Yeah, that ALPU-L130 looks to just be a pretty standard surge suppressor. I'd think a 800-GIGE-SS-HV should be a direct replacement. On Wed, Dec 1, 2021 at 10:40 AM TJ Trout wrote: > 800-GIGE-SS-HV > > On Wed, Dec 1, 2021, 7:08 AM Chuck McCown via AF wrote: > >> From Jim Carlson: >> >> >>

The 3ghz 450B can be configured as point to point radios (one can be set as a PTP master, and the other a PTP slave). I'm not sure if that's true of the other variants or not, but it definitely is for the 450B 3ghz. You do need to setup all the CBRS stuff though (assuming he's in the US). On Wed,
