Its 802.11ac capable, so it has to be a 5 ghz capable device.
Appears to be to be a typo or cut and paste error. You remove "Not recommended for new design" and the sentence then makes sense.
lol... it's one of the better (hilarious) copy and paste errors I've seen recently too... as the words "Not Recommended" aren't even in the linked datasheet!!! So I don't know where that snuck in from. But yeah, its a three year old part that looks pretty sweet as it does 5Ghz, 2.4Ghz, and Bluetooth 4.1/EDR. Would certainly be a nice upgrade for the pine64 wifi with the speced 867 Mbps data rate (which it would naturally only achieve in the lab under ideal conditions. Maybe worth considering as a 5Ghz wifi option?
