Hi all, I'll chime in here to clarify the point regarding TX Power. Trango offers high power as a standard feature, and even higher power as an optional key. The "Extra" high power feature and I should also point out that we also now support adaptive power control, meaning that as ACM kicks in to downshift the modulation, it will simultaneously upshift the TX Power.
11 Ghz Trango: 256QAM +21 dBm (standard) / +24 dBm with optional key QPSK +26 dBm SAF: 256QAM +12 dBm (standard) / +18 dBm (HP Model) 4QAM +19 (standard) / +25 (HP) 18 & 23 GHz Trango: 256QAM +19 dBm / +21 dBm with optional key QPSK +25 dBm SAF: 256QAM +12 dBm (no high power option) 4QAM +19 dBm Trango receive sensitivity is also considerably higher than SAF, so when you combine TX Power and RX Sensitivity, the Trango System gain is 10 dB better (or more) in some cases.

We are in the process of deciding which company to use for 6 licensed links. Both are similar in price/performance. > Trango has more tx power and rx sensitivity, thus their antennas are smaller, which is a plus. I would like to know if anyone has any experiences with either company and their products. I met both in Vegas, but there is only so much real info you can get from Salespeople. Please send any comments off list as not to pollute the list with opinions on products. If anyone would like to also learn what I learn from the list, drop me an e-mail and I will be happy to forward the opinions I get on to you as well.
