Re: [WISPA] Tower mounting

2014-12-17 Thread Vince West
I will also agree that the M-TOW-P-36 http://wbmfg.com/products.cfm?PID=73,
while a bit expensive, is your cheapest solution for this. On a three leg
tower, we mount two sectors to one M-TOW. For example, I have one site
where we deployed 4 5Ghz ePMP sectors. We use a right angle to make sure
the sectors have the proper spacing. Mounting the M-TOW on the two legs is
a bit more challenging and we use headings to point the north and south
sectors. Typically I will put the north and east sector on one mount and
the south and west sector on the other mount. You can switch this up a bit,
north and west etc.

The price per mount is less than the ones you listed, and you can easily
put two antennas on one mount. I even use these mounts to do back-to-back
BHs using UBNT or ARC dishes. We used to use the 2' mounts (M-TOW-P
http://wbmfg.com/products.cfm?PID=34), but we have more flexibility with
3' mounts.

We use a lot of the M-TOW mounts because they are perfect for the equipment
we use. They also meet our requirements to mount equipment using
appurtenances as opposed to mounting directly to the tower, which most
tower companies from upon.

 With Josh  Sean on this one. They have a 3 foot long mount to accommodate
 the longer panels, plus with the space the standoff provides will give you
 plenty of room to rotate the Antennas to the proper azimuth, so having 2
 mounts on a single leg is no big deal. I wish WBM offered these from the
 get go, we have fixed a lot of redneck stuff with their mounts

 Most of the time we have been using 120 sectors, but we are planning some
 new deployments with 90 degree sectors instead.  Since most of the towers
 we are on had three legs it made 120 degree mounting pretty simple - one
 antenna per leg.  What sort of mounting are people using for 4 sectors on
 these same towers.  I am thinking something like the WiMAX tower mounts at
 Site1Pro might be the right solution:

 But as I know, this list is full of knowledge and somebody likely has a
 great answer waiting for us.  Thanks!

Re: [WISPA] Fw: Antenna Array Suggestions

2014-01-06 Thread Vince West
 of Canopy 2.4 radios sitting around, I have tons of 5.7  900
 collecting dust in the shop.

 The other antenna on this picture is a UBNT M900 AP, and with 5 subs on it
 and is not working as expected, I will likely yank it down and switch
 those
 few customers back to 2.4. The Canopy BH is a backup link to another tower
 down river. We are using a Nano Bridge M5 as the main feed for this tower
 and it has way more bandwidth capability than the tower is currently
 putting
 out.

 thanks

[WISPA] Trango 900 problems

2013-06-26 Thread Vince West
What is the [RF Tx Retry at AP]  [RF Tx Retry Maxed Out at AP]?? The SU
could be hitting the AP just fine, but if the AP isn't hitting the SU that
would cause some issues.

For those customers that you are having issues with, try doing su linktest
and seeing what their error rate is.

Also things to consider are noise floor and any potential interference. Are
these customers all located in the same area
