Cisco Mesh Access Points User Manual

Frequency Bands
Both the 2.4-GHz and 5-GHz frequency bands are supported on the indoor and outdoor access points.
Additionally, the 4.9-GHz public safety band is supported on AP1524PS.
Figure 8: Frequency Bands Supported By 802.11a Radios on AP1520s
The 5-GHz band is a conglomerate of three bands in the USA: 5.150 to 5.250 (UNII-1), 5.250 to 5.350
(UNII-2), 5.470 to 5.725 (UNII-2 Extended), and 5.725 to 5.850 (ISM). UNII-1 and the UNII-2 bands are
contiguous and are treated by 802.11a as being a continuous swath of spectrum 200-MHz wide, more than
twice the size of the 2.4-GHz band (see Table 6: Frequency Band , on page 24).
The 4.9 GHz is a public safety channel within the 5-MHz (channels 1 to 10), 10-MHz (channels 11 to 19),
and 20-MHz (channels 20 to 26) bandwidths.
The –D domain, which is the country domain for India, supports the following:
• 20-MHz channels—169 (5.845 GHz) and 173 (5.865 GHz)
• 40-MHz channels—The channel pair 169/173 (5.855 GHz)
The frequency depends on the regulatory domain in which the access point is installed. For additional
information, see the Channels and Power Levels document at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/
access_point/channels/lwapp/reference/guide/lw_chp2.html.
