The frequency that it operates has no impact on the throughput or the latency. 
Sure there's more noise in our 900 MHz band, but that's because of other users, 
not something native to that frequency. 

The bulk of the 900 MHz gear that we have just doesn't have sufficient gain, 
small enough beamwidth (kinda same thing), sufficient shielding.

But Mike that is the Rub. All things are never the same. 900 is dirty and 
Susceptible to so much noise and reflection because the signal does not die as 
quick. I understand the “Theory” but still have a hard time understanding how a 
slower carrier wave (900MHz) can carry the same Data as 5800MHz carrier wave 
but I know that it could in a vacuum. The issue is we don’t live in a vacuum.

900 will move the same amount as data as 2.4, 3.65 and 5 GHz with all else 
being the same. 

If your throughput is low, you have too little signal for the noise you're 
seeing.

I don't have anything to compare it to other than Tranzeo 900, but I have had 
decent results with it. It obviously won't push the throughput that 5G or even 
2.4G will, even with the same channel sizes, but UBNT salvaged most of my 900 
customers when the Tranzeo gear started running into problems.

How is it junk? IIRC, everyone I've asked that claimed a given 900 MHz system 
was junk had a poor RF environment.

98% of our terrain is heavily wooded. Ubiquiti 900 is junk (but their other 
products perform quite well when they can be used). Cambium 900 is better. Out 
limited experience with whitespace has been good. All of these technologies 
have very low bandwidth.

What are you guys deploying lately in heavily wooded areas? We've used both 
Cambium pmp320 Wimax and UBNT M900, with mixed results on both. We just put up 
a 130ft tower in a heavily wooded river valley area, leaning towards the UBNT 
solution but hate putting money into something I'm not really satisfied with.
