I have a client that is eligible for 4.9 GHz (already have the license), but the cost\benefit ratio goes to licensed gear over 4.9 GHz. The price isn't much different, but hte throughput is vastly different and you get real protection.

Hi Patrick, Let me also chime in.... Yes, UBNT has been a market disruptor, and Yes, while they have a good product, it is not necessarily a 'Fit' for all. Which brings me to the question that I have been wondering all day today, since I read your Alvarion Promo / Post. Can I ask you to list us how the BreezeULTRA would differ from UBNT Airmax Products. 4.9Ghz is nice, but for most of us it is useless... unless for those who are doing consulting work for Local / City Gov. May be they will consider using 4.9 rather than 5.x simply because the 5.x gear is cheaper. Thanks.
