Lee,

How far along are you re: the Ubiquiti AirFiber evaluation?  I'm looking at 
that product for a couple short-hauls (< 2 miles).

Depends on bandwidth you’re looking for and range. We use:


-  Exalt r5005 80 up/80 down, can be slid around within limit of 160 
Mbps aggregate. Good range, measured in miles. Good value, easy config

-  Bridgewave Gigabit (60 series) shorter range- carrier grade. Pricey, 
but get what you pay for

-  Playing with Ubiquiti AirFiber- 1.4 Gbps over miles- cheap but if 
lives up to it’s promis could be disruptive at under $3K set

We have used a pair of Bridgewave GE60 units for years and they have worked 
well.

We use Ruckus Wireless bridging. Works great in all weather, no hassle 
on setup since they can be married at the factory. I replaced one end 
from a lightening hit, setup was painless.
