I am doing a lot of research as well as a lab built 5GHz test system for a point to multi-point build. It seems everything is going the way of 5GHz and with that I have a fair amount of concern regarding getting a definite clear line of site from a customer to a tower offering them service. Specifically I am struggling with what others are doing on the customer side.
The area I am looking to build out with 5GHz would be pretty typical farmland. The vast majority of it is wide open but around the houses people do have a fair amount of trees to create wind blocks and just physical separation from the fields. If the customer has an obstruction like trees or other rooftops that might block a signal do you put up your own small tower to get them service? Do you not try to service them? What type of equipment do you use to actually do the installation then? Do you generally say because of xyz reason you need a tower and we do it for you but it will be a one time fee of x or a monthly fee of y? Thanks in advance, Tim
