me too. Growth amongst the Ganaraska Forests here in the "Rolling Hills
of Northumberland County" is starting to demand a "nlos" solution.
And we like to use off the shelf industry standard equipment, no
proprietary equipment is our motto - We paid $45,000 dollars for it and
still have the proof. :-)
Apparently Tranzeo is Beta Testing also.
You have a Good Day now,

Tony,
I hope so. However, I am running out of time. Let me give you a
little background.
I have a 2.4GHz system running that covers most of my county. It is a
mixture of 802.11 and TurboCell. The TurboCell provides back haul and
service for long range clients, (>3 miles), or for NLoS clients at
short range. I use the 802.11 for short range, LoS clients (<3 miles).
This has worked well for us in the past, but, the increasing bandwidth
demands are overloading our TurboCell back hauls, increasing noise
levels are decreasing the usable range of our 802.11 AP's, (in one
area we no longer deploy 802.11 CPE's at all, just TurboCell).
I am now deploying a 5.8GHz Netstream system to replace my TurboCell
back hauls. I am also looking into polled systems on 2.4GHz to
replace my TurboCell CPE's and AP's. Netstream is my most likely
choice here as well, but I am open to other polled systems on 2.4GHz
as well.
I have one PtP link using TurboCell with RF Linx 915UDC units to get
thru a severe NLoS for a single user. This was a very expensive
deployment and the average customer would not pay for it. I tested
several 900MHz systems and found them wanting before settling on the
RF Linx UDC's..
I now have several subdivisions, heavily tree infested, that want
service. They will not accept large towers and antennas on each home,
but they will accept a single large tower to serve the entire
subdivision, so a 900MHz or less system for local distribution is the
only reasonable option I can come up with. None of the existing
900MHz systems I have looked at will both provide 360deg coverage and
adequate tree penetration using a single AP, and I can not justify 6
60deg AP's for a subdivision that might have 20 sign-ups total.
Netstream using SR9 cards seems tailor made for this.
Based on the expected ship dates for the SR9, I was expecting to begin
testing the SR9/Netstream system in the next week or so and begin
deployment by the end of this month. Now, it looks like I won't even
be able to start testing until the end of May. Even getting a pair of
the cards to begin testing with would ease my pain and that of the
eagerly waiting customers....
I am really getting up against the wall here. My time is running out
and I must find my answer soon.

We have received samples and the cards are working well, UB wanted to
make
sure these radios are 100% before releasing 900Mhz is much more
difficult
then 2.4 or even 5Ghz. It will be worth the wait.

It seems that the delivery date on the SR9 cards from Ubiquiti
Networks is
now the 2nd week of May....
It was first of the year, then March, then April, now May....
Can you say 'vaporware'?
