Hello,
Has anyone ever tried using Radiating Coaxial Cable to provide 2.4ghz coverage indoors - in corridors such as in hotels, tunnels etc?
I have just found out about this kind of cable, which is mainly used along train lines and tunnels. It seems like it would be a good solution for the hotel industry, lowering the amount of APs required indoors.
Reading about the cable, it seems that you can order it with varying amounts of apertures, so for instance on long runs, you increase the number of apertures as the length of the cable increases and after joins to counteract signal loss.
I can't find the link for the newsletter that I saw this in, but it was talking about the Channel Tunnel section 2 and how they provided the comms for it.
Here is a link to the manufacturer page for indoor stuff http://www.rfsworld.com/product-solutio ... l&sol=2380
I believe the product was radiaflex, and the cable worth varying apertures was variaflex or variflex.
I hope this can be used!
Tony
