Excellent point. If you have a big sector, you won't be able to
distinguish where the noise is coming from. If you have beam steering,
you may be able to block out different frequencies in different directions.
The real trick would be the ability to use frequency A in sub-sector A,
and frequency B in sub-sector B, and so on.

Yeah, true... it certainly wouldn't hurt. Also, if all of the noise
isn't actually coming from the same location, you could potentially
find a clean channel using beam steering.

Ok, I just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing some sort of RF
Magic contained within the EPMP2000.

Yep... if the interference wasn't in the same direction as the
customer, beam steering would help you, but I don't see that
it'd do much in this case.

a blind AP is a blind AP no matter how you cut it, if the
interference is coming in from the same direction as the sm,
not alot you can do. with -50 floor that sector is
effectively not there. can you go lower with the sector and
hope ground clutter will mitigate the campus interference to
a point you can get a reasonable snr. compared to what you
have right now hin dropping to a -70 if you can get clutter
to -80 is better,
but if thats the floor, youre better served to get a tight
shielded directional antenna rather than a sector and do ptp
beamsteering is focusing energy at the subscriber more than
anything isnt it?

If the interference is on the subscriber end, it should
affect the downstream traffic. Interference on the AP
side (which you don't seem to be having) would affect he
upstream.
Something else is going on.

So the EPMP2000 with beam steering on the upstream
side. If you have a customer that is in line with
the source of the Interference, they're still hosed
right? The AP still wont' be able to hear them over
the noise.
I have a EPMP sector with a single customer on it
and the AP is running about -50 noise across the
entire band (5.1 and 5.7) I think the source of the
interference is a close by corporate campus that's
probably flooded with 5ghz wifi, and this customer
is directly in between the tower and the campus. I
can only get MCS level 1 on the upstream side with a
receive level of -48. EPMP2000 would have no effect
in this scenario, right?
