Alive and kicking ;) Yes, this product was too far along in the process. With
the AF-5X release, this will cover the 5.1-5.8GHz band. Knowing when any band
will become available is always a challenge...(and 5.1GHz is not used in many,
many parts of the world).

I don't know how long the products were in development before the proposal to
open the lower band was finalized. Maybe UBNT will comment on this?

Surely Ubnt and Cambium, among many others, saw that as a possible usable band
before it was actually legal to operate in. They have two AF5 units already -
an upper band for other countries I assume and a mid range one that doesn't
seem to be any different in the US (unless your DFS shots are super close).

I would suspect we would see something soon. There's also been talk of getting
4.9 cert on the AF5 and an AFX type product, but I don't know what's come of
that yet.

Why not try the 5.1 band? Oh wait...this brand new $2k product can't do the

Yeah our 14 mile link was almost too crowded in 5.7 and DFS was way under
power. We eeked by though with 200FDX. I'm thinking of swapping that link out
for an Airfiber X5 link. I need to run the numbers to see what I could get
there first though.

Not usable for this application. Looking forward to testing it for a shorter
link in a less congested area.
We should have been on a licensed link a long time ago… At least we are going
that way now.
