Wi-Fi® 6

Affordability meets reliability with optimized features for network efficiency and power saving

Wi-Fi 6, also known as 802.11ax, is the latest generation of Wi-Fi technology. It offers several improvements over its predecessors, Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), such as better performance in congested environments, lower latency, and higher power efficiency. These improvements are possible through new features like Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and Target Wake Time (TWT). Wi-Fi 6's ability to handle a high density of connected devices with reduced latency and interference makes it an ideal solution for the expanding IoT landscape, enabling seamless integration and performance.
