For these ferrite chokes do you put one on the cable anywhere? At one end? Two (one at each end)? Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” --- Winston

Did you guys change your redirect page very much? I changed it in two ways. I made the reasons and fixes line up and make sense (because removing a virus would never update their account) and added the IP address at the bottom so I can simply add their new computer/router/etc to their account

Is anyone here currently using 3 YAGI's to achieve 360 degree coverage with 3 Canopy 900 radio's? How is this working for you? Reason I am asking is because the 3 sectors are so huge that the windload on the tower is too much and looking for alternatives. Kurt Fankhauser WAVELINC P.O. Box 126

I put them on the end at the ground before the POE. Not sure if two would make any difference. On Sun, May 2, 2010 at 2:42 PM, Josh Luthman j...@imaginenetworksllc.com wrote: For these ferrite chokes do you put one on the cable anywhere?  At one end? Two (one at each end)? Josh Luthman

I was thinking 1 would be needed per line, but only based on where I've seen ferrite in the past. You are saying you do it on the power side of the poe, right? Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 “Success is not final, failure is not

If you did two I'd put them together or if you space them make sure you don't space them a half wavelength apart so as to avoid have a section between the beads that would be resonant. The reason for spacing them might be to keep the RF away from the other equipment so you don't have the

Hi Rick, I bought a couple of those beads that you linked to a few weeks ago when this was a hot topic -- but my outdoor (24 gauge) cable is too large to fit in them (i.e., the enclosure doesn't snap closed). Do you use an outdoor cable of smaller diameter than 24 gauge, or do you tape the

Right - the ferrite material needs to be continuous. The plastic bit is irrelevant. Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 “Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.” --- Winston Churchill On

No prob Rick -- yeah it could be that, it's Mohawk outdoor ethernet (don't know the specific model # off hand). Could also be since they only had two left in stock when I ordered that by the time my order was processed they slipped me another, smaller sized model shrugs :-) Thanks. RickG
