AdaptivMIMO technology provides flexible
configurations for fast 6 GHz adoption
ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ON), driving energy efficient
innovations, announced sampling of its new QCS-AX2 chipset family
that supports the 6GHz spectrum band based on the enhanced Wi-Fi 6E
standard. Designed with a high performance, flexible architecture
to maximize usage of the 6GHz band, the new product family is
optimized for high-throughput Wi-Fi applications, such as access
points, gateways, and mesh networking solutions for dense
environments and underserved areas.
The QCS-AX2 series is built on an integrated baseband and RF
(radio frequency) architecture that supports key Wi-Fi 6E features,
such as orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA),
advanced MU-MIMO (Multi-User, Multi-Input, Multi-Output), and
160MHz channel support for faster speeds, and SmartScan channel
selection for maximum band utilization. The new product portfolio
will include the following:
- QCS-AX2-A12: tri-band
(6GHz/5GHz/2.4GHz) with AdaptivMIMO technology supports flexible
8x8 or 4x4 configurations
- QCS-AX2-T12: tri-band concurrent 4x4
operation for high performance, cost-effective router solutions
- QCS-AX2-T8: tri-band concurrent
8-stream configurations for mesh nodes and mainstream access
points
As the Federal Communications Commission anticipates the opening
of the 6GHz band in the United States later this year, up to 1,200
MHz of newly available spectrum will be designated for Wi-Fi and
other unlicensed use. With almost 5 times of spectrum more than the
current 2.4 GHz and 5GHz bands combined, the 6GHz band is
accelerating the development of next generation Wi-Fi 6
applications. While the 6GHz client ecosystem takes time to build
out, Wi-Fi infrastructure devices, such as gateways, routers, and
access points will need to continue to support existing dual band
(2.4GHz/5GHz) clients; infrastructure applications such as 6GHz
backhaul between gateways and mesh nodes will lead deployments.
ON Semiconductor’s Wi-Fi 6E solutions are designed to
accommodate the transition to the 6GHz band with AdaptivMIMO
technology while addressing mainstream 6GHz applications. A Wi-Fi
6E infrastructure device with AdaptivMIMO allows the network to
operate in the 5GHz or 6GHz band depending on the clients present
in a subscriber’s home network to maximize performance, coverage,
and utilization. The QCS-AX2 series provides the Wi-Fi performance
and connectivity in congested environments to multiple devices that
applications demand.
“We are excited about the tremendous opportunities that Wi-Fi 6E
opens for the industry. We are in the forefront of building Wi-Fi
6E platforms that enable even better speed, efficiency and
performance for the Home, Enterprise, Automotive and IoT segments,”
said Irvind Ghai, Vice President of Marketing, Quantenna
Connectivity Solutions at ON Semiconductor. “ON Semiconductor is
dedicated to innovation in Wi-Fi technology, and will continue to
leverage its connectivity excellence to provide end-to-end
solutions that accelerate key Wi-Fi 6E ecosystems.”
“Our new generation of QCS-AX2 with AdaptivMIMO allows OEMs fast
time-to-market with optimized performance across the 3 bands. As
Wi-Fi 6E infrastructure proliferates, it will seed the 6GHz
ecosystems. Client devices will also benefit from improved
efficiency, lower latency and jitter, and less interference,
providing better user experience across applications and
environments,” said Simon Duxbury, General Manager & Vice
President, Quantenna Connectivity Solutions, ON Semiconductor.
ON Semiconductor is now sampling the QCS-AX2 solutions to
customers.
