licensed radios, it’s not just an antenna change. And different sub bands might require different diplexers. From: AF On Behalf Of Dev Sent: Thursday, April 2, 2020 4:14 PM To: AnimalFarm Microwave Users Group Subject: Re: [AFMUG] 5.8 -> 6GHz equipment software upgrade only? I notice ot

I notice other licensed backhaul vendor radios are available in wide ranges of frequencies, like the Cambium PTP 820C in 6-38GHz range, do they just swap external antennas for best propagation characteristics, or do they also swap RF sections of the radios themselves? I guess the question real

This is for the proposed 1200 MHz FCC Chair Pai is pushing for in 6Ghz, so higher than 5.9, wouldn’t the antenna need to change for best transmission characteristics the further it pushes into 6, or will propagation models still be good with existing gear? > On Apr 2, 2020, at 1:55 PM, TJ Trout

Don’t confuse the 5850-5895 which is available now with a STA with the 6Ghz proposal that covers 6 to just over 7Ghz. The Cambium (and likely Ubiquiti) UNI-III 5.8 equipment will work in the STA frequencies. The 6Ghz proposal is well outside of the design frequencies for the UNI-III band and

cambium yes, ubnt yes but will they release a firmware update?? maybe in a few weeks? ugh. On Thu, Apr 2, 2020 at 1:50 PM Dev wrote: > Will existing Cambium/UBNT 5.8GHz equipment work if the 6GHz unlicensed > band opens up with a software upgrade in the field, or will new hardware be > needed. Q

Will existing Cambium/UBNT 5.8GHz equipment work if the 6GHz unlicensed band opens up with a software upgrade in the field, or will new hardware be needed. Question from Congress critter. -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
