2019-06-21 Thread Mark Radabaugh
That would work fine, though I’m always reluctant to put fusing at the top of a tower. It’s not going to protect much of anything and you are going to be climbing to replace it, probably in shitty weather. The point of fusing is to protect the wiring from melting and creating fires. It’s not

We use this for splitting out DC power to various devices at some sites: http://store.packetflux.com/sitemonitor-5-channel-power-distribution-unit/ DC up the tower goes into the PDU.. 1 channel goes to the EdgePoint, other channels go to radios that support/need direct DC 48V (Baicells, etc). On

Right, the problem with rackmount IMO is depth.  You need a deeper cabinet and for some reason that drives cost up.  Does the Packetflux PDU accept -48 now? Used to be it didn't and that was a show stopper for me.  Actually I ended up connecting the single relay on the Site Monitor to the reset

We use a number of the Altech CBI485A power supplies for this application - 48VDC 5A UPS for external batteries. It has the same monitoring drawback as the other solutions - just dry contacts so we end up adding packetflux gear to monitor it. It works fine but a true rectifier shelf is a far

At the top of the tower/roof could I use a simple auto fuse box and fuses like this to split out 48v 5A to various radios? And maybe use a 2A fuse for each radio that is running 1.5A and a 5A fuse for say the UBNT EP-S16 unit at less than 5A draw? https://www.amazon.com/EtoparsTM-Vehicle-Circuit

For this we use a PacketFlux SiteMonitor. The contacts on the Traco BCM/BCMU connect to the "switch" input on the SiteMonitor to let us know when the site loses AC power. When we require switched loads, we add a PacketFlux 5Channel PDU which can be monitored/controlled remotely via the SiteMonito

I prefer to use one shunt in the return/ground/common battery connection. That way you can monitor charge and discharge with only one shunt and a single ended non isolated connection. If you have isolated telemetry inputs, you can do the same thing on the positive side. And if you want to put

When you do a setup with the industrial Meanwell, Traco, etc stuff one thing to keep in mind is monitoring.  With that class of equipment you'll have dry contacts and you'll need something to monitor those for alarms.  You'll probably want a current shunt and then either a set of Packetflux mod

A whole bunch of new microwave dishes on the brand new tower at CME as well. I'd say within the last 90 days, probably less than 60 days. That said, they like to send the same data over many paths. First to receive wins. The shortwave may be the most-preferred, falling back to microwave, then
