I’m not sure.  Customer talks like the first, website sounds like the second.

It uses 2Mbps upstream 24x7 or just when it's actively in use by the app?

  I had a call from someone yesterday wanting a minimum of 2 Mbps upstream for 
his Ring video doorbell, I wasn’t clear whether that was for 2 doorbells or to 
insure best video quality.  Yuck, seriously?  I have typically seen Nest Cams 
use 200 kbps to the cloud per camera, but supposedly these Ring things want a 
minimum of 1 Mbps.  To see who’s at your door.  In fisheye HD.  What’s next, a 
camera inside my fridge to watch the food and see who’s opening the door?  
Cameras on the pets?

  Amazingly, the video doorbell guy wasn’t particularly concerned about 
downstream bandwidth.

  With the 200Mbps or even 100Mbps, what are you setting the upload to? The 
same as the download?  That’s my concern.. will we be wasting too many time 
slots on the huge upload when we could dedicated it to the massive download 
capacity?

    We are offering speeds up to 200Mbps with the Mimosa A5 but you have to 
make sure your entire backend is built to deliver it.  To do that , we are 
expecting the A5-360 14’s to be within about ½ mile on average and 40 
customers.  We have tested out to 1.5 miles with the C5’s, but modulation drops 
to about 360Mbps.  In that case, I probably wouldn’t offer more than 100Mbps.  
However, that changes when the A5c and B5 sector products come out with bigger 
antenna options.

    XL is using the new Mimosa A5 hardware for those speeds, not the Ubiquiti 
AC. I would be confident offering those speeds with the new Mimosa gear if you 
have great signals and keep distance low.

      So we’re looking at adding some new AC-only rates to our pricing and 
wondering what ya’ll are doing.

      We normally have a three-level hierarchical policer that lets us do a 
commit and a burst rate and a burst bucket (MB).
      We also usually have the upload close to the same commit as the download, 
but with a smaller bucket and burst size than the download.
      We’re wondering if we’re going to be using up too many upload timeslots 
in continuing the semi-symmetrical upload/download options.

      I noticed at the show the XL Broadband guy had a 25/5, 50/6, 75/7, and 
100/8 set of packages.  Thoughts?  Does limiting the upload by that much really 
buy you that much on airtime?

      Thanks,
