Product Description
Broadcom 4x4 802.11be Wi-Fi 7 Residential Access Point Chip - 160 MHz bandwidth (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz) - BCM6726
The BCM67263 and BCM6726 are 4x4 IEEE 802.11be Wi-Fi 7 MAC/PHY/radio system-on-a-chip (SoC) devices. The BCM67263 device supports 320MHz channel bandwidth in the 6GHz band only. The BCM6726 device can operate in 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands selectively up to 160MHz channel bandwidth. Taking advantage of Multi-Link Operation (MLO) in addition to multi-user technologies such as OFDMA (downlink and uplink) and MU-MIMO (downlink and uplink), the BCM67263 and BCM6726 deliver better throughput, lower latency and high reliability to consumer devices in a home network. These devices can be used in routers, residential gateways, Wi-Fi extenders and Wi-Fi mesh configurations.
