Mesh backhaul band is dynamic, so no radio is a dedicated backhaul. Stored 2402 Mbps for both 160 MHz radios, the 802.11ax rate for 2x2 at 160 MHz. The review's 5400 Mbps total fits 574 + 2402 + 2402. Conflicts: Tom's Guide says only a single 5 GHz 160 MHz channel is usable, and the UK, Australia and Canada store pages say AXE4200, which would fit one 160 MHz band and one 80 MHz band. The US maker page says AXE5400.

The 802.11be rates for 4 streams are 11529 Mbps at 320 MHz and 8647 Mbps at 240 MHz, so the V3 page figures are stored. WiFi Capacity row: 4x4 MU-MIMO and 12 Streams, so 4 streams per band. The footnote says 320 MHz is only on 6 GHz and that 160 and 240 MHz may not be available on 5 GHz in some regions, so 240 MHz is the widest 5 GHz channel. Dong Knows Tech lists 20/40 MHz on 2.4 GHz, 20/40/160/240 MHz on 5 GHz and 20/40/160/320 MHz on 6 GHz. Every radio serves devices.
