If you’re not currently using CBRS, note that someone on your staff will need to get certified as a Certified Professional Installer (CPI). Not a huge hurdle, and it’s a misnomer because they don’t necessarily install stuff. They make sure the lat/lon, height, azimuth, frequency, etc. informat

PMP 320 with 10MHz channels, is that still even possibly legal? Don’t know what throughput you can get from that. I also think that running these wherever their 10MHz channel would have to cut into the channel widths they can get on their 3.6 450 APs? Asset sale indeed, very creative accounting

According to one data sheet for the 320s, they operate normally between 36140 and 36740 (if I’m reading that right), is there space to run 450M’s with any speed outside of those frequencies with CBRS GA licenses anyway? > On Nov 30, 2024, at 2:10 PM, Ken Hohhof wrote: > > > Asset sale indeed,

I think pre-CBRS with an NN license, we could use 3650-3700. That’s what we did with our 450 gear before CBRS, and our one Purewave WiMax basestation. 450i and 450m APs can do 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 or 40 MHz channels although given CBRS orientation around 10 MHz grants it doesn’t make much sense

PMP320 was WiMax, right? How many years has that been EOL? I suspect the performance isn’t that great either. Do those customers have no other choice and that’s why they haven’t switched? Seems like with Starlink and 5G Home Internet and other WISPs the customer base would be dwindling.
