Qualcomm Introduces Third-Generation Networking Pro Design Based on Wi-Fi 7 Platform
Following the announcement at MWC 2022 this year of the FastConnect 7800 wireless network chip built with the Wi-Fi 7 connection specification, Qualcomm earlier announced the launch of a scalable commercial Wi-Fi 7 professional network solution, which is also the third-generation design of Qualcomm since the launch of the first-generation Networking Pro platform in August 2019.
Compared with the previous design of Wi-Fi 3, Wi-Fi 7 can increase the corresponding frequency band by about 100 times. At the same time, the wireless communication channel has also been increased from the early single frequency to the 4-band design, the effective bandwidth has been increased to 320MHz, and the wireless transmission capacity has also been expanded to 33 Gbps. Therefore, it can not only greatly improve the transmission efficiency of enterprise and home network connection, but also accelerate the promotion of 8K or higher quality multimedia content, or more realistic virtual vision, as well as a more real-time online interactive experience.
Addition, in addition to making good use of the 5GHz and 6GHz transmission frequency bands, Qualcomm can also use automatic frequency control technology, which is expected to control the network transmission throughput more efficiently.
At present, Qualcomm’s third-generation Networking Pro platform design has begun to provide sample designs to partners. It is expected to launch practical products in the second half of this year and can be equipped with the FastConnect 7800 wireless network chip, allowing devices to connect to various content through a faster wireless network.
