I could go to walmart and get 2500 certificates per roll in multipaks of 8 or more, real cheap.  Our use is in connecting barns for farms as LAN extension to the main house.  Everything here is in a valley or hillside, not much chance of interference with a weather station.  I'm always on the lookout for ptp and pt-mpt configurable on the fly, good-used.  Gear that isn't reconfigurable on the need is just a waste.  Gear that has a reliability issue is also a waste.

thanks

Yes, you would buy these to use as SMs.  If you’re not currently a Cambium 450 shop they probably don’t make sense for you. And yes you would need POEs.

The 450b SMs can be configured in PTP mode and I have one link this way although it isn’t typical to use CBRS for PTP.  I don’t believe the 450 SMs can be used as the master for a PTP link.

In case it isn’t clear, these would have to be used in CBRS mode in the US.  So spectrum access system, certified professional installer, and all that.

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?
