I would have thought quality gear would have been OK - the wireless chip scanny uses was developed intially by a division of GEC-Marconi (their Essex based EEV division) which did a lot of commercial spin offs from defence work, was possibly over specced and/or benefited from the input of the sort of scientific genius probably far more than is needed for the average 'consumer' product.

 

Texecom is a lot newer so no doubt designed with 4G in mind from the start, whoever the RF chipset provider.

 

However, perhaps Honeywell gear, although I'd have thought it decent, has it's RF origins in a US product that just happens not to be going down so well with 4G?

 

Risco, I have no idea.

 

That's all totally off the top of my head. Chinky stuff will undoubtedly suffer the most, even if the RF IC sections are blatent clones of EU designed chipsets.

TBF, we fit quite a bit of wireless Honeywell and not had many issues, certainly not with RF jamming

 

Maybe we are lucky (touches wood)

i expect issues as the 4g roll out continues. 

Unfortunatly to ofcom the number of mobile devices is higher than our kit

The Honeywell RF portal is based on the CC1101 from TI.

So new frequency coming? What will you tell you customers? "Your stuffed"?

no, ofcom sold a freq for a load of money that now affects your system.

An example I was looking at today took its first single RF Jam after 11 months of flawless operation.   The system hadn't skipped a beat with a perfect heartbeat test signal record and daily open/close reporting.

4g upgrade locally?

I cannot determine any local mast information.  It's a bit of a mission to start asking which network providers and which phones are in use Etc.
