EJL Wireless Research Analyzes Wave 2 Chipsets for 802.11ac
Salem, NH (PRWEB) December 01, 2014 -- EJL Wireless Research predicts that with the emergence of Wave 2 IEEE 802.11ac access point chipsets in 2015, Qualcomm is poised to take share from Broadcom, the current Wave 1 802.11ac market share leader.
“Over the past 12 months, Qualcomm has made strong Wi-Fi access point chipset announcements, including the IPQ806x Internet Processors and companion 802.11ac Wave 2 radios. The Qualcomm VIVE Wave 2 chipset has an attractive feature set, including Multi-User MIMO, on a competitive power budget. This new Qualcomm chipset will battle for access point design wins with the second-generation StrataGX solution from Broadcom, specifically the BCM5852x family of networking processors, plus companion radio transceiver chips. Enterprise and carrier access point OEMs will be evaluating these and other new Wave 2 chipset offerings from Celeno, Marvell, MediaTek, Quantenna and Realtek in the first half of 2015, leading to strategic chipset selections in the second half of 2015. This new EJL Wireless Research report is intended to facilitate these critical multifaceted chipset selection decisions.” said Principal Analyst, Maury Wood.
“This report is the first of a series covering IEEE 802.11ac technology that EJL Wireless Research will be publishing through 2015. I am very excited to have Maury on the team and focusing on this very important wireless topic,” says Earl Lum, Founder and President.
