AWE can be used to detect, find, and connect to 802.11ac access points. Just like with
other network devices, the 802 AWE provides information such as channel number, SSID,
standard, security, max speed, channel width and number of streams for 802.11ac network
devices. The 802 AWE can also connect to 802.11ac access points at 802.11n speeds
using 20 or 40 MHz channels with 64 QAM modulation in the 5 GHz frequency band over a
1x1 MIMO stream.
