Since many seem to have not caught Ben's statements....
==== The 3 new products announced today : R5AC-PTP - Rocket w/AirPrism, PTP only NBE-5AC-19 - 19dB NanoBeam PBE-5AC-620 - 620mm PowerBeam Also, all of the software updates: http://www.ubnt.com/broadband/software/ Some highlights: - Dedicated spectrum analysis (persistent) - CINR (Carrier to Interference and Noise Ratio - accurate assessment of channel conditions - New diagnostic tools (Ethernet Cabling test, RF Diagnostics, etc...) - PTMP enabled on R5AC-LITE The R5AC-PTMP (AirPrism AP) will be announced shortly. Thanks, Ben ==== ==== Yes, PTMP firmware is available for download now. ==== ==== ;-) I think you guys will really like the new SW tools being added (especially the persistent spectrum analyzer...lots that can be done with that). Will send out some details shortly on PTMP networks in the wild ;) ==== ==== Part #'s and pricing should be up later today / tomorrow . Shipping in Dec with initial availability in late December/early January. The R5AC-PTMP with airPrism is right behind... ==== ==== We already have these in transit. I would expect DFS to be available on these early next year. The NanoBeams do not have DFS yet...but they will. ==== ==== Backwards compatibility is planned, but will be some time before being implemented (will ask team for update on timeline). There are a lot of features/products that will go into AC prior to adding backwards compatibility (making sure these are solid first before adding more variables). ==== ==== Oh...and heard back that estimate is ~3 months for release (beta sooner). ==== (I think he has a typo in here) ==== 11n CPE's will have ability to work with 11AC AP's...This will allow you to transition a tower. Note that 11ac speeds will not be as good as 100% AC network, but 11ac CPE's that you deploy will still be better than 11n. ==== ==== Yes, 2GHz AC is in the works. The 5GHz was highest priority and 2GHz is following. I would expect most of the 5GHz products to roll out over next 1-2 months and you will see 2GHz products soon after. ==== ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Kranz via Af" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, December 10, 2014 2:20:32 PM Subject: [AFMUG] RM5AC-PMP Embargo lifted.. The NDA embargo on RM5AC-PMP platform has been lifted so we can talk freely about this stuff now.. Anything you all want to hear about regarding these units?
