Very nice, do you think we could work on this soon? If you want to ride to the EOC with me come on over, leaving around 5 from the house. 9x From: Bryan Fields <bryan@flscg.org> To: Florida Simulcast Group Public <FSG-public@lists.keekles.org> Sent: Tuesday, May 24, 2016 11:20 PM Subject: [FSG-public] Data radios and clients I've been doing some work looking at the HamWAN standards for access/client data radios. Basically this will setup us for a 2x2 MIMO AP and client capable of hitting 65Mbit/s over the air in a 10 MHz channel at 5.9 GHz. We can still use the older client radios with this which do not support MIMO, but at 37.5 Mbit/s over the air data rate. Here is a brief explanation of MCS index values. Below is a list of the 3 AP's and antennas and 3 client radios. I've added in the WaveGuard shields which increase the performance of the sector antennas by shielding the back side radiation from them. The cable is already installed from the shelter to the top roof on the building, so installation and configuration of this should be a few hours worth of work. The cool thing here is the client setup is under $200 and about the same price as a entry level HT. | Quanity | Description | Vendor | PN | Price | | Subtotal | | 3 | Ubiquiti 5G-19-120 120 degree H/V sector | Flytech | AM-5G19-120 | 119 | | 357 | | 3 | WaveGuard AM5G19 | streakwave.com | WG-AM2/5G-120 | 39 | | 117 | | 3 | MikroTik RouterBOARD RB912UAG-5HPnD-OUT | streakwave.com | RB912UAG-5HPnD-OUT | 74 | | 222 | | 3 | RF Elements SBX-S-CC-2SMA | streakwave.com | SBX-S-CC-2SMA | 25.65 | | 76.95 | | 6 | Tycon Power Systems TP-ESP-1000-POE Network / Lighting Surge Protector 1Gb | https://www.streakwave.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=TP-ESP-1000-POE | | 22.57 | | 135.42 | | | | | | | | 0 | | Clients | | 3 | MikroTik RouterBOARD RB912UAG-5HPnD-OUT | streakwave.com | RB912UAG-5HPnD-OUT | 74 | | 222 | | 3 | Ubiquiti Networks RD-5G30-LW 5GHz 30dBi dual pol 2' dish Light Weight | https://www.streakwave.com/itemdesc.asp?ic=RD-5G30-LW | RD-5G30-LW | 105 | | 315 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | subtotal | 1445.37 | | | | | | | shipping | 261 | | | | | | | TOTAL | 1706.37 | <!--#yiv4555445243 td {border:1px solid #ccc;}#yiv4555445243 br {}--> This is a projected coverage of the AP's off the roof with a 35' client radio setup. We'll blanket most of Tampa Bay with very usable -75dBm signal. Any ham needing a link will be able to get on here and light up their repeater/base site with an IP connection. -- Bryan Fields, W9CR Florida Simulcast Group, Inc. _______________________________________________ FSG-public mailing list FSG-public@lists.keekles.org http://lists.keekles.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fsg-public
