Wi-Fi 6E is an extension of Wi-Fi 6 (also known as 802.11ax), which enables the operation of features in the 6GHz band, in addition to the existing 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. The 6GHz frequency band provides additional spectrum to increase the efficiency and performance for the growing density needs of Wi-Fi devices.
The 6 GHz radio band provides greater capacity and better performance with higher data rates and low delays for a better overall user experience. In addition to the existing features available under Wi-Fi 6 standard, such as Uplink/Downlink MU-MIMO, OFDMA and TWT, Wi-Fi 6E supports Multiple BSSID functionality, Reduced Neighbor Report, greater number of channels, and wider Channel Widths.
The combined benefits of the Wi-Fi 6E features, utilized in the 1200MHz additional spectrum, enable boosting applications performance and quality in enterprise use-cases, while the connected device is roaming around in the ever-dynamic Wi-Fi environment, such as Retail, Healthcare, Education, Manufacturing and Warehousing.
