Hi Forest, Is there a way to feed sync from a cambium uGPS to your Rack Injector? the RI has an RJ-45 and the uGPS has an RJ-12, is there a special cable we can make for them to work together?
the uGPSs at this site seem to hold sync just fine but all the packetflux gps devices are struggling with the new interference (it's a large commercial tower) *Sean Heskett* *ZIRKEL * *Internet • WiFi • Phone • TV* 970-871-8500 x100 - Office Website <http://www.zirkel.us/> | Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/ZIRKEL/> On Sat, Sep 25, 2021 at 9:37 AM Sean Heskett <af...@zirkel.us> wrote: > Hi forest, > > Yes we have rack injectors on site providing sync over power to the APs. > However, we always like to have two sync sources especially at this site > which is at 10,500 feet, gets an average of 400” of snow per year and is > difficult to access fall/winter/spring because of snow or mud. > > What’s odd is we also have a UGPSs at this tower (to provide sync to our > two CBRS 450m’s) and the UGPS isn’t loosing lock under the heavy > interference.
