Qorvo, a leading provider of innovative RF solutions that connect the world, introduced two Wi-Fi 6E front end modules (FEMs) designed to maximize throughput and range in high-bandwidth applications such as 8K video streaming, online gaming, and virtual reality.
Wi-Fi 6E is an extension of Wi-Fi 6 that operates in the recently opened 6 GHz frequency band, in addition to the traditional 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Wi-Fi 6E triples Wi-Fi capacity with the contiguous spectrum to accommodate 7 additional 160 MHz-wide channels or 14 additional 80 MHz channels. Qorvo’s Wi-Fi 6E FEMs unleash the full potential of this new spectrum, delivering leading linearity performance and maximizing throughput and capacity at peak permissible indoor power levels.
The Qorvo QPF4656 and QPF4632 deliver robust and rugged performance with world-class energy efficiency, and the highest speed and throughput at the maximum power levels supported by Wi-Fi 6E’s extended bandwidth. The QPF4656 is designed for consumer Wi-Fi 6E routers and gateways. The QPF4632 is designed for enterprise power-over-ethernet (POE) Wi-Fi 6E products and applications.
The Qorvo Wi-Fi 6E FEMs deliver up to 25% more power-efficient than current solutions in compact packaging, enabling cost, size, and thermal performance advantages in consumer and enterprise wireless networking solutions. They enable high-bandwidth applications with faster data speeds and lower latency and in smaller, more rugged form factors. Consumers and businesses will see significant improvements in home entertainment, gaming, and social experiences.
The QPF4656 and QPF4632 FEMs are sampling now. Qorvo’s Wi-Fi portfolio serves a broad range of products from flagship smartphones and tablets to consumer and enterprise gateway and smart home applications. Qorvo’s Wi-Fi 6 solutions enable significantly faster wireless upload and download speeds, increased capacity, and improved power efficiency.
