  With the Cambium PMP450 I monitor the framelink utilization via SNMP to 
determine if an AP is oversubscribed or not. I have 25 subs on this ap and it 
peaks at about 25% utilization on the downlink every night. Customers are a mix 
of 1.5Meg / 3.0Meg / 6Meg download with up to 20mbps bursting. At this rate I 
would safely say I could put 75 subscribers on this AP but it really is 
dependent on who your customers are. I have a similar AP only serving 15 
customers that will hit 50% utilization sometimes. Apparently the customers in 
that area must watch more Netflix, lol.

450m will do 400 Mbps in 20mhz channel but only if users are spread out
through all 14 beams. If you see all the users in one beam, the capacity
won't be that high.

I think there are a couple of products geared towards high throughput to 
a small number of stations.


Radwin Jet is supposed to do 750mbps using 80mhz...or something like 
that.


Knowing Radwinit's probably an 802.11ac chipset under the hood.
