Correct. It will not damage the 450m. That is how we are powering many of these units. Be mindful that the power scheme is the same for both the DC connection and the RackInjector. Meaning don't mix + and -48V, I haven't tried but it seems like a very bad idea. On Thu, Mar 4, 2021 at 10:09 AM Josh

I think smaller cells is where it's at. We're already moving to roof top installs in town. But even so, technology has gotten better. Consider the Alvarion VL radios just 10 years ago. SISO, 54 megabits at best -- which was about 25 megabits. Now we're doing MIMO and 150 megabits in a 20M
