Note: Actual power consumption may vary depending on access point usage. It is recommended that you ensure that Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP)/Cisco Discovery Protocol is enabled to allow proper power negotiation.

Note: FB is Full Band, LB is Lower UNII Bands (UNII 1 and 2) and HB is Higher UNII Bands (UNII 2E and 3).

Note: In countries where use of the 6-GHz band is not allowed or there is no current software support, the 6-GHz radio will be disabled. The radio may be enabled with future software, once the product is certified to operate in 6 GHz for that country.

Note: In some countries dual 5GHz operations are only possible if there is allowed use of UNII 1 and 2 outdoor.
