Probably different gain on the dishes from TX to RX. At least the AF24 has different gains.
So, say 33 on each end. 16 miles is 141 dB at this frequency. -141+66+4=-71 dBm Might work.

Most radios want a 2 or 3 foot dish on both ends minimum to do those lengths. But maybe it is a 1 watt radio and a very quiet noise floor? One would hope UBNT could jump in here and answer the question.

This list is international and not US-only as far as I know. The question was to those in other countries that might have used these radios. As far as I know the 10GHz is allowed in Mexico under a licensing process via CofeTel and SCT. I was hired to configure them and make sure they "talked" to each other passed traffic before they go to customs and get exported to Mexico. The integrator hired me due to recommendation from the Syscom/Epcom distributors sales representative. I don't know about the conversion but case was huge!

I had never played with the 10GHz product before and it was same interface as M5 pretty much. The box with dishes was good size. I didn't take them out as the radios connected to each other on bench. What kind of distance can these radios provide? The integrator installing the radios, cameras, UniFi and phones says they are going to shoot from a tower on mountain to quarry about 16 miles down the canyon. Can these work that far? I asked why they didn't use 5GHz and told me someone at Syscom in Chihuahua recommended these for long distance. Any one use these before? Jaime Solorza Wireless Systems Architect 915-861-1390
