means the manufacturer doesn't list it, which isn't the same as the product lacking it.
OpenWrt
No support found. Checked against OpenWrt's own Table of Hardware, which carries no qualifying row for this model. That is a weaker statement than "this router cannot run OpenWrt" and a much stronger one than silence.
No ToH row for any current Ubiquiti entry. The UniFi gateway line runs UniFi OS on proprietary hardware, and OpenWrt's Ubiquiti coverage is entirely older AirMax and UniFi AP gear.

What is MU-MIMO?
Table stakes46 of 79 listed here
Lets the router hold separate conversations with several devices at once using different antenna streams.
Look at instead: the stream count on each radio — a 4×4 radio has twice the streams of a 2×2 to hand out
Full entry → - 160 MHz channels
What is 160 MHz channels?
Table stakes47 of 79 listed here
A double-width channel that roughly doubles throughput when the airwaves are clear enough to sustain it.
Look at instead: whether the band has room for it — on 5 GHz that almost always means DFS
Full entry → - 320 MHz channels
What is 320 MHz channels?
Worth comparing23 of 79 listed here
Wi-Fi 7's double-again channel width, available only on 6 GHz, where there is finally enough spectrum to fit it.
Look at instead: whether you own 6 GHz devices, and whether they will be in the same room as the router
