RB133 with High Power MiniPCIs

Hello Guys,

Please share your review or comment while using RB133 with 3 High Power MiniPCI (let’s say 3 pcs of R52H or 3pcs of XR2). And what about the specification of power supply we need ? to get the maximum performance.

Thank You

U can use 48V 2A power supply

do yourself a favor… if you’re trying to run multiple radio’s, espicially high powered ones, use a board with a faster processor then a 100 series board. use a 532 or a 333. you need the CPU power if you’re doing alot of wireless.

… Bzzzzzt… there goes your board, up in smoke …

Seriously, don’t apply 48V to that board !

Dont use 48v on routerboard 133, only the old boards are capable to work with 48v, your routerboard works fine with 24v 1-2 amp

The Rb133 has overvoltage protection built in and will not fry when 48vdc POE is applied. It will just not power up.

As for the original question, I have several Rb133 with 3 SR9 running. They perform just fine. I am in the process of replacing the SR9’s with XR9’s and they are performing fine also. As others have stated, the processor is where the bottleneck occurs. Since 900 mhz is a last resort for my network, I do not have that many customers running on 900 mhz. So, the RB133 works for me.
