We plan to enable GPS Sync for a single �SM� connected (i.e. a PTP
link) in a software update coming in the near future.
It will be a software update to any Force 110 PTP radios that have
been purchased.

The only reason to use it right now is because of the GigE interface
and 802.3af power ability.
So come on Cambium, don't make me buy AirFiber 5X's.

Yes! If the force110 PTP will get a PTP-only sync ability at some
point, I'm going to start using them everywhere even if I don't
actually sync. as they are now, I'm not sure it's worth spending
the extra money over just using a standard force110.

Yeah, if I'm going to buy the 110PTP radio, which we know is the
Sync radio with it disabled!, then let me do PTP-only WITH sync.
I can understand they don't want us buying the PTP radio at half
the price and someone figuring out how to hack it into an AP. For
PTP links, I would spend the extra $ for the PTP radio whether I
need the sync or not, may need it in the future, so why not put
it up now. And I'm talking both ends, you never know if you have
to swap masters for timing.

It's software limited to not do sync. I'd like to see it
limited to being only a PTP, just allow the sync.

There was some talk of enabling GPS sync on the eForce
PTP110, is that something that is going to happen? with the
2.5ms frame, we should get latency closer to what flexible
mode does, correct?

But the force110ptp can't sync so it should always do
ePTP? PTP being possibly better if you have a large
scale of synced backhauls I suppose.

Hi Matt,
ePTP does not support GPS sync as there is no fixed
frame.
PTP mode is TDD based and does support GPS Sync. The
2.5 msec frame also will support GPS Sync.

However, in high interference coupled with long
distance environments the flexible mode will do
better in terms of tput.

Looking at ePMP in 5ghz for PTP. Is there a way to
do it WITH GPS sync to allow frequency reuse for PTP
yet? Running out of 5ghz spectrum.
