like I said before.. ask the question directly... no need for the cloak and dagger ...
----------- Frequency-division duplexing (FDD) is a method for establishing a full-duplex communications link that uses two different radio frequencies for transmitter and receiver operation. The transmit direction and receive direction frequencies are separated by a defined frequency offset. In the microwave realm, the primary advantages of this approach are: ----------------- NO THEY ARE NOT FDD. ------------ Time-division duplexing (TDD) is a method for emulating full-duplex communication over a half-duplex communication link. The transmitter and receiver both use the same frequency but transmit and receive traffic is switched in time. The primary advantages of this approach as it applies to microwave communication are: ------------------ YES They are TDD. ( The notation of 1gig aggregate should have give this away ! ) Like all new products, they are making improvements with firmware updates. The published specs are 'conservative'. These are the first radios of their kind in the market place... I think you will need to modify your thinking about them, cause you keep comparing them to the other existing (much more expensive) radios in the market place. Anything else you would like to know ? Feel free to ask...... BTW, FWIW, I don't work for Ignite, nor do I own a piece of the company (would love to buy stock in them if I could). I am on the beta testers of the product... There is something about the tone of your question that is rubbing me the wrong way, my apologies if I am over reacting...... I normally expect the proper professional decorum to be.. ask the question directly, and only if that is not answered or if the answer is not straight forward then it is ok to imply some intentional obfuscation..... not the other way around ! :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet & Telecom 7266 SW 48 Street Miami, FL 33155 Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 Help-desk: (305)663-5518 Option 2 or Email: supp...@snappytelecom.net > From: "Eric Kuhnke" <eric.kuh...@gmail.com> > To: af@afmug.com > Sent: Sunday, April 3, 2016 11:14:08 PM > Subject: Re: [AFMUG] IniteNet 60 GHz radio iperf tests? > I'm not trying to prove or disprove anything, just to compare them with > existing > line rate 60 GHz FDD solutions. > The datasheet says 1Gbps aggregate throughput but nowhere does it say > specifically if they're FDD or TDD in the 60 GHz band: > http://www.ignitenet.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/IgniteNet_MetroLinq.pdf > On Sun, Apr 3, 2016 at 8:01 PM, Faisal Imtiaz < fai...@snappytelecom.net > > wrote: >> What exactly are you looking to prove of dis-prove with such a test ? >> Iperf is iperf, what difference does it make how it is run.... >> Are you asking the question 'How much data I can push thru with these radios >> ?'..... the question has been answered multiple times... >> the radios are (as per specs, 1gig half duplex, thus giving you 500meg x >> 500meg >> performance.) >> The Radio side is using 2ghz wide channel, and the latest firmware is showing >> 700meg x 700meg performance.... >> What is the problem with this ? if you think Ignite is lying about the specs, >> buy a pair, do the testing you like, with pink, blue, or purple laptop of >> your >> choice and if you don't like them, send them back !... or someone will be >> happy >> to buy them from you ... they are in short supply as it is .... >> :) >> Regards. >> Faisal Imtiaz >> Snappy Internet & Telecom >> 7266 SW 48 Street >> Miami, FL 33155 >> Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 >> Help-desk: (305)663-5518 Option 2 or Email: supp...@snappytelecom.net >>> From: "Eric Kuhnke" < eric.kuh...@gmail.com > >>> To: af@afmug.com >>> Sent: Sunday, April 3, 2016 10:03:39 PM >>> Subject: [AFMUG] IniteNet 60 GHz radio iperf tests? >>> Anyone done a simultaneous bidirectional iperf test yet?
