Calculated levels and comparison to integrated AP performance. All three sectors had the same issues. We tried every possible combination even slant holding stinger on a 45deg angle. I was just hoping to hear from someone who could explain why or perhaps from someone who got it working.

I'm a little concerned about using V/H as well, which is why I opted to go with a Cambium sector for our first AP, rather than doing this project now. Apparently it does work to mix V/H and slant antennas with PMP450 - Cambium confirmed that is the case with 3.65 (the new high gain SM is V/H and the sectors are slant), so I'm assuming it will work fine with the 900mhz 450i as well... and the Cambium dual slant yagis can easily be converted to V/H as well... whether or not it will work as well as slant, probably largely depends on the environment it's deployed in.

We haven’t implemented 450i-900 yet but would be concerned about V/H vs Dual Slant.

If there are multiple sectors on a tower, you may run into some issues doing frequency re-use, since I don't think the F/B ratio is as good as the Cambium sectors, but if you're talking about a single sector, I don't see that there would be any issues. I am actually planning to upgrade the Ubiquiti 900mhz sector we have to a 450i this spring, and re-use the UBNT antenna.

Ubiquiti 120 Degree 900MHz MIMO 13dBi (AM-9M13-120) Would it work with either a pair of PMP100 AP’s to provide v/h coverage or with the new 450 gear in a V/H implementation? Thanks, Steve
