Next Generation IEEE 802.11 abgn/ac/ax plus Bluetooth PCIe Combo Module
The SX-PCEAX is one of the industry’s first Tri-band Wi-Fi 6E modules. This Wi-Fi 6E module extends the benefits that Wi-Fi 6 already provides in the 2.4 and 5 GHz bands to 6 GHz and helps increase overall capacity and performance. SX-PCEAX is a tri-band IEEE 802.11 abgn/ac/ax WLAN module plus Bluetooth 5.2 BR/EDR/LE combo module based on Qualcomm’s QCA2066 SoC.
The SX-PCEAX comes in a half mini-card PCIe card and M.2 form-factors that allow customers to easily evaluate the radio on any platform that supports either of these two popular interfaces. We support the below reference platforms and provide a Linux OS evaluation image that includes Silex’s reference radio driver, supplicant, and tools to test the following:
• SX-PCEAX-HMC-SP
• Nitrogen 8M Mini Single Board Computer (Nit8MQ_Mini_2r16EWB)
• 8GB Micro SD card
• A PC to open a console session for the Nitrogen platform
