I'm trying to increase WiFi coverage in a truck inspection area. Right now the green stars indicate a Cisco 9163E with the standard 4 Omni antennas mounted 20 to 30 feet up.The issue is when the inspectors are walking between the rows of trucks thei...
A year or so ago as a test of the technology, I purchased a 10GTek 10GBase-BX set of SFPs. They work great, but one thing I do not like about them. They identify themselves as 10GBase-LR on the switches. Which might be confusing to someone having ...
I've got two sets of switches. A 9300 stack and a stack of 2 9606s.Recently they've been suspending one of the ports in the etherchannel.9300 will randomly log:Jan 21 10:08:03: %ETC-5-L3DONTBNDL2: Te1/1/1 suspended: LACP currently not enabled on the ...
Normally we use Proline or Cisco brand SFPs but I'm considering trying some Startech ones for an idea I had. We have some areas of old OM1 fiber that I'd like to get running some 10G links over to the more remote areas of our property, and the about...
I have a 4431 that's running a really old IOS. I seem to remember in the past some of our layer 3 engineers have said they were upgrading it but apparently it has had some issues and always rolled back to the old IOS. None of those engineers are wi...
Each pole mount has a small electrical box at the bottom with a 120V outlet powering a 8 port cisco switch, either a 9200CX or 3560CX that does PoE to the AP. The one on the side of the building is connected over PoE to a 9300-48UN switch.
They are using the 2.4/5/6 GHz Cisco omnis with the antennas facing vertical. The pole mounted ones are strapped to the pole using Cisco mounts that wrap around the pole with the data cable exiting down from the port. The one mounted to the side of...
We've decided as a policy we won't do point to point Wi-Fi bridges any more. The ones we already have are not stable. At one point we did try to convert one that a camera vendor installed before I had the position from some non-cisco hardware to c...
Yeah that would be nice but nothing to mount them to overhead unfortunately. Running fiber to one of the other poles was going to be too costly so I was just trying to see any other less expensive ideas.
