What kind of throughput do you get with those?

FWIW...... the situation described is the exact scenario for a Micro-POP.
There are a number of folks who are currently doing such a setup with 60ghz
or 24ghz as backhaul and Mimosa A5's for 5ghz PTMP... expected thruput is
between 150meg to 300meg easily.

How about 60ghz to the first house and 5ghz to the second house and run
Trill to create a ring?
Does using multiple new technologies instead of just one make it seem less
risky? š

Scared of new technology.
Seems a bit too long range for that freq.
Worried about not enough time has elapsed to prove them out.
They sound expensive.
Everybody knows 60 GHz is all absorbed by the oxygen anyhow...
Not sure God would approve...
You all the same normal reasons...

For so little throughput a 5GHz setup would be the cheapest and probably
best setup.
What keeps you from being a believer of the 60GHz? I can show you the
history of some of my Ignitenet links that may just change your mind.
Thank you,

Not a believer yet. And we only need 100-250 Mbps max to the homes.
Actually probably more like 50 or 100 Mbps.
Want it to be simple too. ONT has multiple ethernet ports on it. Just
extend those physical layer 0/1 connections.

What about a couple of 60GHz links with a single 5GHz AP as a backup?
We did this for a bank that needed to connect two buildings temporarily. Put a
MT on either side that ran IPSEC tunnel over the link with a failover script to
route traffic over the 5 GHz link if the 60 lost more than 50% of it's packets.
The 5 GHz was slower, but they still had connectivity in the even of a heavy
rain.

Still puzzling over how to get ethernet the last 3000 feet. I have
fiber to a point along a rural road. The end is about 2000 feet from one home
and 3000 feet from another.
Was looking at using the existing copper with VDSL line extenders.
That was what that week of math problems was all about. I am starting to lean
away from that solution because it is old copper. I really want to stop using
it.
I donāt have a ROW that is legal. The old copper technically is in
trespass and the owner of the property is known to be a major PITA. So not
sure if I can get permission. Even then, we are talking about 5000 feet of
fiber to place. There will be some money involved.
Using wireless could be much cheaper. Will have to do a solar
install with the ONT and RF gear on a stub pole at the handhole.
Not sure what kid of RF. Donāt want to use an AP because I need two
layer 2 connections from the ONT. Be more expensive to use an AP anyhow. So
two PTP systems. Rock solid, never fail type of system. Noise floor down
there is probably pretty low.
I could use a pair of rockets etc. Not wanting to lo-ball this, want
it to be very solid.
What would you use?
