Notes

• 1 - Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specifications. Actual wireless data throughput and wireless coverage, and number of connected devices are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of network conditions, AP limitations, and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles, volume and density of traffic, and AP location.

• 2 - Use of Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), and features including OFDMA, MU-MIMO, 1024-QAM, or HE160 require APs to also support the corresponding features. 160 MHz channels may not be all available in the 5GHz or 6 GHz band in some regions/countries due to regulatory restrictions.

• 3 - Functionality of MA80XE may be restricted on some computing systems   and platforms. Please try to update the device‘s driver for feature compatibility.

• 4 - Use of WPA3 requires APs to also support the corresponding feature.

• 5 - "Up to 75% lower latency" is based on Intel simulation data of 802.11ax with and without OFDMA using 9 clients. Average latency without OFDMA is 36 ms, with OFDMA average latency is reduced to 7.6 ms. Latency improvement requires that the AP and all clients support OFDMA.

• 6 - Based on IEEE 802.11ax specification Intel Engineering simulation. 160 MHz channels and Wi-Fi 6 technology advantages related to network managed traffic enable lower latencies, more efficient operation, and higher reliability vs. random contention-based traffic of standard Wi-Fi 5 networks.

• 7 - Several new features are introduced in the Bluetooth Core Specification 5.0 and 5.2 Release, including 2× faster speed and 4× broader coverage compared with Bluetooth 4.2.
