So far so good! The 16 port is just a switch, smaller ones are routers. The 16 is what we are using. powers 4 48vdc and 12-16 24vdc. Spring storm season will tell. Considering the number of fried Netonics and Digital Loggers over the years, with not just surge damage, but issues in software...

Has the edgepoint been rock solid for you? Thats my main concern with that approach. This tower is a difficult climb (its actually a light pole) so avoiding trips up top is ideal. On Jan 18, 2017 3:50 PM, "Clay Stewart" < cstew...@stewartcomputerservices.com> wrote: > UBNT EdgePoint > > On Wed,

We use UBNT Carrier. We have attached it to 1/8 cable for support. You do have to be careful not to tear the outer shield, as otherwise you will have water go into the cabinet. We now do not use cat5 on commercial towers, and have opted to a power cable with fiber. Why run 10-12 strands of cat5

You cut off the outer most plastic. Then it's "normal size" cat5. I believe I used regular rj45 from a local supply back then. Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 On Wed, Jan 18, 2017 at 2:39 PM, Chris Fabien

We are doing a deployment on a 90ft steel monopole where our cable will hang inside the pole. It seems like we should be using a better grade of cable than the Primus shielded cat5 we usually use for towers where it is taped to the leg. Any suggestions? Thanks Chris Fabien LakeNet LLC
