Hi all,

I’m looking at redoing the networking at my local fire company. We already have new Aruba APs installed, but the backhaul is a mess.

Currently we have one HP 48 port poe gigabit switch, a netgear 24 port gigabit, and a unifi 24 port poe. None of these are in full use and its all the same subnet. Honestly confused as to why so many but whatever before my time. We’re running a cisco 5510 currently.

I’m going to UPS the setup (because whatever genius installed all this didn’t put one in) but I’m looking for some more opinions.

For cost I want to do a USG pro, and unifi switches, since the udm pro isnt stable enough yet.

For reliability i want to do cisco.

I also have experienc

Hi all,

Have an event coming up and a school was looking at renting some Sharpy's. The rental house wants about 1.4k for 2 fixtures across 3 days. For the same price I can get 4 "7R beam" lights off ebay from our friends in china. It's a 230w unit and looks like its supposed to be like a Sharpy. Does anyone have any experience with these units?

Well, I don’t know exactly it happened, but I’m now starting a community access channel. I know I’m going to need a modulator to get the SDI signal to the headend but I have a few questions. What are some examples and some expenses that I should know about?

Anybody know of any free or low cost inventory tracking software that supports Win Mobile 6? Recently was given 10 MC9090s and have no idea what to use them for.

Hola All, We have two home offices for a small start up. My house internet runs both my home network as well as the business PBX running on a R610. The other guys are at another house, if I want to have them be able to use desk phones on the same pbx, i was going to use a vpn gateway at their house to connect to mine. my issue is that I want the vpn to only allow sip traffic not web browsing. is this possible?

Hello lads and ladies, I have a fleet of UHF dmr radios that cover 400-470. I’m looking to get a repeater for them as well as a the appropriate license. Is this something I should pay someone to do or is it easy enough to do by myself? Any cheap dmr repeater recommendations?

Looking to find a way to power an in car xpr5500 off of a portable power supply that I can take in the house and charge over night... is this too ambitious? Any suggestions?

Has anyone had any testing done with this ap? I saw the range test done here:

But was looking for some other people who have used it. I’m thinking of using two of these to cover about a 1000 foot (300 meter) range of about 100 to 300 clients. Would these work or would a second set of two units be warranted to split up traffic?
