How do I configure the following situation.
I have bandwidth at Tower B that is radiating a Signal in a omnidirectional pattern in the 2.4 GHZ range. My plan is to use a Bullet 2 connected to a 15 dbi omni antenna. This Tower B is in the middle of my system.
In addition I desire to get a wireless signal to Tower A (located east of Tower B) and Tower C located west of Tower B.
My question is what equipment and frequency range do i use for Tower A and C. It would be less expensive to use Tower B to radiate a omni signal using a Bullet 2 as an access point. Then at both Tower A and C, I would receive the Tower B signal by pointing a high gain parabolic back to Tower B. At each tower A and C after I received the Bullet 2 Signal from Tower B, what would I do at that point? Can I take the received signal at both Tower A and C and then connect the Bullet 2 used as a CP
E receiver unit and connect an eithernet cable into another Bullet 2 on another Channel and connect that Bullet 2 into another omni antenna at both Tower A and C? this will allow me to have 3 amni Bullet 2's operating at all 3 towers and not have to worry about dedicated links from Tower A to B and B to C. My question is , Is this idea above a good plan or is it better to simply make two separate links from Tower A to B and from Tower B to C using 5.8 GhZ as two separate links and then connect the links to another omni antenna at each remote tower A and C? I am looking at cost and the links are more expensive I am sure. I appreciate anyones opinion especially from personal experience. thank once again. This is really helpful. thanks again. KWD
