-802.11a/g/n/ac: BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM,256-QAM
Transmit Power Adjustment
Software configurable in increments of 0.5 dBm.
Maximum Available Transmit
Power**
Maximum (aggregate, conducted total) transmit power
(limited by local regulatory requirements):
-2.4GHz band: +21 dBm (18 dBm per chain)
-5 GHz band: +21 dBm (18 dBm per chain)
-Note: conducted transmit power levels exclude antenna gain.
For total (EIRP) transmit power, add antenna gain + correlation gain.

802.11a/g: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54
802.11n: 6.5 to 300 (MCS0 to MCS15)
802.11ac: 6.5 to 867 (MCS0 to MCS9, NSS = 1 to 2)
802.11n high-throughput (HT) support: HT20/40
802.11ac very high throughput (VHT) support: VHT20/40/80
802.11n/ac packet aggregation: A-MPDU, A-MSDU
Wi-Fi Antennas
Two vertically polarized dual-band downtilt omni-directional antennas
for 2x2 MIMO with peak antenna gain of 3.3dBi (2.4GHz) and 5.9dBi
(5GHz) per antenna.
Combining the patterns of both antennas per radio, the peak gain of the
average (effective) pattern is 2.1dBi in 2.4GHz and 4.6dBi in 5GHz.
**The aggregate EIRP is limited to 20dBm (100mW).
