Hi Sebastian, There is no explicit channel width restriction in the document, however the only band in which the current regdb rules permit 160MHz operation (5490-5710MHz) would result in an overlap with the restricted weather radar band 5600-5650MHz. While remaining in compliance with both 802.11 and Australian law, contiguous 160MHz operation in 5GHz is only permitted between 5170-5330MHz which spans two bands with slightly different requirements, hence AUTO-BW.
