Ever wondered exactly how much engineering goes into professionally installing WiFi links to 99.999 percent availability? In this talk, Catonic will be covering calculating path loss, Fresnel zones, gain, power, and other topics which when combined are used to design RF links between two locations. The information in this talk is useful for VHF, UHF, and microwave link planning. Additionally, Catonic will be providing an analysis of some of the factors considered when iFiber Redwire planned and then executed last year's record WiFi shot of 125 miles.

Catonic Cinotac
Catonic Cinotac has been a systems administrator, all-around network monkey, and sometimes consultant for the past seven years and has been working with electronics and ham radio even longer. Through several present and former employers, he has been able to apply his diverse skills by designing and implementing several wireless ISP networks, providing support for wireless product testing, and keeping the servers up and running through a four hour power outage without A/C when the generator refuses to crank. When not in front of computers, Catonic likes to attend hacker cons in the southeastern United States where he has been known to speak on occasion.
