The new band goes all the way up to 71 GHz.

Ignitenet has been saying for months that they'll have channel 5 available any day... I'm assuming they're just waiting for the FCC. The MikroTik radios are already capable of going up to 66ghz, but they haven't been certified yet, as far as I know.

I suspect that it's pretty much the same radio as the other 60ghz radios they were making (which seem to have completely disappeared from their website now...), just with a dish attached to it. It's interesting to note that it only goes up to 64.8ghz, which seems odd for a new product, considering everybody's been screaming at the other 60ghz manufacturers to hurry up and get their products updated for the higher channels... I guess that could just be the FCC dragging their feet on getting certifications through for that part of the band though.
