Yes, that's frustrating. ePMP only supports 2.5ms @ 20MHz for timing
with FSK. It's obvious that they don't want to hurt 450 sales,
especially now with the ePMP 2k closing the performance gap. I don't
want ePMP-450 sync to co-locate them. I want it to be able to sync
nearby ePMP APs at micro-POPs, where I typically run a 10MHz, with
larger sites that have 450 clusters. We're already running into this.
I've often wondered if they could make their new 5GHz wideband SoC-based
SMs speak ePMP TDD in addition to the regular 450 OFDM. Imagine being
able to upgrade a site from ePMP to 450i or 450m and never have to touch
the SMs. I often dream of parallel universes where these things are
possible. And then I wake up. :(

I can't use EPMP for microsites because it won't sync with my 450
network. Plus I don't want a mixed and matched network. The 450
interface is better, has a lot of features I am using such as AP
downlink utilization %. Epmp just isn't for me.

Why not just go EPMP for the light or small cell startup? Thats
what application I would use it for. I know that it only comes in
2 flavors of band but thats where planning and design comes in.
Everything Else deserves scale ability and high capacity for
denser and larger area of coverage. (450i/M)
Price point is great on the EPMP line also. Lovin the E500/E400
series for high capacity indoor solutions. The E500 make a great
outdoor market coverage AP. For example we deploy these at out
Farmers Market and I only used one AP and a 450 sub to bring the
40Mb connection to it.
The vendors use it for their Square and simple wifi offload. We
have 2 at the Arena at our local Fairgrounds and the vendors for
the Rodeo absolutely loved it and asked how
they get such great service at their house LOL. The coolest part
is that the APs are at opposite ends of the arena and use mesh to
connect. They are positioned so they look under the bleachers
where the vendors are. We kill 2 birds with one stone because
folks in the bleachers can connect with limited guest access.
Which we got about 25 new customers off that one event..
LOVE IT

I second that! with no 450L right now this is a huge problem on
justifying smaller sites...

Dear Matt, we need a 450i Lite AP.

Regarding the timing port, it’s just a wiring change to the
RJ-45 connector.
You can see this explained here:

Yeah, 48v instead of 24v... 450i still uses the normal sync
over power (it's the 450m that changed that), but they did
replace the old timing port with the rj45 aux port, so I'm
not sure what needs to be done to make timing port stuff work.

the 450 stinger to be discontinued at the same time.

replace your 450s with 450i or m.. 450i Is approx
same price point as 450 in AP world

FYI, I heard today that the regular 450 APs are
no longer available, at least in 5GHz. So be
prepared. We lost some 450 and 450i APs over the
nice stormy weekend. I hate my life.
