Yes, on the 3.65 integrated panel

Couple of things…

We are definitely looking into putting the 3.65 PMP 450 SM into a high gain 
panel in order to provide a solution (that’s not an offset reflector).  We feel 
like this could represent the right balance between gain and directionality to 
increase the chances of working better in near and Non-LOS situations.

We believe that this could be approved under our existing FCC grant.  I don’t 
have a timeline on this yet… but is there interest in this from you guys?

Also, the 5 GHz PMP 450i was certified for 5.8 GHz under 15.247.

But what about new equipment authorizations?  I think the timing in the 450i 
was to get it in before the old 5 GHz rules turned into a pumpkin.  I’m 
wondering if it is still possible to get new or modified equipment approved 
under Part 90.

Actually, I’ll have to read the test report on the 450i to see if they went 
with 15.247 or 15.407 for 5.7 GHz.

Yes, I remember Steve saying that. Equipment can still be manufactured, sold 
and used under Part 90, if you have the NN license anyway.

It’s still a question I don’t know the answer to.  If any 3650 equipment 
manufacturer, even Mercury or Telrad, wanted to release some new hardware 
variant at this point, could they?  Or are equipment approvals in the same boat 
as NN licenses?

I think the 450i is only going to be 5GHz.

We'd probably be better off asking WB or KP to make us a 3GHz panel for use 
with the connectorized SM. Or... maybe a slant SuperStinger so we don't have to 
buy the more expensive connectorized SM. That didn't work out so well for 2.4, 
but maybe 3.6 is possible?

I should know the answer, but is there going to be an integrated panel version

My real question, I guess, is whether new equipment approvals can go through 
under the old Part 90 rules?  Or has the FCC essentially frozen the equipment 
market in that band for the next year or so?  An integrated 12-15 inch diamond 
shaped panel would have been nice, although I’d probably settle for some better 
choices of external dual slant panels that don’t cost an arm and a leg but also 
aren’t junk.

Maybe something like this, except it doesn’t seem to actually exist in real 
life, and judging from other Mars panels, would be way too expensive:

Regarding official launch and availability… the PMP 450i is scheduled to be 
publicly announced and officially released in July.  We will have several sets 
of Beta test and demo equipment around in late June, so you’ll be seeing it 
around more at that time.

Its too bad I did not get 150 of those instead of the regular ones.
next batch I will get a few of em to let our techs install. They are already
had a heads up about this and have been waiting for me to order them.

Nah…  if it were, it would be the i450.


The “i” is very special and means different things to different folks…  this 
thing is much more than just “integrated”.  It’s the next generation of 
hardware, and brings more performance to the table (both physical and RF).

Keep the questions coming.

So....the "i" is for "integrated" antenna?
Or is there something more special about it?
