This is probably clear enough from the pictures, but you don't connect
anything to that waveguide fitting. The devices butt together and clamp
to each other. Your adapter would have to start with a plate as big as
the radio head, and yeah probably a clamp to hold that to the tower.
It might not be obvious to your customer, but Ceragon/Cambium already
sells the stuff they would need for that. There's a remote radio head
mount, and a flexible waveguide adapter. Add a waveguide to coax
adpater and appropriate coax cable and they'd have it done. Obviously
there are losses introduced, and none of that stuff is cheap. If
they're upgrading an AF11 they'd save the trouble of hanging a new
antenna, but they'll pay big bucks for the time saved.

Thanks.
I have had a request to make a connectorizing kit to allow these
radios to be used with AF11X antennas.
Not sure it is economically feasible. Especially if I have to add a
way to hang the radio as well.

Trying to remember.....I did do an XPol 11ghz once. I'm pretty sure
the interface was the same basic shape as that previous picture, but
maybe slightly rotated.

Do the 11 GHz units have a circular waveguide?

Sort of a rectangular waveguide opening with a round gasket around
it. Here's a 2+0 adapter to give you the idea.

What kind of antenna interface does this radio have?
