The Department of Telecomunications has issued the draft paper to delicense the lower portion of the 6GHz spectrum band, (5925 – 6425 MHz), freeing up 500 MHz of spectrum By Vallari Sanzgiri ...

For a bit of technical context, 2.4GHz Wi-Fi has less than 100MHz assigned to it, allowing 3 non-overlapping 20 MHz channels (or 11-14 overlapping 20Mhz channels, depending on your region). 5GHz ...

The Nigerian Communications Commission (NCC) has made a significant move to enhance connectivity by opening the 6GHz frequency band for unlicensed Wi-Fi use.

With more than twice as much bandwidth as the 5GHz band used by Wi-Fi devices today, the 6GHz band can accommodate up to seven 160MHz channels at once. Latency stands to be a lot lower on the 6GHz ...

Over 84 countries have delicensed the lower 6GHz band (5925-6425 MHz), with 13 countries opening the entire 1200 MHz. Australia recently added 160 MHz to the delicensed spectrum, demonstrating its ...

The 6GHz band is used by Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 to deliver faster speeds over a wider swath of channels, increasing both speed and reliability of Wi-Fi, especially with tri-band routers.

Wi-Fi 6 is preparing to expand into the 6GHz band, which could be key for the development of bandwidth-heavy use cases such as 4K video streams and virtual/augmented reality applications.

Seven 160MHz channels and 14 additional 80MHz channels to be capable of handling high bandwidth applications, the Wi-Fi alliance has said. Written by Chris Duckett, Contributor ...
