Requirements and Specifications for 2.4-GHz Radios on WLA532 Access Points

The 2.4-GHz band radio is operational from channels 1 through 14 in legacy IEEE standard
802.11bg or in IEEE 802.11n 3x3 from single to three spatial streams of 20 MHz channel
modes. At an MCS0 data rate, it provides 18 dBm transmit power per chain (200 mW,
combined 3-stream output power) and has a receive sensitivity of -95 dBm. At an MCS23
data rate, it provides 12 dBm transmit power per chain (50 mW, combined 3-stream
output power) and has a receive sensitivity of -75 dBm.

In the ceiling mount position, the WLA532 access point contains one vertically polarized
and two horizontally polarized single band 2.4-GHz antennas with 5-degree down tilt on
the antenna patterns with respect to the vertical axis and an omnidirectional pattern
with respect to the horizontal axis. These polarity diversity antennas maximize the MIMO
performance for the access point mounting positions.

mW, combined 3-stream output power) and has a receive sensitivity of -96 dBm (for 20
MHz) and -92 dBm (for 40 MHz). At an MCS23 data rate, it provides 12 dBm transmit
