some clarifications would be worthy to point out and note... 1) With Mimosa A5's micro-pops, folks are seeing 200meg to 600meg aggregate on a per client basis. 2) This would be on a 80mhz channel (A5-14 has Quamni Circular polarity antenna), and can easily deal with a high noise floor (-60). 3) In the compatibility mode (Wifi) they will accept clients with 20mhz, 40mhz & 80mhz channels at the same time.
