Band Steering: This technology enables wireless devices to connect to the most optimal frequency band (2.4 GHz or 5 GHz) by encouraging capable devices to switch to the less congested 5 GHz band. This improves overall network performance and prevents overcrowding on the 2.4 GHz band.

Wireless LAN controller (B): This manages multiple access points in a network but does not handle frequency optimization.

Directional antenna (C): This focuses the signal in a specific direction but does not affect frequency selection.

Autonomous access point (D): This operates independently but lacks advanced features like band steering.
