Our AF11 link is doing 500Mbps, but I haven't gotten it working at more than 256QAM (it's right at the edge of where 1024QAM should work and still needs to be fine tuned, so hopefully I'll be able to get it there), so they should get to 600ish with 1024QAM. If I remember right, they claim somewhere around 650mbps at full modulation, but in my experience any airfiber will typically max out at about 90% of their stated capacity.

UBNT's top claim is 1.2+ gbps. Cut that in half for single direction peak you get 600. However one of their fanboys was posting that he was getting ~500 megabit on his link. It's entirely possible that others have gotten closer to the 600 number as I don't frequent their propaganda (forum where fan boys rejoice). However, that's MIMO. 256 QAM traditional radios manage more than 250 megabits per polarity. ----- 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> Midwest Internet Exchange<http://www.midwest-ix.com/> [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/mdwestix>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/linkedinicon.png]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/midwest-internet-exchange>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/twittericon.png]<https://twitter.com/mdwestix> The Brothers WISP<http://www.thebrotherswisp.com/> [http://www.ics-il.com/images/fbicon.png]<https://www.facebook.com/thebrotherswisp>[http://www.ics-il.com/images/youtubeicon.png]<https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXSdfxQv7SpoRQYNyLwntZg> ________________________________ From: "Nate Burke" <n...@blastcomm.com> To: "Ubiquiti Users Group" <ubnt_users@wispa.org> Sent: Monday, April 17, 2017 7:46:46 AM Subject: Re: [Ubnt_users] 4096 QAM (was: 24Ghz link Airfiber) I think I've seen you make this claim a few times, but I don't recall seeing it from anyone else. Is this your real world experience, or where is this info coming from? Any test data to look at? Test equipment used , latency, packet loss, signal levels, PCN expectations? Based on Knowing the guys on the Airfiber team, I would trust their throughput claims over normal UBNT Products.

They claim 1.3 gig each direction on 56MHZ channel. 799 per radio, ($1600/pair) plus antennas puts the whole link in the $3000 range with what looks like outstanding performance for the price. I am now officially considering UBNT as a possible vendor for three links I need to do in the next few months.
