Hello Eric:
These are encouraging results. Would love to hear about the # of active SMs on AP and distances of SMs used for test.
We are running on 5 Ghz 450M with a mix of mostly 450br with some 450b & a few 450 sprinkled in. No connectorized. We have 17-21 active SMs on each AP. Most are LOS, few are nLOS. Reliably delivering a mix of 30, 50 & 100 Mbps with max 20 Mbps upload. We were at 2.5ms/40MHz but find that the 5ms gives better performance and customer satisfaction. AP reports 90% frame utilization with 98-100% success during peak traffic with mu-mimo from 2-12%. We now run at 80/20 split but will be testing 75/25 soon for the fun of it. VC deep at 256. We also locked the SMs to no greater than 6x/6x modulation.

What do you all think? How do we compare to other 450M AP? Much room for improvement or not? Interested to find out as we seek to get better.
