I read somewhere that 60GHz is commonly used in satellite to satellite communication due to low probability of intercept and no chance of interference/jamming from Earth based transmitters. No oxygen absorption or rain fade in outer space.

Well, they didn't say it would work that well on Earth... how are they supposed to know you aren't going to be installing these links on the moon?

It appears to be +22 Tx power into a 51dBi gain antenna, so not much different than any other 80 GHz product in the link budget. Sure it'll be -51 at 7km in clear rain free skies, or something like that. But the link will be incredibly fragile. If you want full data rates at five nines reliability statistically over a year, more like 2.5 to 3km max.

Question is... What's the Rx level needed for that, and how quickly does it drop off with rain? --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus
