Edgar Figueroa, president and CEO of Wi-Fi Alliance, said:

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 ushers in a new era in Wi-Fi for better performance in any environment for the , greater network capacity for service providers to improve their customer coverage and new opportunities for advanced applications. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 will offer improvements in connectivity, even in high-density locations and IoT environments.

Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 also supports the latest generation of Wi-Fi security, WPA3. It supports Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) to increase network efficiency and reduce both Download and Upload latency in high demand environments. It supports it wake time (TWT) to significantly improve battery life on Wi-Fi devices and the quadrature amplitude modulation (1024-QAM) function to increase availability on Wi-Fi devices.

The first Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6 (Wi Fi 6) have the following chips:

  • Broadcom® BCM4375
  • Broadcom® BCM43698
  • Broadcom® BCM43684
  • Cypress CYW 89650 Auto-Grade Wi-Fi 6 Certified
  • Intel® Wi-Fi 6 (Gig+) AX200 (for PCs)
  • Intel® Home Wi-Fi Chipset WAV600 Series (for routers and gateways)
  • Marvell 88W9064 (4 × 4) Wi-Fi 6 Dual-Band STA
  • Marvell 88W9064 (4 × 4) + 88W9068 (8 × 8) Wi-Fi 6 Concurrent Dual-Band AP
  • Qualcomm® Networking Pro 1200 Platform
  • Qualcomm® FastConnect 6800 Wi-Fi 6 Mobile Connectivity Subsystem
  • Ruckus R750 Wi-Fi 6 Access Point
