We're still waiting for a good replacement of our purewave wimax.
Telrad still operates with this soon to come promises. These were announced
at alvarion times.
I dont believe purewave will do their long announced multi-carrier bs
and I dont believe Telrad will ever do 256 QAM and mu-mimo.

Lots of marketing-BS to stay in market.

Looking at the price range of this products 256QAM in both directions is a
must have *now*. If they want to sell options they have to have a release date
and a cash back guarantee if they dont meet this.

We dont use PMP450 as we need higher output power for our
licensed spectrum. Purewave does 33db/port. Lets see if the announced 450m
stuff will do higher power in 3,5GHz.

Are we talking about LTE or Wimax?

Of the 4 Wimax systems I've used, the Compact is probably the worst.
I'm assured that all of my problems are fixed when we upgrade to LTE.

I'm not sure I trust the opinions on LTE.  People are very focused on the NLOS 
performance, and they are still experiencing the "wow" factor of getting a 
connection working in a weird place that seems like it shouldn't work.  I 
haven't seen much conversation about whether the connection you get is 
something supportable.  Wimax always had the problem that if the customer tells 
you something is wrong you have a hard time proving whether there is or isn't a 
problem without going on site.  I don't know if LTE on the compact really 
changes that situation.  I do know the Gemtek CPE still has no damn ethernet 
stats.

In LTE the AP can use a 20mhz channel at 64QAM and get close to a hundred meg 
aggregate on that.  You can pay a license fee for dual carrier mode and use 2 x 
20mhz channels to double that.  With MU-MIMO at some future date they expect to 
double that.  So best case is 400meg (I believe).  Since using 40mhz might not 
be practical, divide that by what you can actually use.

They do have a capacity planning spreadsheet if you can get in touch with 
someone who has it.
