Maybe UBNT would like adapters designed for an array of licensed dishes?
This would help get the radios out to the masses faster.

Sure can. I would recommend SMA connectors though I think.
What does the radio have on it?

So I assume there is no adapter available based on the crickets i've
heard from a few places.
Paging Chuck McCown- If we wanted 20 or 30 of these could you make up
a batch? I assume there would be others who would end up wanting them
too.

If the dish's feed waveguide is cylindrical, yes you can use dual
polarity with it. The question is having the right adapter, which it
sounds like Chuck will build.

UBNT is about to release their 11 Ghz radios to the market. I
imagine some operators like us may want to upgrade existing 11
GHz links to the UBNT radio to gain more capacity.
Our licensed links are Dragonwave Horizon Compact and we use the
Andrew VHLP2-11-DW1 in the majority of links. Is there an
adapter that will convert these dishes to N connections? These
dishes also allow us to rotate the radio to take advantage of
Horizontal or Vertical polarities as our license dictates. Can
they be run in dual polarity? Ideally, the adapter would have 2 N
connections, one for H + V. Here is a photo of the Dragonwave
interface.
