Title First Line

Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 (Gig+) Module
Title Second Line

Maximize speed, latency, and reliability benefits of Wi-Fi 6 across new radio
frequencies free from legacy device interference
The Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 (Gig+) adapter is designed to support upcoming
Wi-Fi 6E technology and related Wi-Fi Alliance Wi-Fi 6E 1 certification. The
product supports dual-stream Wi-Fi in the 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz bands,
and includes improved TCP throughput—exceeding 2Gbps—and future
Wi-Fi 6 R2 features, including UL MU-MIMO 2 that improves UL network
capacity in dense environments as well as Bluetooth® 5.2 support. These new
features maximize the benefits of Wi-Fi 6, including Gigabit speed, ultra-low
latencies, and enhanced reliability benefits across new radio frequencies
exclusive to Wi-Fi 6E devices, and deliver a significant improvement in user
experience in dense deployments. Combined with Intel® Core™ processors
and exceptional Intel wireless innovations, the Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 module
can dramatically improve your connected experience at home, work, or on
the go.

2nd Generation Intel Wi-Fi 6 Wireless with Extended Wi-Fi 6E (6GHz Band) Support
Greater Network Flexibility Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 module supports legacy Wi-Fi 4, 5, 6 and Wi-Fi 6E and is designed to
Faster Speed support Wi-Fi 6 wave 2 features. By implementing the new Wi-Fi 6E technology supporting the
new 6GHz band that includes 1200MHz of new contiguous spectrum (>2x compared to 5GHz)
Reduced Latency with more Gigabit Wi-Fi options and exclusivity to Wi-Fi 6 products, Intel® Wi-Fi 6E AX210 module
Wi-Fi 6E Tri Band 2x2 maximizes Wi-Fi 6 and Gigabit Wi-Fi benefits enabling greater network flexibility, faster
160MHz downloads, sharing and backups as well as reduced latency and improved reliability.
When using Wi-Fi 6 technology with 1024QAM and 160MHz channels, Intel® Wi-Fi 6 AX210
module can deliver nearly 3x higher peak data rates 3 (up to 2.4Gbps) and up to 4x capacity
improvement in dense or congested environments comparing to Wi-Fi 5 4.

Bluetooth® 5.2 On top of existing features, Bluetooth® 5.2 includes Isochronous Channel feature which lays the
foundation for the implementation of next generation of Bluetooth® Audio – Low Energy Audio.
Bluetooth® 5.2 Core specification also provides the capability to change the transmit power of the
devices (local and peer) in order to improve the link quality while not using extra power
consumption.
Microsoft* Windows 10* Full support for latest Microsoft* Windows 10* OS.
Form Factors M.2 2230 modules enable system configuration and platform usage flexibility with the use of a
(M.2 2230 and 1216) standard Key A or Key E socket for attaching the module.
M.2 1216 modules enable platform design optimizations providing savings on motherboard
space and BOM.
