At 71-76GHz it’s about a 4mm wavelength in the E band. These kind of signals can’t penetrate much and throughput will be significantly reduced in bad weather. They are also used primarily in terrestrial fixed links because aiming is difficult (as you must know having worked with other brands in this band). However this is a 240 node flat panel array with electronic beam steering, so it’s able to maintain its own aiming and the throughput would remain decent if its aimed in the general direction since it has about 5 degrees of high power spray. At 32DBI it’s going to do about 50% of the 10gbps over 3-5km and down to mbps over around 15km or more.
After looking at it in more detail it’s cooler than I originally thought, but it’s not doing anything that hasn’t been done before.
I found the data sheet
