The 900-MHz modules cover a larger area, albeit with lower throughput, than modules of the
other frequency bands. The 900-MHz modules can be used to
o penetrate foliage
o establish links that span greater distances
o add subscribers
o add overall throughput where modules of other frequency bands cannot be used (such as
where interference would result or space on a tower is limited).
The 2.4-GHz frequency band range supports AP/SM links of greater than 2-mile spans (with
no reflectors).
The 5.7-GHz frequency band range supports BH links that span as far as 35 miles.
