Separate a specification from a result
A product specification describes an instrument’s capability. A measured result describes one device in one configured test. MT-C24’s up-to-5-Gbps figure at 6 GHz is not a promise that every access point will achieve that throughput.
Compare like with like
Keep standard, band, bandwidth, client count, traffic direction and RF path consistent when comparing devices. The MT-Wave datasheet compares a Wi-Fi 6E and a Wi-Fi 7 access point with the client set to 802.11ax on 6 GHz.
Read more than the final number
Correlate throughput with available RSSI, MCS, retries and connection events. A change in rate selection or recovery behaviour can explain a result that a single average hides.
Keep capture limits visible
Packet-level analysis depends on what the radio and driver supply. Noise and SNR need valid metadata. Airtime estimates, NAV reservations and physical clear-channel-assessment busy time represent different measurements.
Preserve the test boundary
State the DUT, firmware, duration, RF conditions and acceptance criteria with the result. Retain the raw evidence for a repeat test. Coverage claims should identify the selected standard edition and agreed case matrix.
