Hello Albert, The bands often generally called "3.5" actually is somewhat generic for a wide range of band, around 2.6-4.2 that is licensed per market with very diffedrent rules around the world. Differing rules relate to channel width, power, type modulation, FDD or TDD, etc. This means that building for these bands can be challenging, so few vendors build for them, or if they do, they only build for more common ranges. In other words, it is expensive to build and type quality per market all the variations (we have literally hundreds of part numbers that relate to "3.5").
We are one of those few that build for (and have sold several hundred thousand units) many band ranges. You mention BreezeACCESS as being pricey. In fact, in 3.5, it is about the lowest cost platform on the market, which is why we have not only larger carriers using it, but smaller ISPs as well. Also, I do not know about which 3.5 of ours your refer. BreezeACCESS in 3.5GHz actually has 2 modulation versions, spread spectrum frequency hopping and NLOS OFDM, with the OFDM version being a bit more expensive. If these options are not possible for you, you may want to look on e-Bay for product. Lots of 3.5 companies (I am talking about vendors) have gone away and there is likely second hand product that can be found as a result. Just be aware of the risks of using product that cannot be returned, replaced, or supported. Kind regards, Patrick J. Leary Chief Evangelist, Alvarion, Inc.
