Good day,
We need to connect two remote sites with higher bandwidth possible and low latency, the distance between both sites is near four KM and there are 100ft towers in each site so we assume there is an acceptable line of sight, the location is a city.
What would be the maximum sustainable bandwidth we could and what combination of radio/antena should be used.
Thanks in advance.
use a pair of SXT. it is a gr8 device
thanks for replying, it seems this one does not need external antenna.
YES and it gives very good results too. The only thing u need to consider is to seal up some holes through which water can go in during heavy rains. Take note of it when u r mounting and tape/seal up a few holes it will solve.
you are talking of SXT what bandwidth do expect and latencies too. would go for a 19 dbi antenna on both ends
SXT has inbuilt 16dbi antenna and we have tested 15 mbps send and 15 mbps recieve test successfully with latencies going to 8-9 ms. I haven’t tested it with NV2 but am sure it would give more.
What distance was the link?
5-6 km
Do a spectrum survey first. If there are already several 5Ghz channels in use SXT is in the end going to have interference problems. Use devices with narrow beam antennas (high gain) and units that have the radio’s shielded of from the radio environment. Any plastic boxed radio (like SXT!) is nice if no other strong signals are near.
To create quality links don’t save on the antenna/radio combination, specially when the link is important!
Spend a day or so in reading this forum and MT WIKI and google a bit around. Don’t let you mislead by all the fancy adds from suppliers what they can achieve with the latest fashion models of units.
Spectrum and the understanding of radio wave behaviour is the major factor in building good links.
