Great care has been taken to ensure this installation has minimum visual impact to this important heritage building.
The new upgrade has given new life into the Carrick Hill site, by not only offering better LOS for the Antennas as seen above, but also new equipment.
The older equipment was removed, which comprised of 500Mhz VIA Router, Minitar APs and some high gain slotted waveguides.
This was all replaced with a new PoE system including the FreeBSD latest Air-Stream Router System, Atheros based wireless cards and supported on the newest 500Mhz PC Engines Alix Boards. Along with the high performance Superpass antennas located with better LOS
This installation was made possible through the generosity of the Management of Carrick Hill for providing the site and power for this project and the members of Air-Steam who have given their time and commitment.
