The feed horn for my 620mm Ubiquiti dish broke and I'm having a hard time finding a replacement. It's intended to go on a municipal tower so I'm looking for something very robust. Should I keep looking for a replacement feed horn? Switch to a 500mm dish? Or switch to the large Mikrotik LHG?
Theme by Danetsoft and Danang Probo Sayekti inspired by Maksimer
is a physical replacement for the PBE-M5-620 radio.
The 620 has -2 to -3 dBm compared to the 300 and 400 radios.
I don't know if the feed horn antennas are different among the 300, 400, 500, 620;
else the different radios may not 'fully' illuminate the 620 mm dish.
But, the PBE-M5-300 is about 40% of the cost of a PBE-M5-620.
On the other hand, I am totally enamoured with the Mikrotik RBLHG-HP5(n/ac)D-XL
due to its cost and performance.
Has anyone put a PBE-300/400/500 feed in a 620 dish?
