Yes, charts are always good.  Especially if the chart would also have 
checkmarks for which U-NII bands they are currently approved for.  And what 
power they take.

Yes, we do have too many variants.  It is being streamlined in the AC line with 
NanoBeam, Powerbeam (still will have multiple sizes). 

NanoBeam = all integrated
PowerBeam = inner feed/dish design

It is a challenge with sku's since may sku's are needed for different areas of 
the world (i.e. some products are very popular here and not as popular in other 
parts of the world).

Would chart help?

  Ben, you guys have too many product variants, and in some cases need better 
naming.  Like NanoBridge, NanoBeam, PowerBeam, NanoBeam AC, PowerBeam AC.  I 
honestly don’t understand the difference between a NanoBeam and a PowerBeam, or 
why one has models by antenna gain in dB and the other by antenna size in mm.

  And of course the NanoStation Loco, why is it Loco?  Because it’s crazy small?

  Then there’s the M vs W thing.

  My head hurts.

  Here you go: 

  Lite - No airPrism, will do PTP and PTMP
  PTP - PTP only, airPrism
  PTMP - PTMP only, airPrism

  These are split due to the filtering used for each (maximize PTP and PTMP 
performance).  We won't split unless there is a performance reason to.  The 
cost is same either way...

  How much is the budget?  Consider AF-5X?

    What are the differences between lite, ptp, and ptmp airprism only?

    Are some of these shipping without all there guts?

    I am looking at replacing an old shitbucket tranzeo link, we already have 
it connected to one pol of a set of radiowaves 2 foot HP parabolics. I figure 
its worth checking out these AC radios, but I dont know whats what now, is this 
a permanent separation with UBNT of ptp and ptmp or is this two things that are 
going to converge?

    Other than the Ac component, for a low throughput demand link is there any 
major benefit of going to the AC over the M5 in terms of performance? (future 
demand is a factor as well)

    Also considering the epmp, goods, bads uglies between the three products 
there?
