Strange SSID being broadcast from my Deco M4 network

Model: Deco  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version: 1.4.3

Just installed a 3 pack M4 system.  Using a wi-fi analyzer, I noticed that the system is broadcasting 2 SSID's.  Let's say my SSID, set up on the M4's, is "FRED". 

 

The analyzer shows the correct SSID "FRED" but, also shows a second SSID of "[HIDDEN] on FRED".  From what I see,  "[HIDDEN] on FRED" is only on the 5g band.

 

Any ideas would be most helpful.

@gwinegarden this is an hidden network from all decos, to manage network flow and devices and bakchaul wifi between spots. Only decos spots use this. All of then!
