Were you using a reflector on the 450SM?

Ben,
The testing was based on using the standard Cambium antenna,
respectively, for both platforms.

What antenna are you using in your testing of the 450 vs. 320 NLOS?
I’m just curious because this is an interesting report, as we have a
network of around 2,500 320 customers, and we are in the same position
of looking for that next great thing.
Thank you,

But, if you are using 320 for NLOS solutions, the 450 trade up means
you’re going to lose customers since the 450 doesn’t do nearly as good
a job as the 320

Don’t they have another WiMAX-to-450 tradeup going on? Kind of a 3650
MHz cash-for-clunkers program.

Im stuck with it. We bought an overstock load of APs and SMs. We have
a dream of Telrad working out to save the day with their firmware
load. Some creative Telrad AP deployments gradually replacing the 320
APs, utilizing the 320 CPEs until we migrate the site to LTE with
telrad CPEs, giving us 320 CPEs to redeploy.
The dream is somebody will write some magic code to sit on an
intermediary server to communicate with the FCC database thing so we
can redeploy the 320 APs to small sites.
We had two test sites for the 450. One site landlord hasnt allowed us
up there to swap equipment, we have to deal with that on the lease
side and our other 450 test site has only 3 users on it with good
links so we havent been able to test the 1x magic out.
I would have preferred to more aggressively pursue the 450 and be able
to sell higher throughput higher dollar connections, to offset the
potential nlos customers we would lose. something about being able to
sync with competitors down the road seemed like a good idea to me,
especially with an AP with 3x the throughput and the whole not using
gear thats end of life, but i am but a lowly sysadmin with no access
to the purse strings.

I am just curious how many of you have decided to keep using the 320
series because it goes through trees a lot better than the 450 series
3.65 product?
Are you expanding with it as far as towers go? Or, are you just
adding SMs to what you already have?
