One co-location scenario that I could see would be a 450 cluster and maybe an ePMP 2k on an omni (or one or two sectors) running in the 5.4 band for those really short-range customers. It would be nice to keep both systems in sync. We've had problems at a few sites with very short range SMs hearing both the AP facing towards it and the opposite AP operating on the same frequency.
What I'm more worried about are those small ePMP micro-POPs. We have an existing customer on the edge of a treed neighborhood that has LOS to a core site. Say they're on a 5GHz 450 SM. We upgrade it to uncapped and pop up an ePMP AP to feed a couple of their neighbors with no LOS to the main site. Classic micro-POP scenario of which we have a few dozen. Some being only a mile or two from the core tower with a 450 cluster.
