SHANGHAI, April 21, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/--

Quectel Wireless Solutions (https://www.quectel.com/), the leading global

supplier of cellular and GNSS modules, has today announced a series of

brand-new Wi-Fi 6 modules, including the industrial-grade FG50X series

(https://www.quectel.com/product/fg50v.htm) based on the Qualcomm®

FastConnectTM 6800 mobile connectivity subsystem, which is designed to deliver

faster, more secure, and more robust Wi-Fi experiences and enable new Bluetooth

audio capabilities, and the automotive-grade module AF50T

(https://www.quectel.com/product/af50t.htm) based on the Qualcomm® Automotive

Wi-Fi 6 chip, the QCA6696, Qualcomm Technologies' most advanced automotive

Wi-Fi solution. These two modules series are designed to deliver enhanced

performance in capacity, data rates, latency, power consumption and coverage.

They will bring premium wireless performance to a variety of consumer,

industrial and automotive applications, such as smart homes, MiFi, smart TVs,

over-the-top (OTT) devices, industrial controls, customer premises equipment

(CPE), the Internet of Vehicles and much more.

The FG50X series and AF50T modules support IEEE 802.11 ax and BT 5.1, and are

backward compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac protocols. In addition to this, the

low-power Wi-Fi 6 modules support Dual MAC, 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz Dual Bands

Simultaneous (DBS) in 2X2+2x2 mode, MU-MIMO with 8x8 sounding, advanced

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) and 1024-QAM (Orthogonal

Amplitude Modulation) capabilities.

When used in combination with Quectel's 5G module RG500Q, the FG50X series

offers a superior 5G and Wi-Fi 6 solution for MiFi and CPEs that is designed to

ensure high-speed connections which can support up to 32 clients at a time.

Moreover, the FG50X series utilizes the WPA3 encryption mode to greatly improve

the security of Wi-Fi connections.

Engineering samples of the FG50X and AF50T modules are available now and have

been provided to a range of customers for their new product designs, with the

first wave of customer devices embedded with FG50X modules being available on

the market in early May 2020.
