If they sold me a full 2' dish at 28dbi then I could definitely find
places to use that.

Yeah, a one year delay is a pretty big oops, but it’s not really a
solution to the problem anyway. Except that 450b gets rid of the hated
speed caps and also enables 5.1 GHz sub band. I’m not thrilled about
SMA connectors on the top, KPP included a nice mounting post for the
current style connectorized SM, I’ll have to see if it still works
with the new SM.
What they probably need is a slightly larger and also deeper parabolic
dish, get the gain back to 25 dBi, and better sidelobe performance.
Or get to the bottom of why the 450d/450b style dish seems so much
more susceptible to reflection and multipath degradation. I think
Cambium expected higher xmt power would compensate for lower antenna
gain, but that does nothing for downstream.
I heard a rumor they were redesigning or eliminating the cable gland?
Was that mentioned at Wispapalooza?

They are coming out with a 450b connectorized but at wispapalooza they
said it was delayed until March 2020 (it was supposed to ship March of
2019)

Okay I haven't paid a lot of attention to PMP450 since I've been in a
Telrad shop for a few years. It looks like the old style SM was
discontinued.
The Old SM + Reflector was said to have 25dbi of gain.
The replacement 450b "high gain" integrated dish is 22dbi.
Are you kidding me? Cambium, why you takin' my db's away bro?
