60GHz basically means "same room only". Won't go through walls for sure. Should be useful for open space offices though.

This can be an advantage depending on the use-case. E.g. an access point in each home or room means the signals aren't interfering with each other.

Someone is going to make a killing on tiny, inexpensive RJ45 60GHz access points and switches that support PoE. Killer use case: stick it into a wall, and everything in the room gets gigabit speeds. No wall warts to deal with.

Going to be much more expensive than the Ubnt unit.
