I agree with this assessment Jon.  There are plenty of other products that can 
get you whatever BW you need (cheaper) with adaptive.  If you are looking at 
AirFiber 5x, you are almost definitely doing that for the Sync of 2 or more 
links off a tower.  That’s the niche of the product as far as I see it.  We 
have 5 links on order and are excited about hanging them

You can't 'stack' channels on top of each other with non-sync products (run the 
spectrum analysis). When you add sync, you can stack and overlap. If your going 
to venture into AirFiber, your already past the 'small potatoes' category IMO 
and you probably need to upgrade a good 2-3 links...

Hrm. It's doing a bit over 10Mbps/1MHz (AF5). Rumored 1024QAM. GPS sync, 
less than 24W. Better noise immunity than even AirPrism (although it is 
exceptionally good) in initial testing. Connectorized...

I think it is more spectrally effiecient to run these radios in adaptive mode 
and use a smaller channel width than running them in 50/50 and running wider 
channels! Who the heck has backhauls running at symmetrical speeds anyway? 



Sync isn't for every application...

flip a link from 75/25 to 25/75 (or whatever options

e.g. config apply or reboot makes the radio(s) not come

Re: [AFMUG] quick Air Fiber 5X question

2015-03-12 Thread Kurt Fankhauser
I think it is more spectrally effiecient to run these radios in adaptive
mode and use a smaller channel width than running them in 50/50 and running
wider channels! Who the heck has backhauls running at symmetrical speeds
anyway?

Sync isn't for every application...

  Josh, I think you're missing something. If you do rings and a link
 goes down, more traffic starts going the other direction, or reverses

 want to have to flip a link from 75/25 to 25/75 (or whatever options there
 are). A link goes down, traffic changes and I do not want to take down yet
 another link to fix perhaps a temporary issue. OR cause a much larger
 permanent issue, e.g. config apply or reboot makes the radio(s) not come
 back up.

 And AFAIK, the AF5X isn't capable of FDD. It's not your regular
 airFiber with two radios, or separate Tx and Rx antennas, or whatever it 
 is.

Re: [AFMUG] quick Air Fiber 5X question

2015-03-12 Thread Jon Langeler
You can't 'stack' channels on top of each other with non-sync products (run the 
spectrum analysis). When you add sync, you can stack and overlap. If your going 
to venture into AirFiber, your already past the 'small potatoes' category IMO 
and you probably need to upgrade a good 2-3 links...

It really depends on the situation... there are certainly going to be cases
where an adaptive mode makes sense, but I really expect that we're going to
want to be using sync on these more often than not.

I would really like the option of dynamic WITHOUT SYNC. That way the link can 
acheive near maximum throughput no matter which way traffic is flowing. I 
typically see a 90/10 download to upload ratio and sometimes a main backhaul 
might go down and traffic will re-route through a path in the network thats 
going backwards then...

 There are no plans for airFiber dynamic framing at the moment. It could be

 could make this and meet DFS rules for those bands... Is there a need for
