Description
High-Performance Wi-Fi 6 M.2 Module: AW7915-AED with Dual-Band Dual Concurrent Support – 2T2R Dual Bands Dual Concurrents IEEE802.11ax 2.4GHz / 5 GHz by MediaTek MT7915

Key capabilities and benefits
- The operation of Wi-Fi 6E in the 6 GHz spectrum offers extremely wide 160 MHz channels and additional capacity, leading to enhanced network performance.
- Orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) more efficiently allocates channels, thereby increasing network efficiency and reducing latency for both uplink and downlink traffic in high-demand environments.
- Multi-user multiple input, multiple output (MU-MIMO) allows more uplink and downlink data to be transferred at once and enables an access point to handle a larger number of concurrent clients.
- The ability to utilize a 160 MHz channel increases bandwidth, resulting in enhanced performance with minimal latency.
- 1024 quadrature amplitude modulation mode (1024-QAM) enables throughput increases by encoding more data in the same amount of spectrum.
- Transmit beamforming enhances signal power, leading to significantly higher data rates within a specified range.
