Subject: [AFMUG] SiteMonitor Base 3

Sorry for the non-Friday marketing, I'm trying to get out of town headed toward 
WISPAPALOOZA with a few meetings and family visits along the way.  But figured 
several of you would be interested in the following.

(The following is a mostly-duplicate of an email I sent out to customers who 
asked to be notified of new product announcements).

At WISPAPALOOZA next week, we’ll be showcasing the SiteMonitor Base 3 Classic 
Edition.

The Base 3 is the successor of the current Base Unit II product. It’s designed 
with an easy to use and mobile-friendly web interface virtually identical to 
the one in our RackInjector product. Gone are the 1’s and 0’s of the old 
SNMP-based web interface. Instead, everything is easy to understand and much 
more intuitive. If you’re at WISPAPALOOZA, stop by and take a look (and tell 
your friends too).

In addition, the Base 3 is designed with the future in mind. The existing Base 
Unit II product reached a point where there wasn’t any room in the internal 
program memory to add more functionality. In contrast, we’ve just barely 
touched the surface of what the Base 3 is capable of. We’ll be adding more and 
more features as time goes on.

The Classic Edition retains the existing form factor and maintains electrical 
compatibility with the existing product line. It is designed as a drop-in 
replacement for the older Base Units. At most sites, you’ll be able to simply 
swap out a Base Unit II for a Base 3 and gain all of the functionality of the 
newer Base 3.

For those of you who have expansion modules (such as SyncInjectors, 
PowerInjectors, additional I/O and/or other interfaces), our intent is to 
support most expansion modules that have shipped. At release, you’ll be able to 
manage the Base 3 and Revision H or later SyncInjectors and PowerInjectors. 
Others will be added quickly afterward. The only possible exception is some of 
the very first modules we shipped well over 7 years ago – we’re still assessing 
the earliest modules to determine what’s needed to support them. If we can 
support them, we will.

For many of the expansion modules, you’ll instantly gain much more 
functionality than was possible to accomplish with the previous Base Unit. As a 
specific example, the SyncInjectors and PowerInjectors are gaining greatly 
improved GPS and 1PPS status information, to help troubleshoot any GPS receiver 
problems one might have. In addition, port descriptions are now long enough to 
store pretty much any information and are set on a per-port, not per-item basis.

We’ll be taking pre-orders for the new Base 3 shortly, with units hopefully 
shipping around the end of the year. Initially, pre-orders will be limited to 2 
per customer, primarily for in-network testing. The pre-order price will be the 
same as the existing Base Unit II’s at $99.95. We are still working on setting 
the final price, but it will be most likely to be somewhat higher due to 
increased product costs.

Although we feel that many of our customers will switch over to the Base 3, we 
also know that some people will want to continue to deploy the Base Unit II 
product to maintain consistency across their network. We currently have no 
definite plans to discontinue the Base Unit II. We will continue to stock it as 
long as customers continue to buy it fairly regularly. After that, we will 
likely keep it available for purchase on a build to order basis as long as it 
is economically feasible to do so.

As always, if you have any questions, feel free to email us at 
cust...@packetflux.com<mailto:cust...@packetflux.com>
