We have been trying to use UBNT Nanos for quite a while in trailer parks and other ¼ to ½ mile LoS links. The issues we are finding is that the dang things just stop. The first time we have to do a truck roll to reset the unit, or replace it, it would be cheaper to buy a MT solution.

I need to add a second AP on a tower and need help. How far apart must the 90 degree sector antenna be placed? Can they be the same polarity? Can I run LMR-400 to them about 70ft? Anything else I should consider? Thanx NGL

Before smartmeters (BC) we had 3 integrated 900's on the same tower at 906, 914, and 930 without issue. It's really about your available spectrum. You need a minimum of 9MHz spacing. 75'of cable should not be a problem other than loss is loss. I would put the AP on the back of the antenna

Dunno, but since UBNT now has Chuck from Motorola on board (and Motorola does not), I would not be surprised to see some interesting things down the road. Perhaps some sort of synch. If that were added, UBNT would seriously have a product that could come close to the things we like about Canopy.
