Radio Frequency planning Considerations on back-to-back frequency reuse Cambium Networks recommends to use back-to-back (ABAB) frequency reuse, as shown in Figure This means that a base site of four sectors can be created using two frequencies, which works very well and helps define networks in situations where high capacity is required in a limited amount of spectrum.
Page 156
Chapter 3: System planning Radio Frequency planning Figure 48 Reflection Reflection likelihood guidance As shown in the previous section, reflection can cause a decrease in throughput in an ABAB base site. This section provides guidance on whether a reflection is likely to cause interference. The first condition for whether a reflection can cause the data rate to reduce is that the reflecting object must be in view of the AP and the SM in order to re-transmit the signal.

Chapter 3: System planning Data network planning In the Cambium system, NAT supports many protocols, including HTTP, ICMP (Internet Control Message Protocols), and FTP (File Transfer Protocol). For virtual private network (VPN) implementation, L2TP over IPSec (Level 2 Tunneling Protocol over IP Security) and PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol) are supported.
Chapter 3: System planning Data network planning For communications to outside the network segment, ARP reads the network gateway address of the router and translates it into the MAC address of the router. Then the communication is sent to MAC address (physical network interface card) of the router.
Chapter 3: System planning Data network planning Not more than 128 IP devices at any time are valid to send data to the AP from behind the SM. SM populates the Translation Table tab of its Statistics web page, displaying the MAC address and IP address of all the valid connected devices.
