The pictures tell it all.

The customer wanted 8 MB Duplex.
I had to upgrade the WRAPS I was using for BH and design for max throughput.
Oh yes while we were at it we bridged the links and installed CISCO routers and real managed switches so if we have a failure it will pick up from another source.
------------------
I made some 1 U rackmounts using the CL 10000 boards.
I could not get the boxes to 100% on the bench even with VDS running.
------------------

Telco said the pipes were frozen and the custoner wanted to move by the first.
A couple of 4 am sessions, running cables and working on the roof in the cold wind but here it is.
Many thanks to Lonnie and Tony for a great product.
The POE part was tough but we figured it out.

By the way ituner has a power supply for this type of app that has an input range of 11 to 30 VDC.
I found them out "after " I got this running.

Follow up info is in the "Current SBC section".

What type of antenna is that?

Checked "Current SBC" topics, but didn't find any followup info :)

Could you tell us what antenna that is? :)

GRIN!
It is a PAC 29 solid.
I had some old 23 Ghz gear that I dismantled and pop rivited the waterproof enclosure right to the PAC dish.
It makes a great setup.
If PAC or someone doesn't come up with a "Puppy Pod" to do what I did I am thinking about going into the manuf business and have the back parts made and assemble backhaul kits for sale.
It sure beats a Kludge type setup.
These have great micrometer adjustments.
Origional cost were a large down payment on a fine automobile when they were new.
I never throw anything away.. This shows why.

Hey, you never know, you might just make more money than being a wisp!

But on second thought, us "froogle" wisps probably would never really make you rch.

Very cool innovation!

Right. The antenna itself looked familiar (HyperLink 29dBi looks the same), but the back side got me completely confused. This explains it :)

Well done :)
