Nice upgrade!
Please also consider upgrading RB2011UiAS-2HnD-IN and maybe some other wifi-devices (hap-ac, ...)

A quote from the newsletter:
To get the best performance two simple rules must be taken into account:
• avoid packet fragmentation;
• there must be no packet reordering.
What measures should be taken to avoid packet reordering? I haven't found any hints in the newsletter nor on the documentation page it points to. Does it also apply to the other multi-core products that support hardware-accelerated encryption?

That particular problem with hw acceleration applies only to CCRs.
For example queueing and packet buffering can lead to packet reordering, that could be avoided by decreasing buffers, changing queue algorithms for example to pfifo, etc.

Should we expect a new RB960 version of the Powerbox in the future?

Will the QCA9892 chip used in AC products finally see a working spectrum analyzer?

That will make it more expensive, but the whole point of this LHG5 device is that it's cheap.
For those willing to pay more there's a DynaDish 5 available already.

So what?
I know, and tell about more powerfull device.
Half year ago we mounted bridge on 4 km with new DynaDish. But real real data throughput only ~280-300 Mbps (nv2).

Looking at new Rocket 5ac Prism by ubnt. 650 Mbps on 15 km - it's easy.

I like Mikrotik and wait something more powerfull. LHG 5 realize good idea, but too simple realization.

Have you compared these devices in exactly the same conditions (literally - at exactly the same place and roughly the same time)? If not, your comparison is irrelevant.

Please note that I'm NOT saying that one device is better then another. Honestly, I have no idea which one is better. I'm just saying that your comparison may very likely be incorrect.

For rocket available 31 dBi antennas. DynaDysh is all-in-one.
But DynaDish has lower price.
Why Mikrotik dont do something like rocket, based on LHG design?

Could you, please, do not cite full post under cited post or two or three posts later ? It does not help reading the thread and makes the topic much longer than it should be. If you want emphasise some words just cite this part of the post.

Hello, not sure if this is the correct place to put this question but, any chances that Mikrotik will release equipment with 25-40G technology? SFP28, QSFP+ or something beyond SFP+?. Thks!

Have you REALLY experienced TRUE BANDWIDTH (with testing, not negotiation speeds) to be 650Mbps on 15 km distance in 5Ghz band ?
Has to be totally empty frequency zone, like some sort of desert or smth.

That will make it more expensive, but the whole point of this LHG5 device is that it's cheap.
For those willing to pay more there's a DynaDish 5 available already.
The LGH5 is preliminary a client unit where the DynaDish 5 by its price and specs is more a P2P device.
But as P2P it is a poor antenna. Not very good f/b ratio, wide sidelobs. All plastic. And expensive. For P2P there are plenty other solutions on the market better for the same price or cheaper for the same specs. We definately don't use them for P2P. And now with the LHG-5 we also definately not use it anymore as CPE.
Dynadish imho is an absolete device. Drop the price or stop selling it. No use. (QRT performs better and is almost the same price)

LHG-5 on the other hand is an absolute winner in many fields. Indeed very cheap, light weigthed and good gain.
Fitting it with just the ac chipset and maybe a bit more power will raise the price but should not double it. Let alone triple. A Dynadish is 3 times more expensive then an LHG. And not worth the money.
Having a LHG-5ac would certainly make it a new winner CPE product.

If you also need the metal dish then I can understand the price will push it out of the 'interest' window....
