As long as you choose the right connectors (N Type)... everything is compatible

thanx for replay :)

But are you sure that there are no problems with Amplifiers work from 100 mW to 3 Watt and R52 Cards ?

thanx again

Why are you amplifying... Do you have long LMR runs?

If at all possible remove the amplifiers, shorten your LMR runs to 3-6' (1-2m), and save yourself the money.

Use that saved money to purchase some higher quality antenna's.. check out Radiowaves, Inc.

You can get them at any Talley Communications or Tessco Communications Distributor.

You might also want to try a RB600

http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=27231

it can handle some higher layer protocols, instead of just using it as a L2 Bridge... maybe take some load off your MTik "server"..

If you take any of my advise I'd definitely remove the Amps if at all possible.. One less point of failure at the physical layer.. and also one less ingress point for noise and worst of all WATER! :)
