RE: Aruba Point to Point (PTP)
We've had great luck with the Exalt r5005- total of 160 Mbps that you can shape (100 down/60 up, 80/80, 120/40)- rock solid and reliable in 5 Ghz. Easy to align as well. We have a number of high-end and crazy cheap bridges in use, and right now Exalt is the reigning champ here for value. We are getting ready to go down the Gig bridge road for the first time, but none of our current bridges (even the lowly 11gs) are anywhere near saturation. -Lee Lee H.

How reliable is it for you. How much does the weather affect it? How much through put are you getting and in what frequency are you using? We are looking to have a temporary deployment for a particular building that is less than a mile away and has excellent line of sight. Any input would be great. Thank you in advance.

RE: Aruba Point to Point (PTP)
We have used a Bridgewave PTP for a few years and it has performed very well. http://www.bridgewave.com/products/ge60.cfm Bruce Entwistle Network Manager University of Redlands From: The EDUCAUSE Wireless Issues Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU] On Behalf Of Brian David Sent: Wednesday, June 13, 2012 5:13 AM To: WIRELESS-LAN@LISTSERV.EDUCAUSE.EDU Subject: [WIRELESS-LAN] Aruba Point to Point (PTP) All, I wanted to get peoples perspective on their PTP wireless deployment.

RE: Aruba Point to Point (PTP)
We use Alvarion B-14's for our broadband wireless network and Exalt for TDM backhaul on our cellular network. They've both been working well for us.
