Seperate SSID per sector, but not the Preferred AP scan list in the SM.
I got bit early on with that since it locks to the MAC of the AP,
changed a sectors after a storm and had to go visit all the SM's to
update the preferred AP List so they could link up again.

All on the same SSID? Or different SSID on each sector?
I think the preferred AP list is looked at in top down order. If the
top one goes away (reboot or whatever) I assume you move to a lower
one, but I don't see a rescan after x minutes option.

ePMP doesn't automatically jump between sectors at all. I tested
this with 3.2 in the last few months. There are a bunch of customers
getting -75 from the south facing sector when east is -60. It's been
a good month on the wrong sector at this point. I expect a manual
rescan or reboot would fix it.

I normally deploy 4 120 sectors on a tower. ABAB frequency. No
issues observed Keep 5mhz guard between AB and you should be
fine. Almost all customers can see more than 1 sector. Just
waiting for automatic rescan in EPMP to automatically put them
back on the strongest sector after an AP Reboot.

I'm thinking if you put a guard band between the adjacent
sectors you'll be fine. If the F/B ratio is comparable to the
Cambium sector antenna then you should be able to do F/B re-use.
It takes a pretty high F/B ratio though.

We have 3 KP Performance 120 degree sectors on a tower with
ePMP. It was the first tower we did with ePMP, and hindsight
being 20/20 I would have done 40 90s to get the F/B Frequency
reuse benefit.
If we add another 120 and make them all N S E W (4 total) I
would have about 30 degrees of overlap per sector. What is
that going to do with ePMP performance, if anything?
