SX-PCEAC-DB
Dual Band 802.11ac PCIe WLAN Module
3x3 MIMO - High Speed Wi-Fi for 2.4GHz and 5GHz GHz Bands
The SX-PCEAC-DB is an 802.11ac compliant dual-band 3x3 PCIe
Mini Card. It is based on the the Qualcomm Atheros QCA9880
chipset, designed to deliver wireless data rates of up to 1.3Gbps.
The SX-PCEAC-DB supports 20/40/80MHz and 256-QAM to
maximize bandwidth e ciency.
Unlike the other similar solutions, the design, manufacturing, and
tuning processes are strictly controlled in-house at the Silex
state-of-the-art ISO9001 facility in Japan. Each card is individually
tested and inspected to ensure the industry’s highest quality
resulting greater performance and reliability.
Typical Applications:
SX-PCEAC-DB card gives customers the ability to easily and reliably
support applications where this extra bandwidth and performance
is required, like deploying HD video over Wi-Fi.
Applications include commercial AP, routers, gateways, large-size
printers, video devices, medical devices etc.
