If anyone could give advice on how to achieve this, I would greatly appreciate it.
We need to install a point to point that is at 18km apart.
The challenge I'm facing is finding a solution that would be able to handle 2.5Gbps at this distance.
Had a look at following products.
NEC's 18Ghz Duel Polarized Link - This will cover the distance but not the bandwidth at 1.25.
Siklu's Etherhaul 2500FX (80Ghz) - Has 2.5Gbps but uptime is dodgy at best with 99%.
Huawei RTN320 - Information is sparse on what distance the radio can cover but does have the throughput.
More information about the installation.
*Clear line of sight.
*Will be mounted on radio towers at both sites.
*Location is in Swaziland (Not sure about spectrum regulation???)
*Rain is common and needs to be factored into the solution. (Why Siklu's up time isn't great)
*Enterprise equipment recommended due reliability reasons.
*Trunking is possible but would need to install additional fibre for each antenna. (Not ideal.)
Any recommendations or ideas on how to go around doing this?
Edit: Spelling error.
