[chbot] Willowbank fibre network.

[Daniel Powell]

Charles, thanks for the reply. Had looked at a point to point wifi link (it’ll need to be directional given the distance), however there is no line of sight from either the portacom or the main office, both heavily obscured by well established trees. As such I discounted that option.

Cheers,
Daniel.

Why not Wifi?

I've recently been assisting Willowbank to form a small local LAN and trench in a new fibre broadband line.

We've trenched into the main office and laid a section of cat 6 back to a portacom office from the main office. We're looking to enable network coverage over to the Kiwi House from either this portacom or fibre from the main office.

To this extent the proposed copper runs above ground alongside an electric fence. I was thinking of running optoisolators at either end of copper, however a generous member of this group has offered fibre to the extent that would satisfy this run. I believe this to be a considerably better solution given the noisy environment.

Willowbank have nobody to currently terminate this internal line. I wondered if there was someone in this group that could volunteer their services, or offer them for material cost to terminate a single run of fibre.

Given their very limited current network, the run  to the kiwi house would enable video streaming, remote telemetry (with alerts) and data recovery of the incubators, kiwi weights and stop a clear majority of the sneekernet network that is required of the current system.

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
Daniel.
