TL-WA7210N 2.4GHz 150Mbps Outdoor Wireless Access Point User Guide Appendix C: Specifications General Standards and Protocols IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.11b, 802.11g and 802.
TL-WA7210N 2.4GHz 150Mbps Outdoor Wireless Access Point User Guide Appendix D: Glossary 802.11n - 802.11n builds upon previous 802.11 standards by adding MIMO (multiple-input multiple-output). MIMO uses multiple transmitter and receiver antennas to allow for increased data throughput via spatial multiplexing and increased range by exploiting the spatial diversity, perhaps through coding schemes like Alamouti coding. The Enhanced Wireless Consortium (EWC) was formed to help accelerate the IEEE 802.
TL-WA7210N 2.4GHz 150Mbps Outdoor Wireless Access Point User Guide Alliance (WICA), comprising more than 300 companies, whose products are certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance, based on the IEEE 802.11 standards (also called Wireless LAN (WLAN) and Wi-Fi). This certification warrants interoperability between different wireless devices. WISP - Wireless Internet Service Providers (WISPs) are Internet service providers with networks built around wireless networking.
