Think your 802.11ac Wi - Fi is fast ? Think again : Quantenna Communications hasannouncedthat it ’s working on a chipset due 2015 that will keep going speeds of up to a astounding 10 Gbps .
Most current high - speed wireless chipsets send and have three data streams at once , and are referred to as 3×3 MIMO chipsets ( that last mo just stand for multiple input / multiple output ) . That allows manufacturers to offer speeds of up to 1.3Gbps on a 5GHz absolute frequency band , and Asus is even do to push that to 1.7 Gbps .
But Quantenna is operate on an 8×8 MIMO chipset that will provide some nerve - melting Wi - Fi speed . PC World explains how it will works :
It ’s base on MU - MIMO engineering ( multi - user MIMO ) . MIMO engineering science station and receives data streams using multiple antennas on one transmitter and multiple antennas on one receiver . Multi - user MIMO can carry to a number of devices at once , leverage the antennas on a host of main access point . The chipset will also deliver adaptative beam forming , in which the vector and receiving system analyze the signals they exchange to control the optimal path and to turn down spurious signals .
The result for us baseborn remainder users : 10 Gbps of Wi - Fi goodness that is backward compatible with 802.11ac and all the onetime 802.11a / B vitamin / gibibyte and north standards , too .
Quantenna reckons the chipset will first look in enterprise and consumer networking , as well as in ISP infrastructure . But some spoilt news : it is n’t pan off to wrench it into a chipset for mobile equipment or USB Wi - Fi adapters . So , at ripe , it might make it to your laptop computer and background computers — until someone else picks up the baton , at least . [ PC World ]
