They started installing poles along a main road near where we live and I’m not sure what the white antennas on them are for. Some of the poles have traffic cameras like the one in the picture but others don’t. They are spaced every half to one mile and have antennas on opposite sides, with what looks like a radio cabinet near the base. The antennas are all aligned along the road, pointing parallel to traffic. This is in southwest Pennsylvania.

As for what it’s for, it could be anything. Possibly just for the camera that’s also on that pole?

I’m pretty sure that’s what Bill Gates will be using to activate the 5G nanobots that we all received in the COVID vaccine.
We were all supposed to die by late 2020. What’s taking so long?
6 months1 year234SOON!They forgot to put out all the antennas, and you know how slow big infrastructure projects can be.
They said that people would start dying like flies in no time. Why do I care? You see, currently houses and cars are so expensive, because there are many people who also want to buy those things. If the population was cut to a fraction, as was promised, the prices would crash accordingly due to massive oversupply of everything. I’m still waiting for the day when I can buy a house with 1000 €.
big ol ubiquiti mesh network. many towns are covered in them. iirc ubiquiti made a name for themselves doing wireless in stadiums… had some solid firewalls/routers
the new stuff is pretty at least
Point to point and point to multipoint are not the same as a mesh network.
right, one is just a small piece of the others infrastructure.
No bro. A mesh network is a bunch of access points that repeat each others signals. This is like a single cable, but using RF. It is not an access point.

This is the wireless equivalent of a single Ethernet cable. if you follow each of the dish pairs in a roughly straight line, you will hit another transceiver. This pole would be middle three nodes of this:
(Air Fiber) <-------> (Air Fiber) (switch) (Air Fiber) <--------> (Air Fiber)
Camera could also be plugged into the switch.
And yes, if a car impacts the pole, you lose that point to point link. Hope you got a failover plan or another set of air fibers that take a different path.

It is not using token ring protocol. It is a wireless implementation of the Ethernet protocol. I don’t think you fully understand what token ring is, or we’re not doing a good job of explaining what a point-to-point radio is.
Forgive my ignorance in that case. I did very poorly on the unit that covered token ring, and was in perpetual self doubt because I got an answer wrong when I referenced the original manufacturer document instead of the slides.
Nothing against the protocol, I just didn’t learn it properly and was born too late to see it in person. (I love learning about all tech)
