Josh, I think you're missing something. If you do rings and a link goes down, more traffic starts going the other direction, or reverses completely. So IMO, 50/50 is fine because it's not full duplex and I don't want to have to flip a link from 75/25 to 25/75 (or whatever options there are). A link goes down, traffic changes and I do not want to take down yet another link to fix perhaps a temporary issue. OR cause a much larger permanent issue, e.g. config apply or reboot makes the radio(s) not come back up.

And AFAIK, the AF5X isn't capable of FDD. It's not your regular airFiber with two radios, or separate Tx and Rx antennas, or whatever it is.

We're ISPs. Our backhauls don't really need any upstream other than the upstream needed to sustain downstream.

Could you first get an idea on what the benefit would be? If it would be <5% additional bandwidth it doesn't make much sense. Sync isn't a big deal to me unless I replace ALL backhauls with af5x which just isn't a realistic possibility.

    Hi,

    There are no plans for airFiber dynamic framing at the moment. It
    could be done if you didn't care about having multiple units
    synced together (as the framing would be changing). I don't know
    how much more in one direction we could make this and meet DFS
    rules for those bands... Is there a need for this?

            Hi,

            No. Currently we support 50/50, 75/25, and 67/33 (either
            master to slave or slave to master).
