Maybe it could be an integrated solution with only one 'dish' vs the
dogbone design. I'm sure a lot of people would appreciate a smaller
AF5--even if it had less throughput/distance.

It could be lower end hardware, though I don't know how the costs of
design and manufacture change. Lower throughput may allow for smaller,
cheaper processors. Smaller processors use less power, so smaller
power supply? I'm no engineer, so I can't tell you how much this would
or would not change the price.
Something that only does 10 MHz wide?
I don't know their cost to manufacture, so I don't know how low they
can go with the existing hardware and still make money.
On the license front, I think people don't like the Cambium license
system because the base unit is too slow and there are too many units.
I think Gino's got something with a $1k 200 meg unit. Would be great
for (business) customer installs. Maybe just one license to go from
Lite to Full? Two things to keep track of, not several.

I asked this and got a negative response… UBNT should work o AF24 2
with 1 Gig capacity and a AF24Lite for 200-500 Mbps capacity for $1k link

Could they increase the QAM on the current AF24 to match that of the
AF5 and at least do 1 gigabit FDX on the current shipping hardware?
Not sure how increasing QAM levels work in FPGA land.

I'm sure they'll do a 24ghz AF 2/Duo/Super/Ultra with 1024QAM. In the
100mhz channels both ways that'll allow around 1280mbit FD - so a
2.5gbit backhaul... I'm assuming 3.65 will come as well.

I'm sure that AirFiber team (which they seem to keep
expanding) is silently sitting in their own little corner in
Chicago doing nothing.

I think the ePMP is going to run into the same problem all
the 802.11ac vendors are seeing with the new OOBE rules.
The 450 is able to provide a better performance within the
new environment so there will still be a differentiator.
The only question if it’s worth the difference.

.AC is an upgrade to .N. Cambium has the choice to use it
or not. Others do. epmp competes with 450 right now but
helps to keep customers and applications where 450 does
not meet the price point.

An .AC ePMP would be incredible - but the issue is whether
Cambium would be
fearful of it competing too much with the 450. What does a
company do when
it has 2 products that are too good, and the cheaper one
starts to outshine
the more expensive one in the most often used benchmark?
(mbps - even .AC
ePMP is unlikely to beat 450 in scalability / latency / etc).
