MediaTek, an early adopter of Wi-Fi 7 technology, has now developed the most extensive WiFi 7 portfolio of any company with the introduction of the Filogic 860 and Filogic 360 solutions. Collectively, these second-generation additions aim to expand MediaTek's platform of state-of-the-art products that leverage the latest and latest developments in connectivity technology to offer optimal performance and continuous dependability.
Filogic 860 combines a Wi-Fi 7 dual-band access point with a new advanced network processor solution and is ideal for enterprise access points, service provider Ethernet gateways and mesh nodes, as well as retail and IoT router applications. Filogic 360 is a stand-alone client solution that integrates Wi-Fi 7 2x2 and dual Bluetooth 5.4 radios in a single chip and is designed to deliver next-generation Wi-Fi 7 connectivity to edge devices, streaming devices and a vast array of other consumer electronics.
"MediaTek stands out with the most comprehensive connectivity portfolio on the market, and we're continuing this legacy with our two new advanced Wi-Fi 7 solutions designed for mainstream applications," said Alan Hsu, corporate vice president and general manager of the Intelligent Connectivity Business at MediaTek. "Filogic 860 and Filogic 360 offers the same technology as our premium solutions with exceptional reliability in busy network environments, ultra-fast speeds with reduced latency and enhanced range."
For the enterprise and retail markets, Filogic 860 provides a complete platform for a dual-band Wi-Fi 7 access point, router and mesh node solution. Building upon the success of its first-generation design, Filogic 860 is equipped with a triple-core Arm Cortex-A73 CPU that supports powerful hardware acceleration for advanced tunneling and security features to meet enterprise, service provider requirements.
Featuring industry-leading 6nm low-power Wi-Fi, the Filogic 860 platform offers leading-edge connectivity. Single-MAC MLO support, 4096-QAM, and MRU enabling dual-band Wi-Fi 7 at 7.2Gbps. The platform provides dual-band, dual-concurrent 4T4R for 2.4GHz up to BW40 and 5T5R 4SS for 5GHz up to BW160. An extra receive antenna via zero-wait DFS and Filogic Xtra range support increase reception distance.
The Filogic 360, a single-chip Wi-Fi 7 2x2 and dual Bluetooth 5.4 solution, provides unparalleled connection for high-performance devices including smartphones, PCs, laptops, set-top boxes, OTT streaming devices, and more. Triple-band selectable Wi-Fi 7 2x2 with 2.9Gbps speeds, 4096-QAM and MRU compatibility, and 160MHz channel capacity are key characteristics. The Hybrid MLO solution with Filogic Xtra range support improves communication distance. It also has BLE audio with inbuilt DSP for LC3 codec compatibility and twin Bluetooth 5.4 cores for gaming and other apps. MediaTek's sophisticated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth coexistence technology eliminates interference on the 2.4 GHz band.
