5.2-GHz AP Cluster Recommended Channels
Three non-overlapping channels are recommended for use in a 5.2-GHz AP cluster:
(All Frequencies in GHz)
5.275
5.300
5.325
5.4-GHz FSK Channels
Channel selections for the AP in the 5.4-GHz FSK frequency band range depend on whether the
AP is deployed in cluster.
5.4-GHz BH and Single AP Available
A BH or single 5.4-GHz FSK AP can operate in the following channels, which are separated by 5-
MHz.

The channels of adjacent APs should be separated by at least 20 MHz, especially for CAP 130s to
take advantage of 2X operation.
5.4-GHz AP Cluster Recommended Channels
The fully populated cluster requires only three channels, each reused by the module that is
mounted 180° opposed. In this frequency band range, the possible sets of three non-overlapping
channels are numerous. As many as 11 non-overlapping 20-MHz wide channels are available for
1X operation. Fewer 25-MHz wide channels are available for 2X operation, where this greater
separation is recommended for interference avoidance.
