The specific model number he referenced is the 19 inch square panel, which is a 
discontinued model number (the 450i SM in the same form factor is still sold 
but is prohibitively expensive and requires a 48-56 volt POE).  I believe we do 
have some of them active in our network, but the only currently sold CBRS SM is 
the 450b high gain which is the round dish.  In 5 GHz there is a 450b mid-gain 
but none for 3 GHz and no integrated square panel.  There is also a 5 GHz 
connectorized 450b SM but I think the only connectorized 3 GHz SM is a 450i.

 

The letters at the end are confusing, it’s not clear if they mean something, 
and they don’t come in sequence.  Try doing a Google search for 450v, you get 
all sorts of 450 volt results.

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.
