SX-PCEAX-AP

IEEE 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) Wireless LAN Access Point Modules

Silex’s SX-PCEAX-AP modules are embedded wireless LAN modules using Qualcomm's QCN9072 chipset, ideal for access points, gateways, and routers in medical and industrial applications. The SX-PCEAX-AP Wi-Fi 6 module enables a stable 2.4GHz/5GHz communication even in crowded wireless environments. Combining both the Wi-Fi 6 and 6E (SX-PCEAX-AP6E) modules can seamlessly add the 6GHz spectrum, achieving tri-band connectivity supporting 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz.

Why choose the SX-PCEAX-AP?

 
The SX-PCEAX-AP's built-in RFI filter and modular form factor make it the smartest solution for manufacturers looking for optimal signal quality without the high development costs.
 
Paired with our unmatched customer support and rigorous testing in real world environments, the SX-PCEAX-AP module promises to address all your Wi-Fi 6/6E needs.
 
  • Intelligently designed
    The SX-PCEAX-AP Series modules are intelligently designed to easily add the 6GHz spectrum by pairing it with the SX-PCEAX-AP6E module.

  • Silex's custom hardware design
    Backed by over 50 years of Wi-Fi experience, Silex's custom hardware design optimizes quality, performance, security, and reliability.

  • Reduced development costs 
    The module's standard form factor makes it easy to incorporate into designs, reducing potential development and certification costs.

SX-PCEAX is based on the QCN9072 chipset and supports tri-band with 802.11ax. It is ideal for access points, gateways, and routers in medical and industrial applications in dense environments.

Built-in RFI filter reduces interference and optimizes signal quality

The SX-PCEAX-AP module is equipped with a filter that removes any unnecessary interference, promising more stable communication.

Standard form factor reduces development and certification costs

The SX-PCEAX-AP Series modules’ standard-compliant full-height Mini PCIe form factor enables customers to easily integrate the module in existing designs. By simply swapping out the wireless module of an existing access point, you can seamlessly
upgrade it to Wi-Fi 6/6E without the high development and certification costs.

Wi-Fi 6E (Tri-Band)

Add the 6GHz spectrum with SX-PCEAX-AP6E . Devices can operate in the 6 GHz band providing:

  • Six times more capacity than 2.5 and 5 GHz bands
  • Seven super wide 160 MHz channels
  • Lower latency, less congestion

Multi-User Multiple Input Multiple Output (MU-MIMO)

Allows more downlink data to be transferred at once and enables an access point to concurrently transmit data to a larger number of devices.

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA)

OFDMA effectively shares channels to increase network efficiency and lower latency for both uplink and downlink traffic in high-demand and dense environments.

Designed for side-by-side use to easily achieve tri-band benefits (2.4GHz/5GHz/6GHz)
