Exclusive installation footage of the MTS solar-powered repeater in the Stone Sea (VIDEO)

We shot this video at the foot of the Main Caucasus Range, at an altitude of 670 meters above sea level, during the installation of a unique active repeater on solar batteries. More about this told our expert Konstantin Kilber in the last post .



Recall, we were faced with the task of ensuring the maximum throughput speed in the village of Guzeripl, with a population of just over 100 people (the Republic of Adygea). The mountains interfered with the direct visibility of radio relay stations (RRC). Previously, a passive repeater was built (without active equipment): two radio relay antennas connected by a waveguide. However, the bandwidth was no more than 30 Mbit / s.

To remedy the situation, we needed an active solar-powered repeater, since with the power in the mountains is a big problem. The active repeater consists of two solar panels, two batteries of 12 volts and two antennas, a transceiver unit and a compact box, inside which are placed controllers and batteries. An external power supply is not required to active repeaters, which allows them to be placed where there are problems with power supply and where it is unprofitable to draw a new power line. The device consumes only 5 watts.

As a result, after installing the active repeater, the bandwidth in Guzeripl grew 10 times - from 30 Mbit / s to 300 Mbit / s. Our repeater has already survived both winter and summer, spring and autumn - and never once did the emergency recovery team have gone there.

In general, let's see the installation process itself against the backdrop of a stunning natural landscape.
It was unforgettable!
