Well hell, that is almost TMI. I expected as such from this band. Sounds like if they increase the sensitivity of the switchover mechanism it would be a contender.

It generally holds up during torrential down pours. Random fog events will cause it to become trashed. The link is .6 miles. I expected it to fade from time to time. The problem for me is the fail over does not happen properly. It's a gosh darn USB dongle attached to a reflector dish. Don't expect too much out of it.

We lose our IN link every time it rains. And the 5GHz does not fail over seemleasly at all. There is packet loss and high pings until the 60GHz finally dies. Then it sometimes flips.

Not to say that it doesn’t contribute at all to fade, but at 300 meters you’d probably only ever go down if Poseiden himself took offense to your client. http://windowsil.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/03/atm_absorption.gif Chris Wright Network Administrator From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Adam Moffett Sent: Thursday, October 19, 2017 1:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] IgniteNet Metrolinq This link would be just under 300 meters.

I just read an article claiming that the atmospheric attenuation at 60ghz is so great that at any range where 60ghz will operate the rain fade is insignificant. ------ Original Message ------ From: "Carl Peterson" <[email protected]> To: "[email protected]" <[email protected]> Sent: 10/19/2017 2:58:56 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] IgniteNet Metrolinq Yes, and the LR brackets.

Very happy with them. The mounts they come with are trash. Get the “long range” brackets and alignment scope.
