I would add that it seems Ubiquiti has made the brilliant decision to sell the AF11x units as kits with the dish, … Go figure

This will provide 435 Mbps full duplex / 870 Mbps aggregate ALFOPlus1 - this is a single carrier 4096QAM radio using an 80 MHz channel. This will provide 711 Mbps full duplex / 1.422 Gbps aggregate ALFOPlus2 - this is a dual carrier/XPIC 4096QAM radio using 2x 80 MHz channels for 1.422 Gbps full duplex / 2.844 Gbps aggregate We can also pair the ALFOPlus2 with our 80 GHz 10Gbps ALFOPlus80HDX radio for multi-band support. Let me know if any questions or you need additional info.

That's news to me, SIAE has always told me they do 56MHz in a 80MHz channel. The pair that I have in the air is currently set up that way.

As far as advance replacement, I believe there is an additional warranty you can purchase to get that. Haven’t done it, so can’t comment. There is some period of time after shipment, I think 30 or 45 days or something, where they will treat it as a DOA and just replace it. If you buy a bunch of radios and then a bunch of dishes and then have tower climbers put them up on towers when weather permits, it’s easy to have a couple months pass before you realize you got a bad radio. Then you can be looking at 2-3 months turnaround because they treat it as an in-warranty repair. And honestly, if it was DOA, I really don’t want it repaired, I want a radio that was good out of the box. I was lazy about bench testing the radios because the first couple years I never got a bad one. Then in 2019 I had two bad ones, and even though I had purchased a spare link, the bad ones were either both High or both Low. Once they work, I haven’t had any die so far. I have 6 PTP820S links and 2 PTP820C links in service. All 11 GHz except one 6 GHz. Not a huge number of them, but we’re small. We also have some older Trango and Exalt links.

Make sure you account for the price of all the keys you may need. Ask your Cambium rep if you can get a discount, especially if you intend to buy multiple links. They may have promos or be able to give you special pricing on the HW, the keys, or both. Does no good to badger your distributor for special pricing, it has to come from your Cambium regional sales rep. If you don’t know that person, make their acquaintance. One final thing – test all radios on the bench as soon as you receive them, even if they won’t be deployed for a few weeks or maybe are spares. At least run the internal RF loopback test. Better yet, bench test them as High/Low pairs, with several reams of paper in between or bouncing off the ceiling. It will be a lot easier to get any DOA or early failure radios replaced if you can just return them as DOA, rather than sending them in for repair under warranty later. Repair turnaround time is unspectacular. Ken is being nice with ‘unspectacular’. I would go with awful.
