We have noticed that the uplink on all the subscribers on the 450m
consistently in the 30-33 dBm range. This is on a tower with a very high
ambient noise level, and we never got anywhere near that on the uplink with
anything else. We installed one yesterday that is only 2.3 miles from the
AP, and it is showing 40 dBm SNR on the uplink.
We are only running 80-100 Mbps each on a pair of APs, and it doesn't look
like it's anywhere near maxing out.
