Maximum Power Levels and Antenna Gains
IEEE 802.11a
An improper combination of power level and antenna gain can result in equivalent isotropic radiated
power (EIRP) above the amount allowed per regulatory domain.
Table E-3 indicates the maximum EIRP
supported for all regulatory domains for each 5 GHz IEEE 802.11a data rate.
IEEE 802.11b
An improper combination of power level and antenna gain can result in equivalent isotropic radiated
power (EIRP) above the amount allowed per regulatory domain.
Table E-4 indicates the maximum EIRP
supported for all regulatory domains for each 2.4 GHz IEEE 802.11b data rate.
