True or false - Adding a satellite with slower backhaul slows down backhaul to entire system?
I apologize that I cannot find a clear answer on this, although I am sure it has been asked and answered many times before. TRUE OR FALSE: Adding a satellite with a slower backhaul to an existin...
In otjher words, I have an RBR50/RBS50 system. If I add the RBS40V to the system, will it bring the entire RBS40V backhaul down to the RBS40V level?
As methioned, something to try out with a 40 series RBR and see. If it does, then you can send the RBS back...
I don't think so as each RBS has a independent connection with the RBR unless you have Diasy Chain On. I would presume the RBS connected with the RBR would have the backhaul independently from the other RBS if there not connecting RBS to RBS. So with a RBS50 connected at one end of the house to the RBR in the middle, should keep or see near 1170-1733Mpbs and the RBS40 at the other end of the house to the RBR will see only 866Mbps max.
Thanks, and apologies for the confusion. No, I wouldn't be daisy chaining them.
I would assume the same as your assessment, but in my research of buying the new satellite, I am encountering similar assumptions, some being stated as fact which made me question the truth.
I'd like to give it a shot...but Is there a known good way to test each satellite speed independantly to confirm if differing backhaul speeds does or does not impact the system backhaul as a whole?
I believe you can check the backhaul speeds of the RBS with a telnet command...I was looking thru my notes and I think you can check this using this command:
