Did u turn the power up on the epmp ptp links or is it @ default.

There's no doubt about it, it's clear fact.

I am not sure why the signals would read differently, but i'm
curious how you arrived at the 60 to 70% throughput increase.
Other than the ability to sync, I thought the main difference
between UBNT's M series and ePMP was the user interface??

I just changed two low bandwidth 5 MHz width PTP
links from Rocket M2 radios to ePMP 2.4 GHz non-sync radios.
The "signal strength" is about 10 dB lower with the ePMP
radios. Do they use a different mechanism to calculate signal
strength?
Link 1:
2x Rocket Dish RD-2G24
Antennas were not re-aimed when switching radios
Radio outputs are maximized on both systems to FCC PTP
limits
UBNT signal read -62 dBm Tx / -61 dBm Rx
ePMP singal reads -72 dBm Tx / -70 dBm Rx
Link 2:
1x Rocket Dish RD-2G24
1x L-Com DPD 18 dBi Dish
Antennas were not re-aimed when switching radios
Radio outputs are maximized on both systems to FCC
PTP limits
UBNT signal read -70 dBm Tx / -72 dBm Rx
ePMP singal reads -80 dBm Tx / -82 dBm Rx
Both links were stable, and both links appear stable
now. Both ePMP links have 60-70% more throughput. Do I
just need to adjust my mental meter 10 db? Are the new
signals actually as concerning as they feel?
