Why 802.11ax is the next big thing in Wi-Fi

October 17, 2018 by Haitao Huang 2 Comments

IEEE 802.11ax or Wi-Fi 6 builds on the strengths of 802.11ac, while adding flexibility and scalability that lets new and existing networks power next- generation applications. IEEE 802.11ax OFDMA technology lets even first-wave 802.11ax access points support eight spatial streams and deliver up to 4800 Mbps at the physical layer, depending on vendor implementation. All clients will achieve higher effective throughput at the MAC layer, for a better overall user experience.

    Wow that is some crazy Wifi 6 speeds. 3.2 Gbps on a single stream. Are their consumers that need (not want) 3.2Gbps? Gamers come to mind but can anyone think of another type? The traffic negotiation sounds like a large benefit of .11ax but early consumer adopters are likely to be either gamers or the egomaniac that just wants the bragging rights.
