Installed DC power supply in the power/network enclosure at turbulence tower. It is charging one battery for the beacon and ?? batteries for the data system and sensors.
Removed solar panels and other batteries from the site.
Fabian and Armando terminated and tested the fibers, installed fiber patch panels
at the tower enclosure and in the seatainer, and connected the fiber/copper media converters. The media converters (need model number) are temperature rated from 0 to 50 degC. At the enclosure the converter is in the metal enclosure with the power supply. Hopefully the converter's own heat and heat from the DC supply will keep it warm enough.
The 30 foot run of ethernet cable from the enclosure to the data system at the tower is currently an indoor-rated cat 5 cable, with RJ45 connectors on each end. It is routed through a 1/2 inch hole in the side of the adam and through a knock-out in the bottom of the enclosure. It should be replaced with an outdoor rated cable through conduit to prevent critter chewing.
We removed the WIFI equipment and cables at the turbulence tower and the walkup tower.
