I'm a little confused about this discussion about usefulness of the CBRS 450 high gain as it's the backbone of my network. We use it wherever we're not forced to use 900 megahertz 
I believe you can use two SM's for a point-to-point link while a 450i requires an AP

So I gather I would also need an AP unit in order to make a single link as in point A to point B and these units are purchased as subscriber modules and not convertible?  Plus I'd need power modules?  Yep, "E" waste.

You need a mounting bracket, I think it’s called a “tilt bracket assembly”.  There’s an MTI mount that also fits but we only used those years ago when we had some left over from the Trango days.

 

Looks like the Cambium part number is N000045L002A and Streakwave has some in stock for about $28.  It should not be discontinued because there are other Cambium radios that use the same bracket.

I'm interested.  We still have several 450m out in the wild.

How many "other" parts would be required to deploy these?
