This is why I'm moving away from UBNT for 11ghz backhauls. They jacked the
price up on the stand alone units. Stock has been non-existent since
November/December which was the last time I was able to order stand alone
AF11 radios. Now a rumor they will never sell them again without their
crappy dish? Which BTW has steel bolts on that you know will turn to rust
in a couple years which really pisses me off. I know that other brands cost
about 2x-2.5x like Aviat but for the same licensed 80mhz channel you can
get 1.4gbps full duplex and I have never seen a AF11 radio actually push
over 600 meg. Had a 5 mile and 6 mile AF11 link fade in the rain just as
bad as a AF24 would on a 3-4 mile shot. I'm going all Aviat from here on
out, 11, 18, 80ghz. Their pricing is extremely competitive. Ken is awesome,
always emails me back within 30 minutes with any questions I have. Hell you
can buy a 80ghz link that is keyed up for 10gbps full duplex for $5200 out
the door. Siklu's promo for $4200 link will only do 2gbps which you can't
even get from Baltic because they are sold out.
