use an XR5 (ubiquity) card as radios, with mikrotik, a 24 dbi panel on the aesthetic end from pac wireless. 3' dish on the other end. You'll have more than enough margin.
Don't ever ever ever use an amp on anything. you only amplify your problems. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Nash Sent: Saturday, April 21, 2007 7:28 PM To: WISPA General List Subject: [WISPA] 5GHz Amps I'm needing to do a 14-mile link at 5.8GHz. I will have to use a 15"-or-so flat panel antenna due to building owner's asthetics requirements. On this 8-story building, I'll mount to the side of the masonry, then I'll have about 25 feet of LMR-400 from the antenna to a weatherproof enclosure with 110v power. On the other side I'll be 100' up on a tower on a hilltop, and I can use a higher-gain antenna. I believe I'll have to use an amplifier to achieve this. Soo... A) Am I incorrect about this? B) If I'm correct, what 5GHz amps have you found to be effective? C) Opinions on using regular or bi-directional amps?
