3.5Ghz & 900Mhz PowerStations

Will we ever see 3.5Ghz and 900Mhz PowerStations?

UBNT started working on a 900 powerstation, but I think it's on the back burner at the moment.

I doubt we'll see a 3.5 ghz for quite awhile as even the XR3 cards are in pretty low demand right now. I could be wrong.. Just guessing.

I am working towards building a backhaul to serve customers in small pockets scattered over a rather large area (2-300sq miles). I am planning on running 5.8ghz for all of my backhaul. I would prefer 3.5ghz but the difference in cost is too great at this time. Using XR3s wth Routerboards,outdoor enclosures, pigtails & antennas would more than double my installation cost.

If I could buy NS3s & PS3s at a 10-20% greater cost than NS5s & PS5s I would be buying them instead.

I believe that the "low demand" is likely a direct result of the higher cost.

Just my .02...

Also, don't forget the 3.5 ghz frequency band is somewhat licensed (at least in the US) and a new player on the field. Everything is more expensive when it is new and I'm sure in the next year, it will start to take off as the 2.4 ghz bands are just about packed to the max, and 5ghz is starting to see the same effect in busy areas.

I would love to move to a public school just so I don't have to wear uniform.

I don't know man, those private school uniforms are sexy on girls!
