The small MTU immediately removes it from contention for certain small/medium business last mile connections (sites that are too small for their own PTP link, but more valuable in $$$/mo than a residential user). This is because 1480 makes it impossible to do MPLS. There are all kinds of things

Re: [AFMUG] 450M

Have they said anything about a new cheaper sm that does the entire 5ghz band and gb ethernet, otherwise a 450i is still going to be needed to take advantage of that 500mb, even mu-mimo on 2 sms can only do 200mb? not 500mb right? I think aaron gave a hint a few weeks back about a new sm.

Yup, I believe the B11 is ac based. The AF will do true FDD so you can license standard coordinated channel pairs. And to top it off, they went the Exalt path with field replaceable diplexers. And looks like you can reverse the diplexer for high or low side. The N connector thing is kinda

Not sure why you only have 40 Mbps capacity, are you talking 10 MHz channels? Anyway, sounds like it uses MU-MIMO and beamforming and works best in a dense environment, I assume because then you have lots of busy SMs throughout the sector and it can aim at several at once. If you have 10 SMs
