The increasing number of connected personal devices and IoT devices has led to an overall increase in network density, pushing the limits of the current WiFi standard. The latest WiFi 6 (802.11ax) provides future-proof technologies, higher network performance, faster Wi-Fi speeds, greater coverage, and improved battery life for connected devices, delivering a significantly better networking experience for users.

With a revolutionary combination of OFDMA and MU-MIMO technology, WiFi 6 (802.11ax) provides up to 4 times greater network capacity and efficiency in high-traffic environments. The previous generation WiFi 5 (802.11ac) can only handle one device at a time on each network channel, which is an inefficient use of available bandwidth. OFDMA support in WiFi 6 divides each channel into smaller sub-channels, allowing signals from multiple devices to be grouped and transmitted simultaneously, reducing latency for a smoother, more flexible WiFi experience.
