distance? i dont know about how far it goes and costs, i'd like a radius of at least 10 miles....
i want to get a gigE ptp to my office then sell the service.
unsure about the frequency, what it means with wimax.
i'd like to sell up to a hundred megs, maybe gigabit.. users? i dont know, 10-50?
i just want to get pricing to see if it's something i could go after and market.

A typical radius for Wimax will be around .5-1 mile for NON line of site for point to multi point. with line of site, it may be 8-13 miles using 3.65Ghz. look at alvarion BMAX, the cost for the equipment 4 sectors using 2nd order diversity will cost about 25k-30k. max throughput to each customer will be 6-8Mbps.
look at alvarion VL, it is much cheaper and you can push speed up to 10-16Mbps. each sector will cost 4k, and they require basic configuration.
A 1-4 gig ptp will cost about 25-50k on a "licensed" freq
a 300meg Ptp will cost 4-6k "unlicensed" freq
look at
dragonwave for licensed
alvarion for unlicened

as a note it also might required that you need a license to use wimax frequency, i'm not sure whether this is a standard but in certain countries it is required to get license first, and sometimes that is very difficult to get one, atleast in europe.
