In this evolution of Wi-Fi 6 series, we look at the benefits of the standard for new and legacy devices and the feature set arriving in Wave 1 and Wave 2.

1024-QAM enables a 25% data rate increase in Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) access points and devices. By varying both the phase and the amplitude of the radio waves, the technology improves spectral efficiency by incorporating more data into each transmission. This is crucial for consistently serving a large number of clients.

The Ruckus Multi-Gigabit Solutions Portfolio includes the R720 802.11ac Wave 2 AP and, for ultra-high density wireless deployments, the R730 802.11ax AP, as well as the entry-level ICX 7150 and top-of-the-line ICX 7650. Our solutions leverage innovative technology to exceed the most demanding wireless requirements.

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) is designed for high-density connectivity and offers up to a fourfold capacity increase over its Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) predecessor.

Stadium access points should leverage additional technologies to maximize limited spectrum, ensure robust connections and bolster bandwidth for flawless 4K streaming. Specific examples of AP features that go well beyond the 802.11ax standard include airtime decongestion to reduce unnecessary traffic.

With the emergence of 802.11ax, we're left wondering why higher Wi-Fi bandwidth is still so elusive. Join us for a lesson in Wi-Fi RF signals, with a spotlight on NanoSemi’s linearization technology for delivering better performance and lower power.

To take full advantage of the speed performance offered by 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) APs (up to 5 gigabits per second), our customers have already begun installing multi-gigabit switches to either replace or supplement older infrastructure. From our perspective, the transition to multi-gigabit switches should start now.

The transition to multi-gigabit switches should start now to coincide with the introduction of Wi-Fi 6. With the approaching avalanche of IoT connections, higher speed in the wired infrastructure is critical to prevent bottlenecks and maintain optimal network performance.

eSports stadiums and arenas present an extremely demanding environment for wireless networks. 802.11ax will help, but legacy devices with similar efficiencies can bridge the gap to adoption and future proof your infrastructure. Our proprietary features give stadiums the edge they need in a highly competitive market.

Take an in-depth look at the evolution of Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), the latest iteration in the IEEE 802.11 standard, and the technologies that empower it.
