What is the maximum link distance with SAF equipment?
Normally links are installed and used on distances over 5-50 km, though every individual case requires discrete calculation because there are plenty of aspects to take into consideration (required capacity, fade margin, rain/multipath availability, available bandwidth, topography of the region, annual temperature, rain zone, height over sea level, antenna size, etc.). Under favorable conditions distance may be increased up to 150 km, but under unfavorable conditions distance may decrease to 1 km. Please refer to case study examples to assess real world practice.
