    Hi,

     

    I have never used an Outdoor Access Points with Built in Directional Antenna before. I wonder if the Aruba AP-367 will help me in connecting 2 buildings 600m away. I have nothing in between them to block the signal.

    Yes, this is absolutly possible. 

    With that setupup you could archive around 400 Mbps. The 367 is good for P2P up to 1 km.

    If you are using APs with external more narrow Antennas you could get better results. As an example 274+5314.

    Depends on what you are expecting.

    Many Thanks. 400 Mbps is enough for me. Will use this solution.

    Just a quick correction from 'cordless's' comment, a 367 PtP at 600m resulting in 400Mbps is ONLY with clean RF at VHT80. if you have noise, or have to use narrower channels, that number will go down.
