Why not? You can still use a 3rd party CPE.....but if you're bringing a
Baicells (or whatever) eNB into the mix then you'll need a separate EPC
for that.
This was mentioned on the Telrad WISPA list a couple of weeks ago.

Why would they do that. That is one of their selling points, being
standards based???

You can use the CPE's in between them as far as I understand.
What changed with Telrad in the newest release is you can't add a
non-Telrad base station to their EPC....which in turn means you can't
use their system to authenticate/authorize any CPE connected to that
non-Telrad BS.
Ie: Telrad EPC requires Telrad BS, but other CPE are ok to use.

I believe Telrad did something to break interoperability "recently".

Is Telrad and Baicells interoperable? Do cpes of both work with both
BS? Or is the decision for one of them final? I see pricing of
baicells listed by distributors so I guess they are cheaper than
Telrad.

We're wrestling with the same question here.
M365 is inconsistent.
We're testing Telrad LTE. It's too soon to say much though.

At the moment there are the following options:
TDD LTE (Baicells / Telrad / Huawei)
PMP450 (Cambium)
WiMAX (Cambium/Purewave/Telrad)
UBNT M365 (Ubiquity)
WiMAX and UBNT do not have any development/future. TDD-LTE claims
good NLOS capabilities. PMP450 claims higher sector capacity with LOS
(QAM256). LTE claims Standards compatibility while there are not much
options to select between. Baicell seem to bring LTE costs down to
the Level of PMP450 while both are way above the level of wifi-based
5GHz systems. Baicell is in a testing/beta stage phase. PMP450 may
increase performance/NLOS capability with cnMedusa next year. Not
seen any announcements where TDD-LTE implementations are heading to
next year.
We’re still running WiMAX for NLOS as there is no clear path where to
go
