Channel Width Settings

Channel Width Settings

The 6GHz band allows network administrators to deploy 14 non-overlapping channels of 80MHz. This number of channels enables flexibility of AP Layout coverage design without the legacy-bands practices which must make compromises on the channel width. This enables the 6GHz WLAN  environment to maintain less network congestion, thus yielding better application performance and overall user experience. For this reason, it is recommended to use 80MHz channel widths.
The chart below depicts how the throughput of the 80MHz recommended setting is four times higher than the 20MHz.
