100 megs
I am looking at a link that would need to be 100 megabit. I see that we can bond two channels together to get 60 megs, but that's not 100. Could I bond 2 channels together and then just bond two of those together, just as if it was 2 FE ports?

If you need to guarantee 100Mbps full duplex you need licensed microwave or a laser link.
The best results so far using MT on good HW platforms, we're already showing 70+Mbps half-duplex throughput on a single radio using Turbo mode, and with Nstreme2, full duplex on 2 radios/antennas is possible. Have a look down the threads.
I think a more experienced MT expert will let you know if further channel bonding is possible. There are practical constraints with number of radios in one box, co-channel interference, antenna positioning which might make it impractical though.

That's interesting -
We're planning to build and sell MT-based radio links, which as you point out will be cheaper than licensed MW or FSO.
But even FSO is cheaper than fibre I think - not sure what prices you have heard.
I'm not going to mis-use the MT forum to promote products, so contact me offline atstephen.patrick@cablefree.co.ukif you want to.
We think MT-based radios are certainly the way to go, either for low cost, multipoint or long distance p2p.
All the customers who are used to Cisco/Proxim 802.11x products who have seen our prototype demo are very impressed.

Fiber is only expensive cause people let themselves be screwed on price by having someone else do it. If you do it yourself, you save tons of money... just like everything else. I wouldn't expect to pay more than $5k USD to string up a mile of fiber. Weighing stringing 12 pair on poles, or trenching 144 strand.

Well, if you do it along the utility poles, you don't have to worry about any trenching. Buy yourself a few hangers, give the utility company $9/year/pole, and you're good to go. Well, there's more to it than this, but not a whole lot.
I have seen a few reports around saying that %age wise, aerial routes are more reliable than trenched routes anyway.
But in this scenario, no. There really is nothing major. The only places I have to worry about are in the university I'm trying to go to, and they've got access tunnels all over the place.

Where can you get a licensed link for 2K $ ?!!! Please contact me off-list atreditela@gmail.comWell, then again, certain setups have different pricing. I can get DS3 links in 38ghz for $500/year and like $2k equipment. If I only need a DS-3, that's worth it. The higher speed links are much more expensive.
38GHz hardware?
Please explain this licensed DS3 kit in 38GHz for $2k equipment charge. Or contact mejon.brewer@att.net.Where can you get a licensed link for 2K $ ?!!!
