bullet in Europe

[HozicEmir]

when will be available in Europe in larger quantities?

Hello Hozic,

Please check with distributors early to mid December.

Thanks,

Mike

tnx for information
bullet5 for sure will be considered for PtP links and B5 and B2 for CPES for far placed clients.
i cant wait to see it in action, just hope that there will not be some incompatibilities with mikrotik APs.

[UBNT-Mike.Ford]

Hello Hozic,

Other then Nstreme, these units are fully compatible with MikroTik.

Thanks,

Mike

when will the pricing for B2 HP and B5 HP be public ?

and are they in production now ??



thanks
Peter

UBNT-Mike.Ford hasn't given a definite time frame yet, but you're better off using the standard Bullet and a higher gain antenna as it will increase your received signal.

thanks WRT, I thought when choosing an antenna it's important to first determine the area of coverage needed and the distance of the link. Then just use an antenna with enough gain to get a stable link but not so much that you overpower the other end or cause excessive reflections (multipath)

I like the idea of using multiple Bullet5's for backhaul to my data centre, and then using Bullet2's with 15dBi Omni's for WiFi hotspots

I thought the B5 HP and B2 HP's units might help with the extra TX power they have when designing my network, too much antenna gain can be a problem if I am not careful

[HozicEmir]

WHT is right an I learned that hard way, high power is tempting on first but is far better to use lower power and high gain antenna well placed and aligned, but u always can learn that hard way.

[WHT]

People are numerically challenged. A 1,000 mW radio will sell better than a 250 mW radio, in spite of the fact a 250 mW radio and 12 dBi antenna is a better way to go.

We try first with R52H cards and some Senao 400 mw devices and did not obtain satisfactory results. Soon we proved the UBQ XR and it really changed completely to our network, improving well-known the quality of reception/emission. Not long ago we test the new Valemount KXS30SG of 1W and our tests were very dissapointing.
It is so important to speak loud as to hear clear.

for senao i recommend using of large hammer and smash that crap ASP

Then just use an antenna with enough gain to get a stable link but not so much that you overpower the other end or cause excessive reflections (multipath)

How is using too much TX power any different?
You can overpower the other end just as easily if you have too much TX power.

I agree with the other posters. A more directional antenna (where space allows) is always better than a more powerful transmitter.

The only time we use above 350 mw is when we go thru multiple concrete buildings.

hi,

and don't forget you no longer need to lose RX/TX signal in the coax!! :)

More power is useful for 5 ghz as we are allowed 4 W EIRP , 20dBm into a 12dBi doesn't let us make best use of the regs :) , at least 24dBm would be nice and flat across all speed/modulation levels..


greedy huh!
