The Beacon is a dual-band 2x2 AC1200 system that can reach maximum data rates of up to 300Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and up to 867Mbps on the 5GHz band. It uses 802.11ac Wave 2 technology with support for MU-MIMO (simultaneous data streaming) and beamforming (direct-to-client signal transmissions). It also supports automatic band steering, where the system decides which radio band to use, but you have the option to assign a radio band to each device if you prefer.
