It was discussed somewhere recently, possibly from the Cambium community site. Changing from 2.5 to 5ms cuts the number of control slots in half. That could explain your perceived loss in overall throughput, i.e. not enough control slots.

And then if you gain say 10% more bandwidth by going to 5ms, then have to increase control slots, you probably end up with zero gain in throughput and double the latency. So what's the point. If you had to synchronize with a wimax system, that's about the only benefit.

Hey folks.

Has anyone experimented with 5ms frame on pmp450 or the 450i? Last couple of times I tried it, it seemed like overall throughput on the AP was slightly worse than on 2.5ms, even though radio to radio link tests were higher.
