Wi-Fi 6E trial in Turkey hailed a success by Türk Telekom
Wireless Broadband Alliance ( WBA ) member , Turk Telekom , has announced the successful completion of Wi- Fi 6E trials designed to demonstrate how the technology can be used to enhance speed and capacity in a variety of different end-user scenarios . Wi-Fi is vital to the success of Turk Telekom , which has one of the largest Wi-Fi footprints in the region , spanning residential , enterprise and public space applications .
The trial , which was carried out in partnership with Broadcom and Intel under the auspices of the WBA trials programme , clearly demonstrated the Wi-Fi 6E real-world performance benefits for consumers , enterprises and municipalities . Such benefits include high bandwidth and low latency wireless applications in on-premises environments . The greenfield 6 GHz spectrum coupled with Wi-Fi 6 ( Wi-Fi 6E ) is a natural match to high-speed fibre to the premises and will accelerate the deployment of 5G services . Regardless of the broadband service type to the premises , Wi-Fi 6E offers the opportunity to connect all endpoints at high speeds for a richer ecosystem and more opportunities for monetisation of the 5G services . The trial made clear that by opening the full 6 GHz spectrum , it is possible to future-proof
Turkey ’ s wireless broadband capabilities in the short term with Wi-Fi 6E and also lay the groundwork for Wi-Fi 7 so that its citizens can utilise the digitally immersive services that will drive advancements in education , manufacturing , entertainment and more .
