Yes,
I strongly suggest anyone using cambium gear get the best out what they
are using or going to use by
attending the courses that they offer.
In order to truly know what your getting for the money you are spending.
I would not of ever deployed any ptp800 if I did not attend the official
training on them.

Are your pmp APs GPS sync or not. If they are GPS then something is indeed
screwed up. We were at one of the training events and they were quite
upfront with the fact that a the connectorized AP, SM and Force are all the
same unit just different configuration. The only unit that is different was
the GPS unit and the Force110PTP don't have GPS.

Holy shitballs this has become a FUBAR!!!
Before even getting my shipment I had to wait a few days for my
distributor to figure out what's going on with the force 110 model number
making two part numbers to send to me. That's the distributors fault for
the delay, but Cambium's fault for a) making two part numbers equal a third
one and b) making some STUPID long string for part numbers.
I ordered 3x force 110 ptp to put up a new link. The radios are the exact
same part number as my pmp APs (I expected them to look the same, but model
number seems fishy, so I called Cambium).
I've talked with Robert on Cambium Support for 20 minutes. I got the
whole speech about they don't do part numbers, presales does, what is the
exact issue, etc. and I ended up teaching him that there is a "force 110
PTP" besides the "force 110". Jesus.
There is not resolution for me at this point, just hanging out on hold.
If this was not a mistake on my distributor's part just order the force 110
PTP instead of the 5 GHz connectorized radio (it'll save you $300).
Props to Colin (sp?) over at Streakwave for explaining the situation. The
PTP radios and APs are *THE EXACT SAME PART NUMBER*. The difference is the
PTP has a sticker over the sticker on the box. You also can't specify CMM
or GPS for sync (the GUI has it grayed out). Make sure you label the PTP
radios yourself before you climb the tower!!!
Why are part numbers being so extremely difficult to work with?!
