Your outcomes with that feature sounded marginal.  Maybe it’s not ready and 
they don’t want to charge money for it until it’s more fully baked.  Just a WAG.

They do seem to have some headwinds.

 

But shareholder micromanagement is probably worse than stodgy product managers 
having the reins.

 

Developing and releasing a feature and failing to charge for it seems counter 
to a mad scramble to make money.  Unless they are finding that almost nobody 
wants it, which might be the case.  Even if license keys seem like 100% profit, 
there has to be some finite cost to sell and activate the entitlements.  If the 
number of sales would be in the single digits, it would actually make sense to 
just unlock it for free as Tyson Burris suggested.  I would be surprised 
though.  If nobody wants it, wouldn’t they just kill the feature so they 
wouldn’t have to support it?

Their shareholders are likely breathing down their necks even harder than their 
customers, so they are also in a mad scramble to make money.

Turns out you are right, they haven’t released the license key to distributors 
yet.  I was looking at the P/N and price for the key to unlock MU-MIMO on a 
450m Lite.  My mistake.

 

What is Cambium thinking, put the feature in a production release with a 30 day 
trial license, but not sell the key to use it beyond the 30 days?  And how are 
customers supposed to decide if it’s worth the price if they don’t tell us the 
price?

Correction to my comment.  I can’t see the benefit.

I was told they are still talking about the final price.  Either way I can see 
the benefit here if you have to give up some of the AP features to work.

I think you know the answer, it's $2000 per AP. $2500 MSRP.

I'd pay it if 3x and 4x modulations were suddenly 6x or 8x. But they're not.

$2000???   Please tell me that is not per Access Point?    I could handle maybe 
that for all of them.

This sector has a lot of long links, subs clustered in the middle of the 
sector, and several Ubiquiti WISPs in the same direction.  So the uplink 
modulation is poorer than downlink.  The SMs have narrow beams but the AP sees 
90 degrees.

 

The other case where we get uplink problems is in 3 GHz when Verizon lights up 
CBRS on a celltower, but we can (mostly) solve that by matching LTE timing.

I haven't seen a 450M sector get bad uplink modulation rates without downlink 
getting trashed too unless it was caused by a misconfig on our end causing self 
interference.

I tried it on what I thought was an ideal candidate sector, but my first 
impression is that it helps a little not a ton.  My uplink multiplexing gain 
was 1.0 so I figured I had nothing to lose.
