<div>There are a number of wireless vendors and lab setups that would tend to disagree with that, but alas, it's conjecture until it's to be seen in the market.

802.11ac wave 2 doesn't need multigigabit in an enterprise environment. <br>
I've gone on about this almost a year ago [1], but the short version is <br>
that real-world performance won't exceed 1Gbps full-duplex, and you're <br>
better off having many APs than big powerful ones since the high rates are <br>
extremely distance limited. Worst case you could run two cables, the <br>
high-end APs all come with two ethernet ports these days.<br>
<br>
Now, 802.11ax, or "High Efficiency WLAN" which is learning from the <br>
lessons of 802.11ac and trying to improve real-world performance <br>
instead of just the headline numbers, might change things. But that's <br>
another 2+ years away.<br>
