The most obvious difference between WiFi6 and WiFi6E
WiFi6E adds a 6GHz frequency band, while WiFi6 does not. The frequency band is equivalent to the channel of WiFi signal transmission, with one more spacious channel, and data transmission is smoother.
WiFi6E supports three frequency bands
WiFi 6E has an extra E, which means "Extended". The main improvement is to support the 6GHz frequency band. This means that the WiFi 6E device can support the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz frequency bands. Many advantages.
Significant advantages of the newly added 6GHz frequency band
Compared with the commonly used 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands, the 6GHz frequency band has not yet been opened in many areas, so there are fewer devices using the 6GHz frequency band. Naturally, there is less congestion and interference in this frequency band.
At the same time, the 6GHz frequency band is between 5925-7125MHz, including 7 160MHz channels, 14 80MHz channels, 29 40MHz channels, 60 20MHz channels, for a total of 110 channels.
The number of channels has increased significantly compared with the 5GHz and 2.4GHz frequency bands, resulting in a more powerful throughput capacity. In particular, the 160MHz channel has been increased from 1 to 7 at 5GHz, which can realize 7 connections without interfering with each other.
Other advantages of WiFi6E
New peak WiFi speed. In terms of performance, the peak speed of the WiFi 6E chip can reach 3.6Gbps, while the current peak speed of the WiFi 6 chip is only 1.774Gbps.
The delay is significantly reduced. In addition, WiFi 6E also has an ultra-low latency of fewer than 3 milliseconds. Compared with the previous generation, the latency in dense environments is reduced by more than 8 times.
The mobile terminal Bluetooth technology is improved. WiFi6E supports the new Bluetooth 5.2 technology, and the Bluetooth connection improves the overall user experience of mobile terminal devices in all aspects, bringing users a better, more stable, faster, and broader user experience.
In summary, WiFi 6E is the best choice for devices with high network requirements. However, the current trend of WiFi6E related equipment is not yet popular, friends who like early adopters can consider starting.
