Wireless in a truck

2012-11-02 Thread nphay
We are looking into using a cell connected router to provide wireless
inside a truck.  Right now we are trying to figure out how to power all of
it with a UPS, etc that can survive freezing temps and very hot temps that
the inside of the truck will be subjected to.

I know some of you have provided wireless inside buses for students and
other applications.

Any thoughts on how to handle the varied environment?

Thanks,

Seems to me the power supply in the truck is your best bet.  The router
probably runs on DC at relatively low power compared to something like a
car stereo, and the truck's battery would make as good an all-weather UPS
as anything I can think of.  The key questions are, what are the power
requirements of your router, and how long might it need to run without
starting the truck?

See you at Educause…(Denver, CO)

2012-11-02 Thread Hanset, Philippe C
The Wireless-LAN session is on Wednesday Nov 7, from 10:30 till 11:20 Mountain 
Time, room 402.

Topics that come to mind:

-802.11AC Why wait? Why jump?
-How to empower users with Bonjour needs?
 (or consequences for not doing it)
-Is Wireless management slowly moving to the switch? What does it mean for us?
 (Will it all work with openflow seamlessly?)

Any other topic you want us to discuss?

Thanks,

Have a good Weekend,
