SX-PCEBE Evaluation

802.11be Tri-band Connectivity for Industrial and Medical Applications

The SX-PCEBE is the industry’s first PCIe Wi-Fi 7 plus Bluetooth (BT) combination module designed to meet high-performance connectivity demands for mission-critical applications. It is powered by Qualcomm’s QCC2076 chipset which is a highly integrated System-On-Chip (SoC) supporting Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth (BT) 5.3. It supports simultaneous operation on 2.4GHz and 5GHz, or 6GHz, also known as Dual Band Simultaneous (DBS). 

The SX-PCEBE sample package comes in the M.2 PCI Express card factor that allows customers to easily evaluate the radio on any platform that supports either of these two popular interfaces. And it includes 2 TE Connectivity Antennae 2118907-8. 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:
