Reference Manual for the NETGEAR ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG302

802.11a Wireless Channels

IEEE 802.11a utilizes 300 MHz of bandwidth in the 5 GHz Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (U-NII) band. Though the lower 200 MHz is physically contiguous, the FCC has divided the total 300 MHz into three distinct domains, each with a different legal maximum power output.

The WAG302 user can use thirteen channels in non-turbo mode.
