If you have pictures of your install, or anybody for that matter, I'm sure we all would be interested in seeing them. I like seeing other ideas that make my life easier...

I agree the execution of this port is poor at best. I really don't care for the copper Ethernet ports either as they do not have a large enough opening for the shielded outdoor cable we run. I would run a short piece of weather tight flex conduit from the radio to a NEMA enclosure and then continue the cable run from that point. We've done this with our BridgeWave installations. I'd still like to see pictures or hear what you ended up doing.

Wondering what everyone does to seal up that port. The manual says you have to hook up the fiber / power port to metal conduit. Do you run conduit all the way back to the base? Do you just use a short piece? Do you put a compression fitting on the end? Use flex? Just curious. I used a threaded metal 3/4" sweep 90, then capped it off with a Trango AP compression fitting. It's a little heavy though, and I worry about the little screws that hold the 3/4" threaded base plate getting stripped out. -- Randy Cosby Vice President InfoWest, Inc 435-674-0165 x 2010 http://www.infowest.com/ "Letting off steam always produces more heat than light." - Neal A.
