I have had one of the Ligowave (SAF) 24ghz 100meg radios in service for almost two years on a three mile link. It has been an outstanding piece of equipment in the time that we have had it. A few months ago, after a discussion on list, we figured out that we did not have the cross-polarization set up correctly, so we fixed it and saw our throughput go from 60meg to 100meg full duplex along with another 15db of fade margin. We have had some occasional rain fade, but no outages lasted more than five minutes. I do wish that there was an option for a bigger dish, as being able to go 6-8 miles would be very handy.

The link that we have it on used to be fed by a 100meg fiber connection that cost $500/month. We spent $8000 on the Ligo radio, so it paid for itself in 16 months. I think that is pretty useful!

I was just kind of thinking what use there would be for a 100 mbps radio in 24 Ghz. Limitation of just a couple of miles like 60 Ghz, too. Unless the two other ethernet ports can be used to aggregate more bandwidth?

    Two more things...

    Radio has built in spectrum analyzer that works  :-)

    And.... I am told link is plane polarity so only uses one
    polarity plane for data...Not two.
