Real world PTP goodput numbers?

Just dropped in our first carrier-grade PTP link using Cambium PTP500's. 40MHz non-DFS channel.

the link is less than half a mile, clear LOS between radios but not much (if any) clearance in the Fresnel zone. Still, -45db RSSI, >99% frames sent in MCS8 or 9, and zero dropped frames up or down.

integrated link test shows 270-280Mbps. this is more than enough for this use case, but I'm curious how this compares to other similar links? I have no frame of reference here, and the marketing numbers are all bullshit.
