About This Item
IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006 is a wireless LAN amendment within the ISO/IEC/IEEE 8802-11 family, focused on further higher data rate extension in the 2.4 GHz band. It addresses the MAC and PHY specifications used in communication, networking and broadcast technologies, making it relevant where interoperability and performance in legacy 2.4 GHz WLAN environments matter. As a superseded standard, it is most useful for understanding design intent, historical compliance, and equipment support tied to IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006.
Overview of IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006
This amendment extends the wireless LAN framework for 2.4 GHz operation, building on the IEEE 802.11g-2003 technical base referenced in the subtitle. It covers the medium access control and physical layer behavior needed to support higher data rates while remaining within the broader IEEE 8802-11 specification structure. For teams reviewing specifications, procurement requirements, or technical documentation, IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006 helps define the expected transmission behavior and compatibility context for related WLAN products.
Typical use cases
This standard is commonly relevant to wireless access points, client adapters, and embedded radio modules designed for 2.4 GHz local area networking. It may also be used when checking legacy equipment support, comparing device specifications, or reviewing historical test requirements for WLAN implementations. In communication and networking environments, IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006 can help frame product selection and validation where higher data rate operation in the 2.4 GHz band is part of the design target.
Why it matters
IEEE 8802-11:2005/AMD4-2006 matters because it provides a defined technical basis for compatibility, performance expectations, and implementation consistency in wireless LAN systems. For manufacturers and integrators, the standard supports clearer design control and more reliable testing against the intended MAC and PHY behavior. For buyers and compliance teams, it can reduce ambiguity when evaluating legacy WLAN equipment or documentation. Using the correct standard reference also helps avoid mismatched assumptions in procurement and verification work.
