The 802.11a standard operates in the 5 GHz Unlicensed National Information
Infrastructure (UNII) band, and the 802.11b/g standard in the 2.4 GHz band. The
802.11n standard operates in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.
Once the AP is installed and powered on, wireless clients can connect to the
802.11b/g/n radio interface using the 2.4 GHz band, or to the 802.11a/n radio using
the 5 GHz band. The radio and authentication settings for wireless clients can be
configured through management interfaces. For more information, refer to the
Management Guide.
