Re: [AFMUG] Extending home network

2024-10-16 Thread dmmoffett 
In 2021 we still had a pair of Tranzeo TR-5A for a few hundred foot point to 
point between two towers.  I think it must have been there for 10-15 years.  We 
would have upgraded it at some point, but it did what it needed to do for the 
one customer and it was forgotten.

 

I recall taking one of those apart and being struck by how basic it was. A 
sheet metal backplane.  The ethernet jacks were keystone couplers snapped into 
a rectangular hole in the sheet metal, and it was a single board computer with 
a little wifi card.  I felt like I could have made it myself.  That’s 
Dunning-Krueger talking; I’m sure there are 10,000 details where I wouldn’t 
know enough to know I was doing them wrong, but at least on the mechanical 
aspects it was dead simple.
