I asked Matt when I was at HQ a couple weeks ago and he said this is
replacing the old 450i integrated AP. You can't even buy those anymore.
It's a -3dB 90 and no coax to seal. What's not to like? If the radio
fails, so what, swap the whole thing. That's what we do with regular 450
APs when something goes wrong anyway.

I think Ken is confusing the Integrated model with the letter A at the
end of the PN vs. the new one ending in the letter B. You want the on
in the attached Spec Sheet.
The new Integrated 450i has better antenna specs than the old
integrated model and the Cambium 5GHz sector. The feedback I�ve heard
has been mostly positive, although the integrated model prevents you
from turning up the TX power by playing with the antenna gain
settings. So if your overdriving your gear � it might not be a good
investment.

That is the type of information I need. I was not aware the specs on
the intergraded were poor. We have never been very happy with the
performance of the 85009324001. That begs the question. What 90
degree antenna is giving great results?

Why would you do that? I thought the integrated was more of a
convenience thing, but at the expensive of sidelobe and F/B performance.
You could swap out the 450 AP for a 450i AP with the same antenna if
you are wanting to run in U-NII-1 or use 40 MHz channels.
Or there is an MTI 90 degree sector that supposedly has better
sidelobe and F/B performance if that�s what you are looking for.

Has anyone replaced a 450 AP and 90 degree antenna (model 85009324001)
with a 450i Integrated?
I would like to know if coverage was same / better, and the level of
performance improvement?
Thanks
