Seriously!? It doesn't need it. The have an electronic, software
controlled filter built into the radio. The only thing you'd be doing
with external fixed bandpass filters is shaping the Tx output. The 450
radios have a pretty damn clean Tx signal as is, which is one reason why
you can stack channels with zero guard band.

Has anyone experimented with inserting a notch filter on a 450i 900
AP, for a specific 7 MHz?
All of the options I can find are for a wider 900 band, more than a
specific 7-10 MHz section, and cost $150+ a piece, so you're adding
$300 and some jumpers and 0.5dB insertion loss.

Dude, there's interference everywhere in the 900 band. Cordless
phones, baby monitors, security systems, smart meters, SCADA.. and
the list goes on.

If you do 6 sectors, you're using the entire band and have
nowhere to go when one or two sectors is experiencing
interference. Or you have to drop down to 5MHz channel
bandwidth which sucks. This is why we do 4x90 clusters. Two
channels with wiggle room. Of course that's FSK's 8MHz channel
width. I think a lot of people have found that 7MHz on the
450i works best.

Well, if you want small... there's these, I'm not sure I'd
want to try doing channel re-use with them though.

I’m specifically interested in the 900Mhz, I thought that
was the 450i, I didn’t know it covered 5.8GHz also. I
also need maximum bandwidth off the tower although I don’t
know tower or other mounting locations yet to determine if
I need 360 degrees. I actually have more problems with
aesthetics and those antennas are going to be an issue due
to the size. Right now I’m interested in throughput per
antenna and what kind of throughput to expect with GPS.

If you guys are talking about the 900mhz 450i 65 degree.
Straight from the horse’s mouth is the 65 and the 90 are
the same antenna. Just more role off to achieve the 90. I
have tested it outside of the 65 degree but within the 90.
I was not happy with the results. One customer had to be
put back onto FSK yesterday until we can get another AP up
or a true 90 degree. Just would not modulate up and
finally dropped off completely.

I looked at the 450i and noticed the sector antenna is 65
degrees. Does that mean a typical tower installation uses
6 antennas? In that scenario, I’m assuming 10MHz channels
if there is no interference. In that scenario, what is
the available bandwidth per AP assuming most users get
pretty good signal. Or is there a better way to deploy
the product?
