5 GHz Wi-Fi equipment
5 GHz only
— devices using the 5 GHz band only.This band was introduced as a faster and more noise-free alternative to 2.4 GHz, it really allows you to increase the speed and improve the reliability of communications. In terms of standards, 5GHz is the only frequency in Wi-Fi 5 and one of the operating frequencies in Wi-Fi 4 and Wi-Fi 6; (however, the latest standard, by definition, provides several bands, so only 5 GHz Wi-Fi 6 devices do not exist in principle).
In general, the purchase of such equipment will be justified if all available wireless devices are guaranteed to support 5 GHz. If there is no such confidence, it is better to pay attention to solutions with several operating ranges.
