We have dozens of ABI's and AirNics, some older than one year......with not a SINGLE failure.....except one blown apart by a direct lightning hit. Outdoor units are the opposite story......we've replaced every outdoor unit at least once, some twice.....mainly due to ethernet port dying problem.....caused by poor grounding design, poor POE design, faulty power supplies, and lots of electrical storm activity here in New Mexico. Looks like SB addressed this with the POE Outdoor product.....haven't seen one yet however. Anyone know price and availability on these yet?   Bobby Bounds Airwave Internet ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Radabaugh To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 8:46 PM Subject: Re: [smartBridges] What is the life expectancy of a Smartbridge My oldest one is about 8 month now.   I had to clean the spider family out of a Smartbridge Outdoor today - seems a whole family moved in through the vent hole in the bottom.   I don't know for sure if that was what was causing the odd signal drops this customer was having but there were webs all over the circuit board -  it certainly wasn't helping matters any.   I stuck a piece of tape over the vent hole - somehow I think I'll eventually regret that....   Mark ----- Original Message ----- From: Pascal Losier To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 10:36 PM Subject: [smartBridges] What is the life expectancy of a Smartbridge Who as an airbridge radio set-up for a long time ????   How many years ???   Indoor or outdoor.   I'm just curious to see if Smartbridges while last like a carrier class.   What is the life expectancy of a Smartbridge ?????
