In today's Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) deployment environment, 2.4 GHz has become increasingly saturated, and there are only three non-overlapping 20 MHz channels at 2.4 GHz. The 5GHz band is not as crowded as it is at 2.4GHz. There are 23 non-overlapping 20 MHz channels, 9 non-overlapping 40 MHz channels and 4 non-overlapping 80 MHz channels at 5 GHz.

More and more WiFi devices on the market currently support the 802.11n and 802.11ac protocols, which include an access point (AP) and a terminal (STA). WiFi devices that support the 802.11n and 802.11ac protocols have dual-band capability, or can switch between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, or can run on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz.
