Wow a perfect copy of mikrotik LHG 60 with integrated 5 Ghz backup there are no more info about specs
LOL, it will take 5 years.....The MIkrotik PCB is actually 5GHz ready, just chips are not soldered in. They must have though about it being important enough to implement it, but then it never made it into final version (why? regulation? compliance tests?). Now Ubiquity have a product with a feature MIkrotik doesn't have... it's time to wake up and release 60+5GHz hardware.
GPS sells. It is one of the "magic bullets". And maybe they are planning a P2MP scenario with these devices as clients....
i don't really understand however, why they have this on a P2P unit. you can easily have TDD media access on a P2P just by using wireless synchronisation. the GPS based stuff only excels in multipoint scenarios...
When you have links in many directions from a single tower, it is an advantage when you can synchronize them for transmit/receive so the link in another direction does not transmit over the remote station you are trying to receive.i don't really understand however, why they have this on a P2P unit.
No we need narower channels because of cheap antena desing. On one pole u cant use same channels...antennas can see each other..the direction of the antenna doesnt matter. If u are so close signal can pass througt grid. With proper antenna yes, 4x 2GHz channel is not problem (same on e band radios) With cheap anntena it is problem. I like to have option for 500MHz, 1GHz and 2GHz channel....at 2,16GHz channel LHG60 is connected at 2.3Gbps, so on 1GHz channel we have about 1,064 Gbps and for 500MHz channel 532Mbit. For a lot of purposes is it still more than enough, like connecting some ptp customer or camera system - 500MHz is the sweetspot for this. 1GHz for multiple ptp links on one pole. 2,16GHz wide channel is just waste of 60Ghz band.having 1GHz channel width reduces the available bandwidth greatly. and it is also not compliant to the original WiGiG standard. so it is a vendor lock for sure. ..
sorry, but i see otherwise and i have quite some proof for it. we run a 60GHz single frequency mesh network in Márkó, Hungary (using just a single 2GHz channel, channel #2). we have 4 radios on every single pole. the units are GPS synchronised and the media access is TDD with 50/50 ratio. we have ~350 radios - that also include the 100 subscriber units - in this network, covering roughly 1 km2 area - the average link length is about 90m. the client side units don't rely on GPS for synchronisation, they are locked on to phase using the wireless link to the distribution nodes.On one pole u cant use same channels...antennas can see each other..the direction of the antenna doesnt matter.
Autocorrelation using complementary Golay sequences are a good way to mitigate weak interference - they are used all over the 11ad standard. (about golay sequences:https://scdn.rohde-schwarz.com/ur/pws/d ... 1ad_WP.pdf- chapter 5.1.)There will be interference problems sooner or later, especially if these radios will continue to be used for P2MP covering wide sectors. Phased antenna can do wonders, but it does have some limitations at suppressing interference... and GPS sync doesn't help if it's not your radios that are causing the interference.
