This site was installed before the epmp existed. It is what it is. Not
going to do a forklift upgrade for something that is otherwise working
fine. A better sector, sure. Not a whole new platform.

What about ePMP. I thought this would sync with the latest 450 software?
Also I have some Arc adjustable on the shelf if you would like to try one.

This needs to sync with a full cluster of Canopy APs that is only 3
miles away.

This site is not ABAB. It's not even AB. It is merely A. One
sector; 120° wide, with about 15 subs. About as low as you can
go. The problem is that most of the subs are near the outer
edges of a 120° sector. Dividing it into 2 sectors would be
an option if we had (or expected) more subs, but this one I
don't think that will happen. I'm not inclined to burn a
Canopy AP (or two even) on 7 or 8 subs each.

I think asking for 3 dB down at 120 degrees in dual pol
with matching patterns, good F/B and good sidelobes is not
going to happen. I’d plan on ABAB and look for a 90 degree
sector.
Hmmmm, the published patterns for the KPP “Gen III” are
kind of ugly, aren’t they? Plus the HPOL and VPOL azimuth
patterns don’t match very well.

I thought the KP sectors were suppose to be -3db at 120...
I think almost everything is rated at -6db now.

The new 120 is the old 90....search for something

What I'm looking for is a 120° sector that drops off
no more than 3db at the edges. The 6 db bull that
seems to be common these days is not what I'm
looking for.
Also want good F/B ratio, good cross-pol
performance, and tiny side lobes. In perfect world, it
would drop off 30db at 121°.
I want a pony too.

Good drop off is a good thing IMO.
If you want less drop off probably go with an
original Airmax sector. Those things bleed for
days and the f/b isn't very good. We installed
half a dozen people 180* off one of them.

Has anyone found a decent TRUE 120°
dual-polarity sector in 5 GHz? We're using a
KP on one of our POPs and the drop-off at the edge
of the 120° is just too much for our taste.
