They are certified as a point-to-point device. You are allowed
more ERIP doing point to point. See:
15.247(b)(4)(i) Systems operating in the 2400-2483.5 MHz
band that are used exclusively for fixed, point-to-point
operations may employ transmitting antennas with directional
gain greater than 6 dBi provided the maximum peak output
power of the intentional radiator is reduced by 1 dB for
every 3 dB that the directional gain of the antenna exceeds
6 dBi.
