When to design for dual 5 GHz access point use             

Summary:   
Since the 2.4 GHz space is over crowed, including many non-80211 devices, the  5 GHz band has become much more popular for WLAN usage.  Access point vendors have realized this and have begun building and selling 5 GHz only dual radio access points.  This creates additional design considerations when building your wireless networks.       

Agenda: 

  • Introduction 
  • Why should I consider or use dual 5 GHz access points?
  • More channels
  • More collision domains
  • Increased airtime
  • How to design for dual 5 GHz access points
  • What about legacy 2.4 GHz clients
  • Next steps,  Q&A
