RB411r EOL

Tue Jun 08, 2010 7:48 pm

I just received notification from Streakwave that the RB411r is being EOL'd. Can anyone comment as to why? It has been a wonderfully inexpensive solution for our close-in links.

I asked MT sales about two months ago, "when were they going to change the RB411r from UFL to MMCX?".

We saw that happen to the RB411AR. All the RB411 boards seem to be going to the new PCB layout with MMCX pads.

The new Mikrotik radio cards are all MMCX.

It makes perfect sense to make MMCX the new standard.

My prediction - RB411R-MMCX coming soon.

Well, I would always welcome something priced lower, but I would prefer a higher powered card included at the same price level than a lower price for the current powered card. An N capable card that also supports A/G in 5/10 Mhz channels would also be nice, but I am not even sure if such a card exists.

Nonetheless, you guys have done a great job of continuing to come out with better, faster and cheaper routerboards, and for that I am very grateful.

Gigabit ethernet to take advantage of the 802.11n speed.

I wanted to think that, but gigabit requires more power so it would have to be higher MHz...thinking more RB711Rn makes more sense and on a path to offer RB750Rn in a future.

I am actually having an issue with the change of the RB411 to mmcx. I am using the boards in a mesh enclosure application. I order boards for my next build run and found a single mmcx antenna connector instead of the 2 u.fl connectors. I add a R52N card hooked to 2 diversity omnis on top for the mesh and then use the on board with diversity to connect clients to the AP via two antennas on the bottom. Now I can only use 1 antenna and have to plug a hole? Thats a problem for me.

If you were going to go to mmcx, why not give us both antennas at least? Are diversity antennas out of style?

Any updates? Is something still in the works for 2.4GHz?

I would recommend keeping the old stuff up long enough for your customers to not jump ship while waiting on the new.

I like the new 5GHz CPE, but I can only use it in two of my locations for a small portion of my customers.
