Thanks Rick, and Fred for the numbers! First and foremost please everyone get your comments in to the FCC on the petitions.
Simply put there is a big impact to max possible output versus the new OOBE impacts of 15.407. We’re about to publish a new paper with specific examples later this week, and I can share this with WISPA. Just as an FYI we have additional filings in process on the B5c with the FCC that expand the US allowable power on it with additional antenna options, first filing was for high gain antennas. Before then though, to really simplify this in practical terms, we built a free link planning tool with a specific FCC OOBE switch that tells you the impact of the specific link of the old power limits and enforcing the OOBE limits. Plan a link location, and select Advanced Settings and you’ll be able to see the impacts to performance: http://cloud.mimosa.co I highly recommend WISPA members try this and see the impacts, it best exemplifies real world consequences, and is a very advanced planning tool that understands the new complexities of these new radios. We have a pretty unique new radio type dealing with up 4 streams and resilient load balanced Dual Link modes (2 channel), so FCC restrictions vary a bit depending on how it’s configured. There’s no getting around the impacts especially if you have a product that operates across all the UNII bands. Even if it’s just a product limited to a single UNII-1 or UII-3 band, there’s extreme cost in the filters. We’re complying with the rules tightly so that WISPs can be protected, and obviously doing everything we can to lobby and fight to change the rules with a very well thought out technical proposal in our petition. Before I forget again…get your comments in on the FCC petitions. Cheers!

I know it has been a long time coming. I see the product was certified under 15.407 rules. Could you post a spec sheet as if it were approved under the 15.247 rules, so everyone can see the impact the rule change has on range? I love to see excitement over new products on the list and I wish to applaud of the manufacturers who are creating these products. I wish I could create the same kind of excitement to file letters of support for the Mimosa Petition for Reconsideration as well as WISPA’s, Cambium Networks and Jab Wireless’s Petitions. The spec sheet is not the same as the type approval sheet. It tells what the radio can do, not what the FCC will allow it to do here. There is good reason for Mimosa's petition to be granted, as it has a huge impact on usable power. So if you haven't filed a Comment in support yet, you should! FCC IDENTIFIER: 2ABZJ-100-00014 Name of Grantee: Mimosa Networks, Inc. Equipment Class: Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure TX Notes: 5 GHz Point to Point Back Haul Grant Notes FCC Rule Parts Frequency Range (MHZ) Output Watts Frequency Tolerance Emission Designator 38 MO 15E 5165.0 - 5240.0 0.053 38 MO 15E 5745.0 - 5825.0 0.155 So from that table, the B5c is allowed to use around +21 on U-NII-3 but only around +17 on U-NII-1 (they don't seem to have DFS approval yet). The limits on the B5 are 35 and 179 mW respectively. A 25 dB antenna does require limiting U-NII-1 power by 2 dB, to +28 conducted (no such limit applies to U-NII-3 or 15.247) and if the +21 is for each of four chains, then they are basically at that limit. But the U-NII-1 approval seems to be limited by out-of-band power, which is why they've petitioned to fix that broken rule. Mimosa's signal is quite clean.
