This is no longer true.. Check out the EtherHaul-2500’s .. I offers the same output power as the Bridgewave units.

It depends on how far you're trying to go and your rain zone/rain rate in mm/hour. Of course there is serious rain fade, it's 80 GHz. You just have to engineer the link right.

Stability of Hardware? There is no planning tool on their website, no manual, no firmware download site. Looks like you’ve to pay even for SW-Fixes?
