Well, I've seen mine, more than once, decide 'hey, I'll use an 80 mhz channel, despite that giant 20mhz wide spike, right in the middle, caused by the PTP600 that's sitting on the same tower! Yay!' Then the PTP600 goes to crap.

Auto everything is a great Idea. With two distinct channels they even have the chance to test a channel without dropping the link.

'auto everything' mode makes what I would consider to be some questionable choices, for example. Also, zero SNMP support at this point, which makes things impossible to monitor/diagnose after the fact. We're eagerly looking forward to the next firmware release, which supposedly will enable SNMP and same-tower coordination.

As for mixing it with Cambium gear, that's a tough one. Because there is no interoperability with GPS between manufacturers, you have to rely on normal isolation methods. You probably want to keep them at least 10 apart or more. On the one tower where I was concerned about the issue and another location where I have a lot of 5GHz radios, Ubiquiti, and others on the same roof, I'm using the Jirous dishes with the built-in shrouds and then using the B5c's. I don't have any comparison to the B5 in that situation, I just planned for the worst case scenario. I have another colleague that is using the B5c's with Ubiquiti antennas with Ubiquiti shroud on the same roof because he needed a 34dBi antenna and it's shooting 32 miles. He couldn't get enough throughput out of the AF5x radios so he swapped to the Mimosa and he is getting 2-3 times more throughput, about 200Mbps.
