Right but you also need to specific capacity, which is a common error I see in LinkPlanner files sent to me.
I suspect we are not comparing 1024QAM modulation to 1024QAM modulation. Josh is also right. 6GHz and 11GHz have uptime requirements that have to be met along with utilization requirements. *************************************************************************** Daniel White - Managing Director SAF North America LLC Cell: +1 (303) 746-3590 [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Skype: danieldwhite Social: LinkedIn <http://www.linkedin.com/in/danielwhite84> *************************************************************************** From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rory McCann Sent: Thursday, June 4, 2015 7:10 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Cambium LinkPlanner and Licensed Frequencies You can specify channel size and 1+0, 2+0 etc in the link description. Also LinkPlanner lists the minimum uptime threshold and if you fail to meet it the link becomes red.

I guess two 80s for that kind of throughput? 27 miles is going to be 6 footers in 6 GHz. You need a certain threshold of uptime for licenses.

I have a couple of exisitng 5GHz links I'm looking at replacing with a licensed solution - one of which is about 27 miles. According to LinkPlanner this shot should be no problem (granted not with more than 3 9s of uptime, which is fine considering I have redundancy via another path) using 3 foot dishes, but the SAF engineers are telling me my only option is 6GHz with 6 foot dishes using the same parameters. The best the engineers at SAF could promise was about 150Mbps on Integra, whereas according to LinkPlanner I can get over 800Mbps using an 820s. Is LinkPlanner this far off, or are there some special knobs I need to turn to get real-world results? Or is Cambium somehow that much superior to the other products out there? -- Rory McCann MKAP Technology Solutions Web: www.mkap.net <http://www.mkap.net> --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
