1.3 Glossary
802.11 standard
A family of wireless Local Area Network specifications. The 802.11b standard in particular is seeing widespread
acceptance and deployment in corporate campuses as well as commercial facilities such as airports and coffee
shops that want to offer wireless networking service to their patrons.
802.11a
An IEEE specification for wireless networking that operates in the 5 GHz frequency range (5.725 GHz to 5.850 GHz)
with a maximum of 54 Mbps data transfer rate. The 5 GHz frequency band is not as crowded as the 2.4 GHz
frequency, because the 802.11a specification offers more radio channels than the 802.11b. These additional
channels can help avoid radio and microwave interference.
