The only pair I have is running from the NOC to a nearby core site at
3.4 miles. FDD, 20MHz Rx, 30MHz Tx. DFS. Must use 2.2-beta3 or you will
have radar issues.
They are currently at -70 to -71dBm on all chains. Mostly 6x Tx, 8x Rx.
Currently about 220x180Mbps. I do not get the sub-1ms latency out of
them, more like sub-3ms average. I've had only about 125Mbps Tx
sustained peak on them, normally 90-100Mbps nightly. But they seem to
work fine. That said, we will probably make this link licensed next year.
I really hope UBNT will be doing a 5.1-5.3GHz version. I could use more
of those than 5.4/5.7 that does nothing more than eat up prime PtMP
bands. Until the cable co's hose 5GHz like the SCADA guys killed 900.

How many come on a pallet? We just bought two AF5's from Baltic. The
boxes were large enough for one of our guys to get into and pop out of
when an unsuspecting co-worker walked past. We are going to try them
on a six mile link and we'll see what happens. I'm planning on
getting more bandwidth out of them then the Rocket we currently have
deployed but I'm not holding my breath for full modulation. Why do
you say you're looking for FW to make them useful? What do we need to
be aware of?

The antennas are too small to be useful in most places.

I get the feeling that AF5s aren't selling too well and there is
a bunch of old inventory they are trying to move. AF24s are
still selling well.

It'd be nice to see the AF24 @ $850 too.

Well crap, that was not supposed to happen. Baltic is
selling the AF5 for $850. Is this the new normal, not
$995? 150 bucks off makes it somewhat more attractive
versus some other options, if I can use it for short
distance FDD-like links and keep it in 1024QAM mode.
