3.12 Wi-Fi specifications
Wi-Fi is a term used to categorize WLAN devices based on the IEEE 802.11
standard. Only products certified as meeting this standard are called Wi-Fi.
Specifically, the certification process requires conformance to the IEEE 802.11 radio
standards as well as the WPA and WPA2 security standards.
According to the Alcatel-Lucent implementation of Wi-Fi for ONTs, the following
requirements must be met:
• Wi-Fi certified for IEEE 802.11a
• maximum transmit power (EIRP) equal to or greater than 200 mW (23.01 dBm)
when operating in 802.11b mode
• Wi-Fi certified for Wi-Fi Multimedia (WMM) subset function of 802.11e
• Wi-Fi certified for Power Save, the U-APSD function of 802.11e
• maximum transmit power (EIRP) equal to or greater than 100 mW (20 dBm)
when operating in 802.11g mode
• supports an 802.11h wireless access point
• supports WEP using a 104-bit key as identified in 802.11i
• Wi-Fi certified for WPA2-Personal that implements the mandatory elements of
802.11i
• Wi-Fi certified for WPA2-Enterprise
• 802.11g/n processing should not degrade the committed LAN-LAN and/or
LAN-WAN throughput rate

Standards and
amendments
Description
IEEE 802.11 A set of standards carrying out WLAN computer communication in
the 2.4, 3.6, and 5 GHz frequency bands. The amendments in this
table are Wi-Fi specific.
IEEE 802.11a An amendment to the 802.11 specification adding a higher data rate
of up to 54 Mb/s using the 5 GHz band
IEEE 802.11b An amendment to the 802.11 specification extending throughput to
up to 11 Mb/s using the 2.4 GHz band
IEEE 802.11e An amendment to the 802.11 specification defining a set of QoS
enhancements for wireless LAN applications through modifications
to the MAC layer
IEEE 802.11g An amendment to the 802.11 specification extending throughput to
up to 54 Mb/s using the same 2.4 GHz band as 802.11b
IEEE 802.11h An amendment to the 802.11 specification for spectrum transit
power management extensions that regulate interference with
satellites and radar using the 5 GHz frequency band
IEEE 802.11i An amendment to the 802.11 specification defining security
mechanisms for wireless networks
