re: Seeking to Determine Who Will Enroll in SMA or Gigabit Ethernet Evaluation Kits

rscasny

imageMonths ago, I ran a discussion on roadtesting these kits:

  • BROADCOM AFBR-FSEK50B00S SMA Evaluation Kit
  • BROADCOM AFBR-FSEK50B00E Gigabit Ethernet Evaluation Kit

Here's the link to the original discussion. Click here

We are now at the decision point, whether to roadtest these kits if there is the interest or not.

The kits have a significant price, thus, the sponsor is making a considerable investment.

QUESTION: if you are interested in enrolling in the roadtest of these products, please leave a comment and I'll contact you.

Thanks.

  • The evaluation kit for AFBR-FSEK50B00E piqued my interest after viewing this drawing.image

    My first thought was doing throughput performance comparisons.

    I would use a two Pi as a test host and compare wifi, wired and optical link performance.

    I'm curious that the development kit TX to RX sensors are fixed. What happens if the sensor separation varies.

    Yes, I had the same reaction to the Ethernet based evaluation kit, but I don't think I would be able to do much more than just "performance testing" and "what if I move it slightly offside or further apart". I initially had the idea to use it on a rotating platform or through a window glass, but in the end, I'm not sure this is worth the sponsor's money.
