...even though it's 11n technology today. In our tests we get ~200M downlink in flexible mode...Rich
Hi Rich. Yes, the ePMP1000 & 2000 are 11n technology, but I've been testing the new Cambium AC gear. The Force300 is the only member yet, and the firmware is still Beta - BUT in a 20 Mhz wide channel, with fixed ratio of 75%/25% set, I get about 160 Mbit aggregate throughput. 125+ Mbit down and 35+ Mbit up... in a 20 Mhz wide channel. We haven't really tested 40 Mhz or 80 Mhz widths yet, but I'm expecting no less than spectactular.

Again, this is still Beta firmware and there are still features missing. Currently, these are made for PTP backhauls only, and there is no '3000 Access Point' ready currently, but I post this just to show you the boost from Cambium's N gear to their AC gear. The Force 300's are really impressing me. And, unlike other brands we've experienced, where 'beta period' seems to last for years, Cambium is on Release Candidate 52 already. I now have them carrying live traffic on our network, and they are performing wonderfully. :D
