Hi all, I'll chime in here to clarify the point regarding TX Power.
Trango offers high power as a standard feature, and even higher power
You got off cheap! Trango charged me $5000 to tell me we fried the
replacement ODU unit they sent while repairing our IDU for a coffee
spill. (Housed in a rack in our data center 10 ft in the air.)

Yikes,
That doesn’t sound good from DragonWave’s perspective. At $5k, that is nearly
the cost for the entire radio path, (not counting antennas, PONE, etc) Can’t
imagine why they would charge such a price. Were

Can anyone help me out? We are in the process of deciding which company

Trango has more tx power and rx sensitivity, thus their antennas are
smaller, which is a plus. I would like to know if anyone has any
experiences with
All things equal, SAF has a 5 year warranty and fantastic tech
support. We have both Trango and SAF in our network and now all new
links are SAF exclusively.

I have 3 SAF links...operating just fine. I know of others that have a lot
of Trango links...operating just fine. I don't think you could go wrong
with either one.

Feature key is NOT required on Trango for more power. All the radios are at
full power regardless of the license key.

I'm curious about that as well... I know weight is a big thing for
Gino due to shipping... but I'm not sure I would be willing to give up
the higher output and better receive levels for a couple extra pounds.

I don't really care about weight either (though that does tend to show a
better product in ATX power supplies).
I am concerned about the wattage consumption and price.

I don't understand, SAF has a standard power version and a high power
version. Cost difference isn't much.

When I have priced them before, SAF was the same price as Trango with
their standard power... but when you increase to High Power then it's
more expensive.
And SAF's 5 year warranty is very cool... the bigger question with this
type of radio is how quickly can they repair/replace the unit? I
That is where I am as well. Just stay working is the reason I am moving
my most important ptp links to licensed. I have done the Ubnt and

thus licensed. Thanks for all the great info. It is helping greatly.
For those
I'd rather the radio just stay working...

Why are you doing all new links with SAF is the question being asked here
I've had to do an RMA with SAF due to a Lightning Event. Unfortunately,
the radio has to go to Latvia for repairs. The turn around was about 2
weeks. I have also done an advanced replacement RMA that took 2 days.
Now, we buy extra units instead of advanced replacement.

HI,
I have spoken to several other WISP's and when they actually compare the
SAME radio from SAF to Trango (same power, same license keys, same
dishes, etc.) then Trango is 99% of the time less expensive. Yes, it
only has a 2 year warranty compared to 5 years, but that's the only
difference.

I beg to differ, they have a new higher power option
up like hotcakes if we could do 250mbps for $5k, installed. But, then, so
would everyone else.
