We are finally getting started with a network for a city. Has anyone done a mesh using proxim . We will start out with a back haul and about 5 camera locations. The stuff seems rather pricey but I can't affford to not have this work properly. Any Info or things to watch out for would be appreciated.

Your backhaul should be seperate link ?

speeds -what is the bandwidth of each cam
freq -2.4or 5ghz ?
antennas omnis I guess ?
power may need adjusting

interference\other users -do a site survey

"mesh" -nice buzzword sales people use.

the back haul is a seperate link

we have three freq we are working with 4.9 2.4 and I beleive the backhaul is 5.8. City has to get a license for the 4.9 I believe.

If it's the city, they shouldn't need a license for 4.9Ghz. As a city they should have access to that band.
