[AusNOG] AirFibre

[Greg Lipschitz]

We use plenty of the Ubnt gear for short to mid distance PtP links and have had much success. Mainly the Rocket M5’s with the 30dBi Rocket Dish.

Getting good throughput on 5.8GHz links of 100mbit over interesting terrain -  30km on the 1st hop and 20km on the 2nd.

Here is a good link showing the ACMA band / spectrum allocations - http://www.acma.gov.au/webwr/radcomm/frequency_planning/spectrum_plan/arsp-wc.pdf

As I was doing some research on opportunities on ways our company can improve our bandwidth across our sites I can along this product called AirFibre.

http://www.ubnt.com/airfiber

Its described that over the licence free 24Ghz band it can carry 1.4Gbps+ data throughput upto 13km range with the airFibre24. The airFibre5 operates on the lower 5Ghz band (which may or may not require licencing) which can carry upto 1Gbs data throughput within a 100Km range.
For a point to point link at ~$4k it seems like a cost effective way to deploy an alternate FTTP link.
