  The logarithmic energy dependence of gauge couplings in AdS_5 emerges almost
automatically when the theory is deconstructed on a coarse lattice. Here we
study the theory away from the coarse-lattice limit. While we cannot
analytically calculate individual KK masses for a fine lattice, we can
calculate the product of all non-zero masses. This allows us to write down the
gauge coupling at low energies for any lattice-spacing and curvature. As
expected, the leading log behaviour is corrected by power-law contributions,
suppressed by the curvature. We then turn to intermediate energies, and discuss
the gauge coupling and the gauge boson profile in perturbation theory around
the coarse-lattice limit.
