I put my house on 3.6 450. SM+reflector 40' up my tower. One very large
maple tree about 100 feet away directly in the path. The AP is almost
exactly a mile away at 230 feet on a regular Cambium "90" degree sector.
I have about -57dBm. I get about -65dBm when the tree is wet. I get
8X/8X in both cases. Uplink might drop to 6X sometimes. Bare SM only got
about -72 and I said screw that.

We have telrad lte on a few towers, and we did a side by side
comparison with telrad and canopy.
Cambium 450 3.65ghz can go thru a tree or two at close range (less
than 1 mile). But it only modulates at 1x mimo-a
Telrad lte is able to blast thru a thicket of trees no problem.
We've been decommissioning our 450 3.65ghz and replacing with telrad.

Sean,
You have the Compact wimax right? I'm curious how you'd rate that
side by side with the PMP450 in 3.65.
Cambium sales said the Compact would give you better NLOS, but
where the 450 connected it would be faster. Would you say that
was accurate?
Thanks,
Adam
Nothing really. We tried a few and found either a bare SM or
SM+dish was the best solution. Everything else was a PITA because
the pig tails that come with the SM are too short, so you either
need to do surgery and replace the cables or put the SM in an odd
location/orientation to get it connected (if you can find one)
