forced to abandon the idea of Polarity diversity. Spacial Diversity at teh AP is an enhancement that can be used without any trade-off other than Colo fees if can't avoid paying colo per antenna. Actually in newer MIMO designs Spacial Diversity on its own showed signficant improvements in range. This could becaome even more important in 3.65 with few channels. Basically, each standard has its place, E is for people in 2.5 GHz doing self-install, like Clearwire, and we all know the low service (especially low upstream) packages offered in Clearwire's service. D is better and cheaper for rural fixed operators, and especially for public safety video type networks and definitely for voice-centric users. D is better for enterprise, where many users sit behind the CPE. E is better for roaming individual users with modest expectations. I'd agree. And I'd agree D is most appropriate for most WISPs. I think the biggest factor in deciding though isn't technology specs? People want to pick the technology with the longest life span. Many WISPs might prefer D, but are afraid D might be discontinued sooner, since the big dollar might have followed E. Just like is happening right now. I think the number one factor that will lead WISPs to pick D is acknowledgement that Vendors understand and see the long term potential and MArket for D, so we can be confident about our vendors. So far, I think the primary vendors have done a good job showing their supprot for D. The other number 1 barrier to WiMax is price, so once again many have chosen D for price reasons. But that is a fake benefit, because technically there is no reason that E product couldn't be sold just as Cheap if it came down to it. If anything, E has the potential to drop to lower prices, because of economy of scale and diverse use for WiMax chipsets. So what I'm saying is... Wimax E is killing themselves by pricing their products to high. Right now D has the potential to regain its market share because its price advantage. However, one good way for E to protect its market share is to try and influence the discontinuation of D. Thus important to support the continued development of D.
