I don't think anyone has a higher CPE limit in 60 GHz.

Their pricing isn’t terrible, and I’m going to be buying at least some Ignitenet for this project. I was just hoping for some less expensive stuff I can use for customers on the lower plans.

It’s PTMP that it is cost prohibitive I think.

The average CPE cost is much less than the Ignitenet radios. I’m not running fiber, which is also cost prohibitive without deep pockets. A good ROI for a WISP is 6-12 months. For fiber it’s 5-6 years. The reason being you’ll get many more service calls with wireless, as well as less consistent speeds. Fiber is solid and you don’t have to replace as many electronics as often. So I’m not sure why you laugh when I say Ignitenet is cost prohibitive.
