WiFi 6 – or 802.11ax – is the latest and the best wireless networking standard and its arrival means that users won’t need to be kept waiting for their devices to respond in higher density environments.
With WiFi 6 there is no contention, no waiting, no degradation in performance. This improvement – along with the much faster, multi-gigabit speeds that it delivers – make WiFi 6 a great technology for any organization that often has many users and devices connected simultaneously.
Expand capacity, maximize speed, minimize jitter
Increases the capacity of a wireless network by between 200~500%
Faster speed – connections will be as much as 25% faster
Smoother and clear voice and video calls, conference sessions and streaming
Consistent performance – for every user, every time, no matter how many devices are connected
Who can benefit most from an upgrade to WiFi 6?
There are plenty of reasons why upgrading to WiFi 6 makes sense and for many organizations there will be immediate and very tangible benefits.

DATA RATE
INCREASE
1024-QAM
The newest modulation standard with each coding symbol containing more bytes of data than 256-QAM, resulting in a 25% data rate increase.

10 Gbps WiFi Capability
11ax dual-band (2.4 GHz + 5 GHz) technology helps you overcome the limitations of single while maximizing each band’s merits. Used in combination with the 1024-QAM, it increases maximum physical (PHY) data transfer speeds to 10 Gbps.
MULTIPLE

SIMULTANEOUSLY
DL/UL MU-MIMO
When compared to the previous standard, 11ax offers MU-MIMO support both in the downlink and the uplink direction, allowing client data transmissions to be simultaneously received by the AP.

DL/UL OFDMA
The OFDMA feature allows the AP to assign different parts of the spectrum to different users, improving traffic coordination and rational spectrum usage.

Resource Unit Scheduling
Rationalizing transmission channel usage by allocating and scheduling the resource units allows transmission channels to be reused.

EFFICIENCY
Target Wake-up Time
The AP coordinates transmission times from different sources, allowing devices to sleep during the non-transmission periods since there is no need to be awake and monitor beacons sent by the AP.
