As a result of increasing demand for high data applications such
as streaming media/TV/audio, social media and smart home devices,
there has been an initiative to open up additional frequency bands
to complement the existing 2.4 and 5 GHz bands. This new spectrum
is expected to be made available by regulators around the world and
it represents an opportunity to deliver the benefits of Wi-Fi 6
coupled with increased bandwidth available in the new 6 GHz
band.
“The 6 GHz band addresses the growing need for Wi-Fi spectrum
capacity to ensure users continue to experience reliable and
seamless connectivity,” said Kevin Robinson, SVP of Marketing,
Wi-Fi Alliance. “We are glad to see Wi-Fi Alliance members working
closely in Wi-Fi Alliance to ensure that new products meet high
standards for interoperability and security.”
“Skyworks is leveraging our expertise to produce connectivity
solutions that address the insatiable demand for more data and the
ever-evolving needs of the market,” said Dave Stasey, vice
president and general manager of diversified analog solutions for
Skyworks. “We look forward to continuing our tradition of
innovation and providing the highest performance solutions for our
OEM customers which deliver maximum Wi-Fi range and speeds.”
In a new article published by RF Globalnet, Skyworks’ experts
explain the 6 GHz band, along with its uses and benefits. With
decades of experience developing cutting-edge technologies for
successive wireless standards, Skyworks works in partnership with
members of the Wi-Fi Alliance and provides guidance on FCC
proceedings regarding upcoming protocols.
