Greetings. I'm the sr network engineer for an MSP out of the midwest doing our largest PTMP Ubiquiti setup to-date. We typically operate in the enterprise WiFi space and have extensive experience doing high-capacity WiFi but this will be our first large scale PTMP to-the-home deployment.
This particular project, we're working with a municipality with financial backing from a major software company. They've enlisted us to do a wireless Internet connection to the home with certain criteria (25/3Mbps) and I've chosen Ubiquiti as the preferred solution for the back-haul and other key aspects of the network.
A local metal-fabrication shop made a cap to fit around the chimney top and that's where we mounted our (4) AP‑5AC‑90‑HD's with (12) Rocket Prism AC Gen2s & surge suppression. Because the building and the neighborhood where this resides is historic, we we were not permitted to mount the antennas directly onto the structure.
We've got 1 Gbps of fiber internet and a /25 worth of addresses. Utilizing the EdgeRouter Infinity for pushing packets and our own in-house v-router for everything management, we're ready to scale.
As part of the access agreement for the tower, we're providing WiFi for the apartments where the chimney resides. This also has the indirect advantage of being able to more tightly control the 5GHz spectrum in the area directly around the tower.
We're also providing a Public WiFi network throughout a portion of the district. We're utilizing Ubiquiti backhaul & Ruckus T310s for client coverage.
It will be spring by the time we have a sizable amount of subscribers on, outside of a small pilot, but I am very enthusiastic about the performance of the gear. I've been labbing the Rocket Prism AC Gen2 extensively with as many Ubiquiti Airmax AC radios I can get my hands on, and the TDD framing & GPS Sync seem to be the real-deal.
I'm a long-time reader, but post very little or not-at-all. I saw the free-t-shirt campaign and had to get me some of that free-swag. Unfortunately it seems that ship has sailed recently. 
Perhaps someone in the Ubiquiti ranks can find one in the back somewhere and I promise to wear it the next time a competitor rep comes by to say hello.
