how fluidmesh co-exist with 5GHz AP?

[Kae Hsueh]

I have a remote village case required unlicensed backhaul to provide Wi-Fi access. I am leaning to Fluidmesh but need to understand how Fluidmesh can coexist with Wi-Fi AP since they seems to operate at the same spectrum. Just need to have high level understanding

Looking this example here is the same frequency. But, they can coexist as you have the possibility of use different channels.

 Use one channel for backhaul and leave the others to wifi client.  5.0ghz have 19 non-overlapping channels is you use 20 Mhz channel.

Here is a very good Ciscolive presentation that you should watch. You can watch recorded session on ciscolive.com
https://www.ciscolive.com/c/dam/r/ciscolive/emea/docs/2023/pdf/BRKIOT-2601.pdf 

Then you can get a good idea Cisco URWB (formally known as fluidmesh) helps in your design. If your application needs 0ms handoff (like critical environment like ports, autonomous vehicle,ect) then Cisco URWB helps. 

Spectrum point of view you have to allocate non overlapping channels to minimise CCI
