Trango is definitley in the lead at this point as I
agree with you. The Proxim products are pretty price competitive as well
and actually provide higher bandwidth capabilites depending on the
distance.

If space is an issue,
then you should look at the Trango. We were originally looking at the
Canopy for our first backhaul, but when we found the Trango for half the
price, we went with it and have been very happy with it. The Tranzeo
that we just ordered is an all-in-one if you are only going up to 5 miles, but
we ordered the 10 mile kit which comes with large dishes. Just my .02
worth. J

I agree with the pricing opinion
you give on the Canopy stuff. My debate in 5.8 is either Canopy,
Proxim, or Trango. I will be looking at Tranzeo also as it was
mentioned in an earlier reply. I am limited to space restrictions at the
rmote tower so size of the gear is an issue. POE and outdoor capability
(in Minnesota) is a must.
Thanks for your input. I
have researched mfg's and specs but getting hands on feedback from WISP's
doing it is golden info. Thanks again.

Well as for backhaul I would not
recommend SmartBridges equipment if you = are going to plan on having 20
or more users connected through that = backhaul. We are a medium
sized WISP and have found that after about 20 = users (bridges) connected
through APpo's and things started to fall = apart. Also you have to
deal with extra devices in the 2.4ghz spectrum = to interfere with
you.
We had 3 such senerios setup on our networks to seperate remote
sites = and have since changed them to 5.7ghz Motorola Canopy equipment.
=20
I am excited to say that since switching the equipment, we have
had more than 30 days uptime without rebooting the device. And exceptional
performance even during the Welchia / Blaster network storms.
Sure
the Motorola Canopy stuff is over priced but for 5 nine's reliability it is
your only option.
Be sure to let me know if you have additional
questions about the 5.7 Motorola Canopy Backhaul
Units.
Here is a little info on our
backhauls.
We worked a little
extra to get Line of Site however Motorola claims this system will work up
to 20 miles (reflectors and both ends) without LOS.

I would be
interested to know what any of you are using backhauls between
towers. I am considering 5.8. Ideas and general info,
manufacturers, and model info would be greatly
appreciated.
