I have an old TrangoLink-45 link in 5.3 GHz w/out DFS, 16 miles w/2 and 3 ft dishes, can’t carry enough traffic to really be useful as backup to the 11 GHz link that replaced it. I’m thinking if I can swap it out with a B5c in U-NII-1 using the existing dishes it will go from useless to a fully qualified backup for the licensed link.

We have seen some weirdness with them in the office and have not deployed them. Difficulty in getting them to connect. My other issue is the very low limit on downlink % - something like 55 if you run them in the 5.4 band. This makes it not much better in throughput than a 230 backhaul (which also has odd signal issues on recent firmware) unless you can get 8/8 modulation. Hey Mimosa - send me some backhauls...
