Hi I got a datasheet for AIR-CAP3502I. Please see the below link. It looks like that the maximum speed is 300Mbps or 54Mbps. I am not sure which one is correct. How to explain the two rates? I would like to know what is its maximum speed. Thank you
802.11n Version 2.0: PHY data rates up to 300 Mbps
Data Rates Supported: 802.11a: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbps

It is 300 Mbps with 802.11n (802.11a/g max speed limited to 54Mbps). With 802.11n there are different possible data rates based on Modulation & Coding Scheme (MCS) it use.

Hi
The doc shows as follow:
802.11a: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbps |
|||||||
802.11g: 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, and 54 Mbps |
|||||||
802.11n data rates (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz): |
Which means, 802.11a and 802.11b reachs the maximum speed of 54Mbps, they are legacy protocol.
802.11n, which is newer then those, can reach up to 300 Mbps but it depends on which MCS index you device is and the channel width.
802.11n uses a different form do achieve the data rates.
-If I helped you somehow, please, rate it as useful.-

Thank you so much for you both explanation! Do you think it is possible? if we put two AP together (for test, we can put two AP1131, which can reach maximum speed 54Mpbs without 802.11n) then the users can get traffic from two AP, that would be increase speed on users side. I dont think it is possible. but i do not know its clear explanation on it. Can you explain?
