IEEE 802.11ax-2021, also known as 802.11ax, or Wi-Fi 6, is a standard of wireless networking that utilizes 1024QAM, OFDMA, MU-MIMO, and up to 160 MHzMegaHertz (MHz) 10^6 Hz channel bandwidth to allow for more throughput and lower latency compared to previous standards. 802.11ax offers a peak theoretical speeds of 9.6Gbps, with real-world speeds reaching upwards of 1500Mbps.
Wi-Fi 6E[edit]
An extension to 802.11ax known as "Wi-Fi 6E" utilizes the 6 GHzGigaHertz (GHz) 10^9 Hz band to allow higher theoretical throughput. Being a newer standard, the 6 GHzGigaHertz (GHz) 10^9 Hz band is less populated than the existing 2.4 GHzGigaHertz (GHz) 10^9 Hz and 5 GHzGigaHertz (GHz) 10^9 Hz bands, reducing interference with other Wi-Fi networks nearby.
