Normally on radio higher frequency uses less energy (and reach less distance and is more directive) Actually, higher frequencies get you less distance for the same power and whether it's more directional depends entirely on the antenna. At higher frequencies, it's easier to make directional antennas, because

Forgot to mention, there may be less interference at 5 GHz, permitting greater range.
