They have a Wireless MiniPCI Card 802.11a+b+g 

"This universal Multi-Band (2.4 GHz, 2.5-2.7 GHz, 5.2-5.8 GHz) 
MiniPCI operates in any existing IEEE wireless standard. It minimizes 
any potential confusion or incompatibilities caused by having three 
separate wireless devices. The Multi-Band MiniPCI enables users 
to build wide and high-speed networks with great amount of wireless 
clients. The new IEEE 802.11g standard increases the data rate of 
IEEE 802.11b networks from 11 Mbps to 54 Mbps. The 5G/AGP 
includes miniPCI Wireless card and pigtail."

Tha card have the chpset Atheros AR5211, AR 5111 and AR 2111

In the KN-200 spec. I have read that it support Atheros AR5211.
On the KN200 backside there is a miniPCI conector. Does this work?

My question is. 
Can I use this MiniPCI card from Microtik on tha KN-200 board?

If this work, many of our backbone problem are solved!
I then can use the 5 GHz band for the link and 2.4 GHz to the 
costumers on the same time on the KN-200. With this solutions 
it is possible to build inexpensive and fast backbones!

If not, is it possible to get support for this miniPCI card 
and if when?
