That's interesting, Jeff.
Your history is very similar to ours here at Liberty University, but we are
taking a slightly different approach.
We were one of Cisco's first CCA customers after their takeover of Perfigo.
Some of our people visited Perfigo during our evaluation of the product. That
The FCC's Wireless Telecommunications Bureau, in cooperation with the National
Association of Telecommunications Officers and Advisors (NATOA), will host a
workshop focusing on collocations of wireless and broadband antennas on
wireless and other communications towers (e.g. AM Radio towers) and
Wondering if anyone has put together (or found commercially) a non-behemoth
battery solution for deploying mesh APs for X number of hours, for event
support?

We use these for surveys, get about a day of battery out of it easily, not sure
if it'd work for your specific situation thought.

Thanks, Garrett- I remember these from the days of the Cisco 350, but from
memory though they were only good for a couple of hours. Looks nice, and a
fair price for what it gets you.

I've done about 6 hours of site survey with a dual-radio 802.11a/g AP
(estimated 9 Watts) using a consumer-grade 350VA UPS that cost about $50.
It's not that the UPS died after 6 hours, it's just that that's all I
needed on battery. I don't know how long it could have gone.

Thanks, fellows. The goal is something that can be neatly packaged for weather
and put in a tent or a parking lot or whatever, mesh from nearby for local use
like handheld scanners, etc. So compactness and such count.
On the UPS, your using AC outlet to injector, yes?
