Any plans for 10Ghz,17Ghz,24Ghz??

Any plans for 10Ghz,17Ghz,24Ghz??

Yes, because ubiquti actively working in this direction. Especially at 24 GHz.
I want solutions from mikrotik, mikrotik because I like it.

Also, more integrated devices like sector antennas (with plastic and metal case), higher gain sxt, sxt with better shilding etc…

Something like AirFiber @24GHz would be nice.

We don’t have any products in this range, but you could look at upconverters such as this: http://pojitko.cz/index.php/mikrovlnne-spoje
A few customers are using them with success

With this new feature in RouterOS (you need a license upgrade for it), you can make custom channel width, as your equipment needs, for example 28MHz: http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Wireless_Advanced_Channels

And will it go 1.4Gbps ? AirFiber is not only about 24GHz frequency…

Unfortunately, I can’t offer you any other solution at this point.

Hi. AirFiber is regular radio, it is no more 802.11 based. It is completely new discipline.
But as it was said by Normis, we do upconvertors for 802.11N. We do orient now more toward Mikrotik, as their HW got finally higher and better level then UBNT and we rearmed for RB which we are getting much more better results.
By now we provide SRD radios based on RB751G and 711UA which are great. We do now radios with 20dB and 30dB antennas.
With 30Bb anennas we do some 4 km ptp with full speed of 220Mbit in 40MHz channel, but it is more limited with CPU, because another way we would get some 245Mbit :slight_smile: So.. Normis.. Once you will have some platform with Gbit eth and CPU with multiple 7XX power… we are going to push thru 450Mbit of net thruput instantly.
On January we started serial production and we served UBNT hardware initialy, but now we see much more pogress and profesionality by Mikrotik HW.

Anyway we are looking forward to upconvert what ever signal. 802.11ac would be nice..

AirFiber is an FPGA based radio, nothing like the low cost 802.11 based stuff (from both Mikrotik and UBNT) built with off the shelf Atheros chips and whatnot. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but you can see it in the price difference of using pre-engineered stuff vs. making something in house. There’s only so much you can do with the pre-engineered stuff. That’s why UBNT’s GPS radios are mostly a no-go right now, too many limitations with Atheros chips.

Insider - do you have plans for converting to 24GHz? Because in Slovakia 10GHz is not license-free.

Hi, I am not ready to talk about plans anymore. Once there are too many ears and eyes around, we will release product information only once ready and on stock.
9GHz should be Ok with your offcom it is legal SRD harmonized band in EU.

An FPGA is a logic device not applicable to radio communications directly.
A DSP on the other hand could be applicable.

24Ghz frequency isn’t very much great. after reading some articles and posts on UBNT forum, it appears that 24Ghz frequency is very vulnerable to signal disruption. a little rain could disrupt the signal

It means he is against such an idea.

With 17Ghz can I ask users what experience they have had and what is maximum usable distance at 17GHz
