54 Mbps - 5GHz 802.11a = A54 class

Overview

The device has an additional model name of DW-690.

At least one model (KA22002020018-1) redirects to PPD-AR5BCB-00021 (Atheros AR5BCB-00021)

Despite the fact that the device uses the FCC ID of the AR5001A reference design, the device appears [1] to instead use AR5210 (the drivers do not reference 168c:0011).
