Guys,

I appreciate all the feedback. We're looking into Exalt 24GHz for a 3-mile link. Not sure if it will reach that far ...

Anyone have direct experience with Exalt? We're using Dragonwave and love it, but wanted to stay in the $5k - $7k range on this one ... only need 50M FD at the moment ...

The first thing that comes to mind is another question: Where is the link, and what reliability do you need? At that frequency you're subject to rain fade, so it depends on your rain zone. It sounds like a stretch, but if it's not mission-critical, or has a diverse path, then it might be adequate.

Thanks,
Adam

20 mhz with nv2 might get you upwards of 50 or 60 megs, I am guessing.

I can put together an unlicensed link for for less than $500 that will probably perform as well as something costing $6000, and for another $500 I could have redundancy. I'd be a hard sell to get me to pay for something like that. Maybe I'm just a cheap skate.

>> $8000 is expensive to me for an unlicensed frequency. For just a bit more you can get licensed. If I'm getting out of the $100s range then I'll bite the bullet and go all the way. The difference between $8000 and $12000 is not that much if I have to finance the link.

I don't offhand know the formula for converting that to ERP. But the Exalt has a 10 milliwatt (+10 dB) output which would mean an ERP of around 20 watts with a 1-foot dish. (Values are from memory, not precise.)
