I’m not sure which 802.15 specification you are referring to, but 802.15.4 operates in 2.4 GHz or 868/915 MHz. This particular Assa Abloy PR100 lock product uses 802.15.4 at 2.4 GHz (by far the most prevalent frequency for 802.15.4 deployments): http://www.sargentlock.com/products/product_overview.php?item_id=2106 802.15.4 channels are 2 MHz, and can be deployed between 802.11 channels 1/6/11 at 2.4 GHz with some success. This is a good read on 802.11 2.4 GHz and 802.15.4 2.4 GHz coexistence. http://www.jennic.com/download_file.php?file=JN-AN-1079+Coexistence+of+IEEE+802.15.4+In+The+2.4GHz+Band-1v0.pdf -Josh ********** Participation and subscription information for this EDUCAUSE Constituent Group discussion list can be found at http://www.educause.edu/groups/.
