I can answer that I've been monitoring the full setup (dish + router) through a Kill-A-Watt for a few days, and it never goes below 94W, and averages a little over 100W.
- freedomben 6y agoI don't have numbers for just the starlink stuff since I have other things plugged in to my UPS, but that sounds about right. The power brick is always warm to the touch. My other ISP also uses PoE to power a wireless dish (line of sight) and uses a little less power but not a ton less.
- Scoundreller 6y agoI see report of 5-10w on ubiquiti gear.
- walrus01 6y agothe power consumed for a WISP PtMP last mile CPE radio is considerably less than starlink. Typical CPE for a ubiquiti, cambium or similar antenna will be 8-12W at the AC wall power side of the PoE injector. Starlink is more like 100W constant.
- spookthesunset 6y agoHow much of that is dumped into the antenna? It’s LOS so it shouldn’t need too many watts for TX.
