I would expect a GigE radio to haul 9000+ byte frames, but you never
know. So yeah, it needs to be on datasheets.

Hi,
Just to be official about is, all airFIber radios support
transport of Jumbo packets sizes of 9000+ bytes. The currently
supported packet size is 9600. There is no configuration required
- they just do it.
I am an Ubiquiti employee :)

I think you're thinking about this too hard, or maybe I
wasn't explicit enough. Typing from a phone causes that.
Yes, I'm staying if you are building the type of network
where you have identified a large MTU is desirable on the
L2 path, you want everything to be as high as possible,
and you will be limited by the devices smallest MTU on the
path.

no, it doesn't, only if you are building L2 networks
bridged between multiple locations. It's perfectly
fine to have a router-to-router OSPF /30 link that is
carried across a PTP system with a 1600 byte MTU
(older Bridgewave radios for instance), then another
separate set of OSPF interfaces onwards from that same
router, to another router, over a 9000 byte MTU radio
bridge. Or whatever.

MTU needs to be consistent on the entirety of the

AirFiber supports 9600 MTU since 1.1 FW.

I agree, was just looking for that a week ago too.
I’m still unclear.
My backbone is generally set for 9000+ MTU.
Do I need to change my Mikrotik Ethernet ports
attached to the Air Fiber units to a specific MTU?

oh yeah, and there is no mention of MTU
capabilities for any model of airfiber in the
most recent pdf datasheet either:
https://dl.ubnt.com/datasheets/airfiber/airFiber_DS.pdf
<https://dl.ubnt.com/datasheets/airfiber/airFiber_DS.pdf>
Is that not a basic datasheet thing to list?
Particularly for PTP bridge radios? I know it
is for every serious PTP radio I've seen from
almost every other manufacturer.

Now, I know this, and everyone on the list
knows this, because we've been using the
AF24 for years. We know we can use it with
either 1600 or 9000 byte MTU.
But I find it amazing that there is no
mention anywhere of max MTU (or MTU
settings/capabilities in general) anywhere
whatsoever in the ubnt AF24 users manual:
https://dl.ubnt.com/guides/airfiber/airFiber_AF24_UG.pdf
<https://dl.ubnt.com/guides/airfiber/airFiber_AF24_UG.pdf>
ctrl-f for "mtu"... nothing.
People should not be required to google
"af24 mtu 9000" and trawl through forum
posts from non-ubnt-employee third parties
on the ubnt forum to know if a PTP bridge
product is going to work for a particular
application or not. Same goes for the
AF11FX and AF24HD.
