The Filogic 880 and Filogic 380 Wi-Fi 7 platform solutions from MediaTek are designed for high-bandwidth applications in the operator, retail, corporate, and consumer electronics industries. This pair of processors will be among the first Wi-Fi 7 solutions to enter the market, allowing device makers to provide cutting-edge goods with cutting-edge connectivity.
Filogic 880 is a full platform that combines a Wi-Fi 7 access point with a new powerful host processor technology to deliver the finest router and gateway solution for operators, retailers, and enterprises. It has a scalable design that supports up to pentaband 4×4 at 36Gbps. All client devices, including smartphones, tablets, TVs, laptops, set-top boxes, and OTT streaming devices, will have Wi-Fi 7 access thanks to the Filogic 380. Because MediaTek also provides the relevant platform solutions, the chip’s dual concurrent 2×2 capabilities will be optimised “out-of-the-box” for these devices. This streamlines the design process, improves performance, and reduces time to market.
“Our wireless connectivity solutions are intended to give the quickest performance using the most modern technology,” said Alan Hsu, MediaTek’s corporate vice president and general manager of the Intelligent Connectivity business. “Our clients can provide fast, dependable, and always-on connected experiences with Filogic 880 and Filogic 380 to fulfil the industry’s expanding connection expectations.”
To enable optimal Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and packet processing speed, MediaTek Filogic 880 combines a Wi-Fi 7 access point with a fast application processor and network processing unit (NPU). The chip has a diverse set of interfaces and peripherals, making it simple to adapt designs for a variety of end products and applications.
