Mikrotik Wireless equipment at a frequency of 6-6.2 GHz

Our company uses a frequency of 6-6.2 GHz for wireless networks. Will the equipment for these frequencies from Mikrotik?

To my knowledge there are no WiFi interfaces available in that frequency range, I’ve only ever seen point to point equipment in the 6GHz frequency band - but then again, I only stay on top of US equipment so somebody else may have something more useful to say…

Mikrotik will top out at 6.1GHz using superchannel on some 5GHz cards. Not sure how legal it would be to use this though.

Yes it does work, you just need the right wireless card.

6-6.2GHz is licensed in certain countries.

Currently nobody is using this particular frequency in the U.S. as it is more often used in the asian continents

That’s not exactly accurate - Trango, Exalt, Ceragon, and Dragonwave all offer point to point 6GHz solutions that can be used in the US. I think there are probably others as well.

The problem that I’ve heard with 6GHz in the US is that the FCC requires a minimum antenna size of 6 feet! However, I suspect that the OP, indicating that they have a license, is not US based and probably doesn’t care about our antenna restrictions :slight_smile:

If you only want to use point to point systems, other vendors might be suitable since there simply isn’t hardware available to plug right into a routerboard for that band.

Keep in mind that all of those vendors sell bridges so you’ll still need a Mikrotik to handle the routing! :wink:

For a while, I was also interested in that frequencies. Sometimes, I was wondering
why the jump from 2.4 to 5.8 is like double, but 5.8 to 6 is so little. But to have
point to point 6 GHz is really serving in a noisy 5.8 environment. So yes, if MT, or
Ubiquiti do offer devices in that frequency range is really appreciating.

regards,

so far we tested, the dbii can go up to 6.1Ghz.
but u have to purchase the 6Ghz antenna which it have to customize by some manufacturer.

+1 try dbii really brilliant wireless cards they make ! as 802.11a as 802.11n both are triend on curious link, that should be available all the time - no problems at all, at the same, summer storms are also not a problem to them, we are going to exchange existing ones to 802.11n dbii ones

6.1GHZ shouldnt be big deal.. There are way how to persuade ath chipsets :slight_smile:

What I am interested is free channel bandwidths. Now 5,10,20,40. I would like to see variable 2-40 :slight_smile:
