about 10Gig. Cost me $1500 each. You gotta love Linux and SuperMicro. :-)

One thing I've always wondered is why they only want to know what areas you
have customers in, not what areas you can service.

I'm thinking of trying a Ruckus home AP. I'm going to use a Mikrotik router and
then the Ruckus as AP only. At the Ruckus website it seems like I'd use the
MediaFlex 2835. When I Google shopping'ed this I don't get a single hit - Your
search - MediaFlex 2835 - did not match any products.. Does
We are the highest partner with Ruckus and have a services division that has
deployed tons of their APs in schools around the area. We can assist with
configuration and getting anyone going with this product.

There is a difference
In general, the Ruckus product line is very inexpensive for access points.
Plus, their beamforming technology allows their product to use about 1/2 the
APs as their main competitors (Cisco...). This is accomplished because they
don't use the typical omni antenna that most do. The beamforming
Yeah, beam forming seems like it's definitely the way to go.

another interesting feature, should be the possibility to NOT use
ethernet cables to build your network. In few words, there is no need to
put cables to connect the AP to the switch, only power cable.
This is interesting in places where ethernet cable cannot be used.
Obviously, power cable is

You still need power to the AP but no need to run Cat5 through a building for
new locations. This takes some engineering and additional products but not
hard at all.
Any location under 4 APs though (should be most) you don't even need the

I keep seeing inexpensive, but the proof is in the pudding.
Jeff - Could I get a quote for a dozen BG ZoneFlex 2942? Would
anything be needed in addition to the APs like a controller?

Brad,
I had one thought last night I hadn't considered before.
My unit is a 100Mbps unit, so Cat5e POE was workable. At 200Mbps, you'll
need GigE I assume. This will require all 4 pairs for data. You'd need
more cable for power. At worst you'll need two separate cables, but
it's still
Correct. I've been reading over the manuals Tom was good enough to send me.
Thanks again Tom!
These particular radios are only 50MB and the application is for a client
looking for an alternate path from their existing 45MB DS3. In this case
we're good with a 100MB cable limitation. Whenever

Just put a call into DragonWave Support to ask about AirPair IF cable length

Keep in mind that they are expecting the cable length to be short with
an outdoor modem unit. The gain may be set real low and when you
finally go ahead and put 150 LMR400 in and increase the attenuation you
may not work. Call tech support to find out for sure. It won't

Brad,
I created a .csv dump from the WISPA billing server and then geocoded the
data to create the map. If the information is wrong in the billing server
then it is wrong on the map. That is why I am encouraging everyone to check
it and send me corrections. I don't want to make changes myself
Just FYI...DragonWave Support has contacted me and is already on the case.
They promise an answer shortly. Certainly acceptable response time. Kudos
to DragonWave!
