It absolutely does perform worse on the same link, we just helped a
friend move an entire site from UBNT to epmp to make use of the sync
capabilities. We actually had to transfer about 15% of the customers to
900 because they would not work at all on epmp.

or is it maybe just differences in how they calculate signal levels?
It doesn't make any sense that two different radios running on the
same frequency putting the same amount of power into the same antennas
would give significantly different signal levels...
The closest thing I've done to a comparison was playing with a Force
200 2.4ghz in wifi mode... there didn't seem to be a significant
difference between it and a PowerBeam connecting to the same AP.

hmm, i will check into that. Pretty sure with ubnt we're using
kp performance. With epmp, i think it is bundled antennas...

Jay, I suspect the difference you are seeing may be mainly
in the antennas. 2.4 GHz from any vendor should penetrate
the same, the radio waves don’t care what brand radio
launched them. And I think the difference between the
platforms will be most evident in low interference
environment where they can achieve their full modulation
and throughput. With low SNR, I think it’s kind of like
arguing Ferrari vs Porsche for off road racing, neither
will be able to show off its capabilities. Receiver
sensitivity and bits/sec/Hz won’t matter.

Also interested in interference rejection of the pmp450 -
is there any (in 2.4)
we are getting better foliage penetration with ubnt 2.4
than epmp 2.4 - - and from the performance of
the epmp 2.4 i wish wish wish it penetrated better!

We have mostly PMP100 and PMP450 deployed. Some
Ubiquiti we tried and
some we inherited as well. Have some ePMP we have
tested but so far
have not deployed more then couple test links.
For those who have tried both ePMP and PMP450 what are
the differences
you have seen in performance? Interference tolerance
among others?
For those that have gone with PMP450 over ePMP what
was the reasoning?
