IIRC, the 450m does not have the active filter like the 450i. They are instead relying on the beam-steering to combat the noise.

Hi Craig

We had a 450 fail a while back and we replaced it with a 450i. The customers connections improved so we see the 450i as an upgrade. I don�t know if it was just due to the new sector being better or some magic in the radio. The two main towers where we have 450 are very noisy, maybe it is the adaptive filter doing its thing?

Adam, do you need more processing power or the uplink noise filter? My 450 are performing just fine. I don't see a huge reason to upgrade just to a 450i. I have a few that will go to a full 450m this year. Just curious on your thoughts.

    Has anyone done a real world comparison of the 450m limited vs
    450i integrated sector?

    I would like to know if the 450m in sector mode works as well or
    better than the new integrated sector version of the 450i.

    I have a couple of locations with old 450 I was thinking of
    upgrading to 450i, but with the 450m limited being available I am
    considering going in that direction saving another clime in a year
    or so.

    I just don�t know what the performance of the m antenna would be
    like on sector mode.

    Thanks

    Adam
