Wi-Fi 6 Leading the New Era

Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), the latest generation of Wi-Fi standards building on the strengths of its predecessor Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac), is optimized for faster speed and wider coverage with better user experience in high-density areas. Wi-Fi 6 covers a wide variety of IoT and mobile applications in education, manufacturing, hotel, entertainment, residential, etc.

Wi-Fi 6 Innovations for Seamless Experiences

Enterprise wireless LAN issues are troublesome—lagged data transfer & restricted Wi-Fi coverage will lead to poor user experience eventually. Wi-Fi 6 will just cope with the current network bottlenecks and make quick responses to the increasing demand for optimal Wi-Fi networks by adopting improved technologies.

    • Enhanced Wi-Fi 6 MU-MIMO technology increases capacity up to 4x 802.11ac access points with MU-MIMO in uplink and downlink.
      Excellent OFDMA allows more efficient channels to be used when multiple devices work simultaneously, resulting in reduced latency and increased efficiency.
    • 25% Faster and Larger Coverage

      Wi-Fi 6 supports higher order modulation (1024-QAM), which is 25% faster than 802.11ac 256-QAM with better throughput.
      4x longer OFDM symbol extends the WLAN coverage and boosts speed as well.
    • 70% Reduced Power Consumption and Less Interference

      Target Wake Time increases devices' sleep time, reduces power consumption, and saves battery life.
      4x longer OFDM symbol extends the WLAN coverage and boosts speed as well.

    FS Wireless Network Solution and Wi-Fi 6 FAQ

    • Q:  Is Wi-Fi 6 backward compatible with the previous wireless standards?
      A:  Yes. Wi-Fi 6 is designed to be backward compatible with the previous 802.11a/b/g/n/ac standards. Wi-Fi 6 access points are able to be used without replacing client devices. But note that only using Wi-Fi 6 access points together with Wi-Fi 6 supported client devices can realize the benefit of the new standard.
    • Q:  Are my client devices Wi-Fi 6 supported? When will client devices support Wi-Fi 6?
      A:  Client devices supporting Wi-Fi 6 have entered the market from laptops to smartphones since last year (2019). There are many vendors such as Apple, Samsung, HP, Microsoft, Intel, and others that have released Wi-Fi 6 products.
    • Q:  Is Wi-Fi 6 the same as 5G?
      A:  No. Though Wi-Fi 6 and 5G are both designed for wireless connections, they are different in many aspects and hold their advantages and disadvantages. You can get more information about Wi-Fi 6 vs 5G from this blog: Wi-Fi 6 vs 5G: Technologies and Applications Analysis.
    • Q:  What is the relationship between Wi-Fi 6 and 802.11ax?
      A:  The term Wi-Fi 6 and 802.11ax are interchangeable. 802.11ax is the latest IEEE Wi-Fi standard. To simplify the naming of Wi-Fi standards, Wi-Fi Alliance simplified the name 802.11ax to Wi-Fi 6, indicating the sixth generation of Wi-Fi.
    • Q:  How is Wi-Fi 6 different from Wi-Fi 5?
      A:  Wi-Fi 6 builds and improves on the previous 802.11ac Wi-Fi 5 standard. They differ in several technologies they use, which results in an enhanced experience when deploying Wi-Fi 6 instead of Wi-Fi 5 in more high-density and performance stringent environments. This blog explains more about them: Wi-Fi 5 vs Wi-Fi 6: What Are Their Differences?
    • Q:  Which FS access points support Wi-Fi 6?
      A:  A: FS AP-W6D2400C and AP-W6D1775C access points are Wi-Fi 6 supported. They bring high performance and security to today’s enterprise wireless networks.
    • Q:  Can FS Wi-Fi 6 access points recognize the type of connected device?
      A:  Yes, FS Wi-Fi 6 access points support terminal intelligent identification to identify intelligent mobile terminals and PCs such as Apple and Android.
    • Q:  What kind of certification access does FS Wi-Fi 6 access points support?
      A:  These access points support multiple user access authentication methods such as Web, 802.1x, MAC address, and local authentication for you to choose.
    • Q:  Do FS Wi-Fi 6 access points support Bluetooth?
      A:  Yes. Both AP-W6D2400C and AP-W6D1775C Wi-Fi 6 access points support Bluetooth 5.0 (BLE) and Apple iBeacon protocol. FS Wi-Fi 6 APs can expand rich Bluetooth applications such as shake. They can also be applied to Bluetooth positioning requests.
    • Q:  Will FS Wi-Fi 6 access points meet needs for high transmission quality?
      A:  Yes, FS Wi-Fi 6 APs can ensure business transmission quality.
