GEC NEWS WIREQualcomm Technologies is launching an end-to-end 802.11ax portfolio, which includes the IPQ8074 system-on-chip for network infrastructure and QCA6290 solution for client devices.
802.11ax, the next-generation Wi-Fi standard, focuses primarily on expanding network capacity and making better use of Wi-Fi spectrum to maintain excellent connectivity in more complex environments.
“CAPACITY – not peak speed – has become the most important measure of a network’s ability to handle the ever-increasing demands of today’s diverse mix of application and services,” said Rahul Patel, senior vice president & general manager, connectivity, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
We are looking forward to working with Qualcomm Technologies to bring this exciting new technology to market” said Michael Cubbage, CEO, Rivet Networks.
QCA6290 is designed to enhance connected experiences, such as 4K Ultra HD video streaming and video-conferences, content sharing, social media and file transfers. The combination of DBS with the increased capacity and throughput also allows for improved experiences in vehicles, including Gigabit in-car Wi-Fi hotspot, content sharing between brought-in devices and the car’s infotainment system, and support for multiple video streams along with screen mirroring.
