That is the beauty of the West.
Actually in many cases 11GHz outperforms 6GHz out here. Rain fade is low, so multipath fading is the bigger concern. Once you hit Central USA (say East of the Rockies) rain fade increases to the point that is no longer true most of the time. *************************************************************************** Daniel White - Managing Director SAF North America LLC Cell: +1 (303) 746-3590 daniel.wh...@saftehnika.com <mailto:daniel.wh...@saftehnika.com> Skype: danieldwhite Social: LinkedIn <http://www.linkedin.com/in/danielwhite84> *************************************************************************** From: Af [mailto:af-boun...@afmug.com] On Behalf Of Josh Luthman Sent: Thursday, June 4, 2015 9:22 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Cambium LinkPlanner and Licensed Frequencies 29 miles and 4 footers?

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
