{{efn-ua|name=80211ns_sgi2| For single-user cases only, based on default [[guard interval]] which is 0.8 microseconds. Since multi-user via [[OFDMA]] has become available for 802.11ax, these may decrease. Also, these theoretical values depend on the link distance, whether the link is line-of-sight or not, interferences and the [[Multipath routing|multi-path]] components in the environment.}}
{{efn-ua|name=80211ns_sgi3| The default [[guard interval]] is 0.8 microseconds. However, 802.11ax extended the maximum available [[guard interval]] to 3.2 microseconds, in order to support Outdoor communications, where the maximum possible propagation delay is larger compared to Indoor environments.}}
