Ok, I'll bite. What UL radio set is going to produce 150Mbps FDX and at what RF spectrum cost?

I can talk all day about the advantages of licensed (guarantee of 35-40db fade margin for starters) but I want to throw out some real world numbers I am seeing. Don't get me wrong, there is always a place for unlicensed radios (speed to deploy...licensed takes 4-6 weeks to build, and you can move the radios without relicensing) but there are other options on the high capacity side right now. Check out everything below because the pricing for licensed has come down tremendously over the years. Just something to mull over this weekend. THIS IS ALL IN APPLES TO APPLES. ~110mbps Licensed Radio Radio + 2 foot dished + Coordination = $9,995.00 FCC Fees = $650 per side = $1,300.00 2 Power Supplies and 2 POE Adaptors = ~$638.00 TOTAL PRICE ALL IN = ~$11,933.00 ~150mbps Unlicensed Radio 150mbps Connectorized Radio Link = ~$11,000 Dual Pol Antennas + Coax Jumpers = ~$400.00 TOTAL PRICE ALL IN = $11,400.00 -Jeff CTI "There is a Difference" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- WISPA Wants You!
