Product Overview

 

WPEQ-268AXI(BT), first Qualcomm based WiFi-6E (802.11ax) mini PCIe module, running PCIe (Wifi) and USB (BT), supports DBDC (Dual-band, Dual-concurrent) mode, but with Tri-band capability (2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz). WPEQ-268AXI(BT) is able to concurrently run 2.4GHz with 5GHz, or 6GHz, and support full IEEE802.11 ax/ac/a/b/g/n protocol, up to 160MHz mode.

 

WPEQ-268AXI(BT) designed with 2 spatial streams (2T2R, or 2×2) in MU-MIMO mode. With a standard mini PCIe formfactor, WPEQ-268AXI(BT) can accommodate to all existing platform that has mini PCIe Adaptor pre-integrated, no extra work with platform design.

 

Utilizing Qualcomm WCN6856 chipset, software wise Software wise WPEQ-268AXI(BT) support Windows, with Linux (Open Source) in the pipeline. The module is capable to run on both x86 platform and ARM based platform, and supports STA mode and Soft AP Mode*, recommend to run on application includes: digital signage/POS, rugged computer / tablets, fanless automation PC and other industrial environment applications that requires high speed data transmission.
