Well it was stupid on their part. They doubled the number of antennas for distributors to stock, while reducing functionality at a higher price. None of that makes any sense. Well, other than more revenue for them.

That's a connectorized horn vs. a horn and a separate connectorized twist-port. That also means that you can't used connectorized radios with their other twist-port antennas. Also, it costs more this way. Connectorized 30* horn MSRP $220 Twist-port 30* horn MSRP $120 Most expensive twist port MSRP $44.90 So $220 vs $164.90 for the convenience of no twist-port adapter. No easy swaps to different gains. No easy radio swaps. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP From: "Adair Winter" < ada...@amarillowireless.net > To: "WISPA General List" < wireless@wispa.org > Sent: Monday, March 6, 2017 8:21:41 PM Subject: Re: [WISPA] epmp 1000 in noisy environment you mean like this? https://www.rfelements.com/products/antennas/symmetrical-horn-carrier-class/symmetrical-horn-carrier-class/ ?

The main sector is 120 degrees and you can add on a 90 degree “smart” antenna. We have one deployed with the 120 degree sector and the other 2000 AP uses a 60 degree horn. SNR is much better on the 60 degree horn but we keep the 120 up as a fail over antenna for our other APs - otherwise it would get changed out to a 60 as well.

We have both deployed on a noisy tower and the 2000 has better performance - but the 1000 is working. Get your antenna width as small as possible. A 120 degree sector is not your friend in a noisy environment. We are using 60 degree horns and that has really helped with the noise as well since the radio can’t hear as much.
