Wish: 60GHz Pro Model

Hardware MikroTik hardware general

I would like to see a pro Modell of the 60LHG.

0,6m closed/rugged Dish. CPU/Hardware inside the closed dish to melt snow from the dish. 10G Port. 5GHz Backup included or POEout-Port to connect e.g. a SXT.

I don’t care about a 1G or a 10G port, if the wireless link is “only” 1G but yes a integradet SXTsq 5 ac would be nice.

This sounds amazing.

Something like this: http://24.multimediahd.pl/pl/60ghz/105-wireless-wire-dish-alu-400mm-abs-uv-cover.html

With a 60cm disch maybe we can hope to have stable connection during heavy rain for link around 2000m or dare more with integrated backup

9

The new RouterOS releases allow stable connection over 2Km with existing LHG60. We have running links, works fine now in the autumn rain.

At which frequency, and why 66000 (overlapping with 64800) and not 66960 (channel 5 with the standard 2.16GHz spacing above 4)?

As for Pro model - yes I want it too (larger solid dish with radome and integrated 5GHz backup), but don’t forget a good precision alignment mount, and possibly RSSI output to connect a voltmeter.

The Qualcomm IPQ8064 has a 10Gbit interface.

Just saying… :slight_smile:

12

Yes. The mount should be much more solid and needs a screw for fine adjustment for each direction. For RSSI it is ok for me to use ssh/winbox/app as soon as it is fast enough and accurate. 60GHz could be a real dealbreaker.

SFP or 5 or even 10GigE 60GHz model is badly needed. The capacity of 60GHz channel is much more than what can be utilized right now using GigE connection (max PHY radio rate is 7Gbps… so currently we can only use 1/7th of the available bandwidth while wasting entire channel). This really needs to change.
Overall Mikrotik really needs to pull their head out of the sand and start producing 2.5/5Gbps hardware because soon this will be standard and present everywhere. If you are buying new motherboard, it probably already supports it. With cheap Realtek 5Gbit/s PHYs available, it will be everywhere soon and cheap enough for SOHO market. 60GHz products are perfect to deal with this amount of bandwidth and Mikrotik currently have a good lead in 60GHz products, but interface options are dragging it down.
