As long as it has good line of site and 5.8ghz is clean enough, it should work fine. According to the built in link calculator, it should be able to do 149.76Mbps using 20mhz channels at 13 miles... if you need more than that, you can use wider channels, but that's going to be using pretty much the whole 5.8ghz band.

AF5 won't work in 5150. DFS won't reach that far, so you have to use 5.8. For areas over -88 noise it probably won't work well. If noise permits, a 10 MHz or 20 MHz channel will give you 100/100. If you can make 8x modulation, 10 MHz should be fine. For each lower modulation, you'll need the next bigger channel (roughly). ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions http://www.ics-il.com [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/ICSIL>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/googleicon.png]<https://plus.google.com/+IntelligentComputingSolutionsDeKalb>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/linkedinicon.png]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/intelligent-computing-solutions>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/twittericon.png]<https://twitter.com/ICSIL> ________________________________ From: "Robert Haas" <rob-li...@bpsnetworks.com> To: "ubnt users" <ubnt_users@wispa.org> Sent: Monday, December 1, 2014 11:25:27 AM Subject: [Ubnt_users] AF5 distance Would an AF5 be able to supply 150/150 (true throughput) @ 13mi? We have a customer requesting a 100/100 connection who is 5 miles from one of our tower sites. Our site is currently 3 hops from any of our fiber fed tower sites. With some redesign work and a mile or two of fiber I can shorten that to a single 13 Mile hop but I’m wondering if I can use an AF 5 for that hop and get the needed throughput.
