The ‘E’ in WLAN 6E stands for ‘Extended,’ highlighting the expansion of available frequencies for communication.


What Is WLAN 6E?

WLAN 6E, also known as WiFi 6E, stands for Wireless Local Area Network 6 Extended, representing the latest evolution in wireless communication standards. It builds upon its predecessor, WiFi 6, which operates in the 6GHz frequency band, in addition to the 2.4GHZ and 5GHz used by previous WiFi versions. The “E” stands for “Extended”, representing an extended version of 802.11ax. This version does not only enhances data throughput significantly by incorporating over 1 GHz of additional wireless spectrum, but also introduces ultra-wide data channels.

FAQ About WLAN 6E Technology

WLAN 6E, also known as WiFi 6E, stands for Wireless Local Area Network 6 Extended. The “E” stands for “Extended”, representing an extended version of 802.11ax.

It all depends on your applications and hardware.If your application demands significantly higher bandwidth, swift and efficient browsing, as well as multitasking, then yes, it is advisable to transition to WiFi 6E right away. However, you’ll also need to consider the compatibility of your existing devices with 6GHz WiFi. 

This is THE good news. WiFi 6E routers are fully backwards compatible with all older WiFi devices supporting earlier versions, including 802.11 ac/n/g/b/a. However, not all devices support WiFi 6. Many devices can still operate correctly on the network using WiFi 6E, but not all devices will support the new standard. Feel free to contact us so that we can together check the compatibility of your existing material.

It would be utopian to guarantee flawless security for any IT system. However, WLAN 6E incorporates advanced encryption and protection measures, ensuring that data transmitted over the network remains secure and confidential.
