We’re starting the move to .ac with MT now. The 922UAGS-5HPacD has the same 
dimensions as

the 911/411 Boards so we just replace boards.



We get good results with Mars Antennas with housing for P2P. The SXT-Antennas 
are to weak for .ac.

The 19db Mars Antennas give good CPE/short range PTP with a small footprint. We 
use these as

Sector-Antennas where we have to cover small areas.



The .ac firmware adaption is quite new but we see stable results in the 300-400 
Mbit/s range for short links.

The .ac boards have faster CPUs so they may increase 11n-Speeds/NAT Performance.

The 922-Board has a SFP. Ethernetport has moved. Due to this the RFElements 
Stationbox XL do not fit.



MT .ac does PTP and PTMP and is downward compatible to older boards with 11n/a.



SXTs with .ac are not stable with the latest sw-release. So as always with MT 
you’ve to betatest

HW/FW-combination to get it running smooth.

Yeeeeaaaaa, I don’t’ think so.  If you use Ubiquiti you pretty much know what 
works and what doesn’t.  in reality, you use as few  custom features as 
possible outside 802.11 compatibility and limit the radios to Layer 2 bridges 
or nothing more than NAT whenever possible.  Try not to use any of the customer 
features although AirMax seems to be working pretty well.   You just don’t want 
to add anything that adds to processor overhead on an AP for Rocket M5’s if you 
have a higher density.  When the Titanium’s tanked a couple years ago, there 
was a huge hole in any kind of AP product with the ability to handle density 
due to the processor but nobody filled it.  It still hasn’t been filled to my 
satisfaction meaning we aren’t replacing Rocket 5M’s any time soon and we are 
keeping them at 50 users or less for another few months.  However, NetFlix and 
video streaming means we are pushing that down to a planned 30 over the next 
couple of months.  That numbers are just estimates but somewhere between 30-50 
under heavy video streaming usage and AirMax will start causing issues.



If you allow torrents or anything that opens up a massive number of 
connections, then the number of users per AP drops significantly which is why 
we run filtering on the back end to reduce that.  I’ve seen APs with less than 
30 go apoplectic with a couple of wild torrent users.

:-) the ubntboys tend to not be all that informed they blindly swear by 
whatever the spec sheets and feature notices tell them

For the first question, I have no idea, since the only released radios are PtP 
at this time. Pretty hard to tell.

For the second one, "ubntboys" (at least the informed ones) don't run airsync, 
because they know it doesn't work well. :)

For clarification for EVERYBODY reading this post, ALL AIRMAX AC PRODUCTS HAVE 
AIRMAX OFFLOADING :)

The ptp-lites do have airmax offloading? I thought they didn't...

We've had a link running for awhile, but it's got some noise issues, so it 
hasn't really been the best place to test these... that said, they've been 
running fine without any real problems that I've noticed.

ptp lites are missing the internal shielding (i think?) as well as airprism tech

they do have airmax offloading, but it's also a brand new product line... some 
bugs are showing in the software

How are the rocket AC's performing for you guys? Throughput? Bugs?
