Not sure if Cambium has the PTP version of their 6 GHz ePMP out yet.  I feel 
like 4 miles is kind of long for unlicensed 6 GHz given the EIRP limit, but 
you’d have to do the math or run it through LinkPlanner.

Once upon a time, I had a 11 GHZ emergency license that could be deployed 
anywhere nationwide at any time for any link.  Not sure how they handled 
interference.  I am sure that system no longer exists.  It was for common 
carriers.  Talking 40 years ago.

At 4 miles, 11 GHz would be a good choice.  You’re going to pay for frequency 
coordination and FCC licensing, I wouldn’t cheap out on the equipment, get 
something you’d be happy to put on the shelf and redeploy after a year.  If you 
get Aviat radios and antennas, you shouldn’t have a problem finding a buyer for 
a set of Aviat radios with 1 year on the odometer.

 

Or like Colin said, you could shop the used market if new is beyond your budget.

 

When you say a 12 month commitment, is it like a construction site where at the 
end of 12 months they will definitely be canceling?  Or are you requiring a 12 
month MINIMUM term in order to put in such a link, but they could keep it 
month-to-month after that?  Either way, it would be to your advantage to do it 
right – either you own a nice pair of radios to redeploy, or your revenue 
stream lasts longer than 12 months.

So 18Ghz, or in very rain-heavy areas 11GHz. Find a way to make Aviat pricing 
work, or go with a used dual-polarity 1.2gbit Cambium PTP8x0 from 
SurplusWirelessGear or others.

Just under 4 miles.

That is correct.

You can get the equipment back at the end of the contract, right?

I'm putting in a bid to deliver a 1G symmetric dedicated circuit. What are my 
options for PtP gear that can accomplish this? I was thinking AF11, but their 
advertising is misleading as it looks like (at least in the US) it can do just 
under 700M. This is a 12 month commitment, so Aviat is probably out of the 
budget.
