This is non-synced mode is announced for the next release which should be there soon: http://help.mimosa.co/backhaul-firmware-roadmap >There are definitely some advantages to the ePMP (being less than half the >price, for one)... but a B5c is capable of a lot higher throughput and has >some nice features. one of the best things >about using ePMP for PTP links is >that we can just use the same radios for everything, so we always have plenty >on hand.
