You would if you have 70-100 subs per AP
Yeah I know your not supposed to do that...
So far for most of the networks I have seen with epmp/ubnt vs pmp over
3-4 years TCO is about the same. This however depends on your
deployment. Ubnt/epmp are significantly less expensive in some
situations and actually pmp can be the least costing in some as well. It
all depends on your situation. If you have free space on strictures
that don't require a tower crew to deploy and rent is low per AP then
the cost savings with UBNT/epmp is great. If you are paying for tower
crews and $3500 a year per sector then pmp may be a better solution.
The other situation I think most people don't consider is that something
that cost more is worth more. Not necessarily in actual usefull value
but in truly monetary sense. How many people actually RMA a nanostation?
Not very many it goes in the trash becasue it isn't worth my time to go
through the process. Therefor there is not a large market for
re-manufactured or used equipment. Therefor resell value isn't very
good. Bad resell value makes it harder to get leases and loans on the
equipment in some situations. As well as for some companies it shows up
on the books better. It can be a detriment as well if you have to pay
property taxes on it though.
It all depends on your market and installation requirements different
products for different needs.

I don't know whether there's a significant advantage to PMP over ePMP
for residential applictions (since I've never used PMP450), but
knowing what is possible with ePMP and UBNT, I don't see how PMP could
ever generate enough additional revenue to pay for itself in our market.

I've always considered mbps to be among the least important
concerns on PTMP, well below packet loss, jitter, QoS features,
manageability, consistency, and reliability. Which is why I'm not
super keen on *any* of the wifi stuff. This seems is like an
argument about whether a Pinto is better than a Fiesta.

One could say "I can sync but I can only get 60 Mbps per sub" (*)
Another person could say "I can't sync but I can get 200+ Mbps
per sub" (*)
(*) under the right conditions
Your market and deployment strats will dictate which is more
important.

I know this isn't an apples to apples comparison, but what
are other's thoughts on these two products? I'm looking
at 5GHz, and I know the AC gear doesn't have the lower
5GHz bands - hopefully they will in the near future.
