Hi Darin, Comparing Ubnt AC to EPMP ... it is not a fair, apples to apples comparison.. one is a 802.11ac based and the other is 802.11n based system.
in regards to certs... actually, both are now certified for all of the bands... EPMP is available for use today, Ubnt AC products, awaiting a new firmware to unlock the channels. ><I'm most interested in how ePMP scales on towers compared to UBNT If you are feq. constrained, the re-use of freq with EPMP will be highly desired. If you are not freq. constrained then ability to do higher bandwidth with the AC products will be appealing. >>>how it handles a low signal client better than UBNT when a dish gets >>>misaligned For all systems, irrespective of who makes them... the key factor is Signal to Noise Ratio... if that is decent stuff will work well, if not then they all come down to their knees.... How much and how quickly....would be very difficult to describe....(kind of like asking someone what does a rose smell like ?) >>>Consistent jitter and ping is also something I'd be interested in hearing >>>about to see how it handles VOIP and gaming better than UBNT. On any GPS based system, you will have a higher ping time....(latency) EPMP's have a very decent QOS mechanism, and voip works well . Ubnt works pretty decent too. However as a general rule.... non gps based systems are more susceptible to interference... but then keep in mind that is a relative statement, depending on the strength of the interfering signal, even the gps based units will come down to their knees.
