running fiber to the radios, so we're debating on POE vs. DC up the
tower for powering them. We have been told by the tower owner that we
need to adhere to R56 for lightning protection.
Our initial thought was that we woul
Do you already have the fiber? If not, you should consider a hybrid cable
that has a few strands of fiber and 2-conductor 12/14AWG for powering the
radios? Best-Tronics is a good vendor for this cable.

No, I don't have the fiber yet. That's a great suggestion. Thanks!

Not yet...
What form factor would be preferred?
I could fit it in my regular surge suppressor case if that is not too small.

You don't have an outdoor version, do you?

I would second the hybrid fiber. Worked great for us and Best-Tronics is
great. A little longer lead time but good to work with. For about the same

had a lot less issues using DC surge arrestors than POE.

I would have to use a different case.
