The airfibres are huge and expensive, power hungry, with little functional advantage over the 5.8GHz systems for ordinary STL purposes. You're also much more likely to need planning permission for them than for the unobtrusive 5GHz units (though in many areas technically even they officially need planning consent!).</p></blockquote></body></html>
