![]() The reason for many of the small point-to-multipoint networks we do often have nothing to do with Cameras. Yes, we could use a cnVision - IF the client wants Cambium cameras (and not extending their existing camera network) and IF they want cameras in the first place. THAT was the much lauded ‘flexibility’, but when the 3000 series was developed, Cambium decided to remove that ability… which has now saddled us with a bunch of distasteful and ‘UN-flexible’ options. These are all bad solutions, caused by Cambium’s manipulative decision to remove Access Point functionality out of the ePMP SM’s which they all previously all had had. ![]() I use 3000MP in a dozen or so locations and they do great in a highly noisy environment.įor the features locked with licenses, I was thinking the 450MicroPOP. GPS for 4 clients? Maybe that makes sense in a heavily polluted spectrum. Of course, you can buy a Ferrari to drive to the store, but what for? For the price difference, the e3k-L is a much more featured radio and you can choose to add a pair of stick omnis or get a large omni to suit the needs of the application. Not that it would matter much but the MP3000 also does not have any GPS sync. Sometimes, due to the users’ unawareness, the turned on spectrum analyzer can cause a lot of problems, and often users forget to turn it off. I am for this type of task and there is one 300-19. ![]() Besides, how many times during use do you use the spectrum analyzer? 1,2,3 - rather uncommon. There is a spectrum analyzer on each of them. It also does not have an spectrum analyzer function so you van not use a scan to determine if you have a clean channel.īut the customer has 4 300-16 devices on hand. Well, if someone wants to pass the signal without line of sight, it can be uncomfortable The MP3000 does not have a good antenna (only 9db) so lots of foilage is a concern. We hadn’t purchased anything other than Cambium for many years until they did this to us - but there’s really no other sensible choice. I can’t see paying them extra for a feature they removed, which we used to have built in.Īnyway, so if you are looking for that, you’ll either need to buy a 3000 Series AP and Antenna (which is total overkill) or you’ll unfortunately need to go to another brand. There are rumors that Cambium is going to now add that feature back in as yet another one of their licensing schemes, so that you may be able to purchase that feature back at some point… but I don’t know. So now, you’d need to step way up to the ePMP 3000 line to get point-to-multi-point AP capabilities now. But when they came out with the 3rd generation gear, Cambium decided to remove that feature. We also used to use that feature lots for farms (connecting a small network of 3 or 4 radios - house, barn, Quonset, cameras, gate) and that was one of the often advertised features of the ePMP line. If you are meaning that you want to use a F300-16 as an AP, and connect the other 300-16’s as SM’s to that… then unfortunately Cambium decided to remove that feature.Īs Jacob said, the ePMP 1000 & 2000 series (and ePMP1000 connectorized, Force 180, Force 190, Force 200 SM’s) all had the ability for any device to act as an AP or as an SM. Just typing all of this in case anybody has the same question… it’s really not a problem I just have the wrong AP… I was able to get everything going without reading any instructions… until I tried to connect the 3rd F300 and no go… until I unplugged the first client and bam the other client connected…that’s when I knew something was keeping it from having two clients. This system also includes three cnPilot Dual Band Radios… Pretty crazy… wasn’t expecting this snafu … Don’t have much to say about the lights…or the little plastic piece that holds the cover on… I can usually build something like this in a hour or so…but now I know… better ask questions if purchasing more of this equipment… this is the first of seven RV Parks I can upgrade… I’m not used to failure… I have been using UBNT and Engenius type radios since 2005… ![]() I think the 1000 are low cost…i need integrated, no antenna jacks. Thanks! For getting back with me so fast…I did some investigating and seen where you had answered this same question
