Can’t say I have…interesting that they are releasing these. Do people really need this much power?! 
Looks like the receiver specs are identical to the SR2/SR5 but you get more power and a ground. Hmmm.
Excellent ESD protection, better rejection, industrial temperature rating, enough power that the card can be massively derated, no often-useless and fragile diversity switch, etc. A complete retake on what’s needed for 802.11 applications demanding reliability.
After years depending on luck to run networks using consumer grade ultra cost-reduced cards that were never intended to go any further than the guts of a laptop, these look like a real breath of fresh air.
I saw info on those a short while back, very interesting.
IMHO they are probably most suited to “base station” and P2P products, but haven’t seen pricing yet, to see they would be fit in CPE models.
Certainly the high TX power would help wide angle BS sectors particularly at 5GHz.
“Nice one” UBNT -
An important question, what’s the current draw on the PCI bus, and therefore which boards/solutions they will will work with.
Anyone who gets one to try, please do post results -

Another nice thing about these is that they’re massively characterized in the datasheets. Current is detailed by rate, can’t remember the numbers but check 'em out…
I wonder if the ESD/EMP protection will fix up the woes people have been having with the Pacific Wireless collinear antennas?
They look good on paper and if the SR series is anything to go by they should be good performers.
Has anyone gotten their hands on these to try them yet? I’m eager to hear about it!
