Qualcomm Quad Core SoC creates extreme performance experience for routers.

When we choose computers and smartphones, we usually distinguish the difference in performance according to the number of cores of processors. Generally speaking, the more cores, the stronger the performance. Most of the routers used in daily homes use single-core or dual-core processors, while the Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 carries Qualcomm IPQ8071A chip, 4-core A53 architecture, 1GHz clock rate, and dual-core network acceleration engine chip. Compared with 128MB-only routers on the market, this product also has a huge amount of 512MB memory. This configuration enables the router to connect more devices and make it more playable.

In addition to the Qualcomm IPQ8071A main chip, the 2.4GHz Wi-Fi chip of the Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 supports 4x4MIMO and 802.11ax for QCN5024, 5GHz Wi-Fi chip for QCN5054, AIoT antenna part for QCA9889 SoC, these chips are the current high-end brand thousand yuan price e-sports router will use the configuration.

In order to bring users a better experience, the Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 is equipped with six high-performance signal amplifiers, including 2 external high-performance signal amplifiers in 2.4GHz band and 4 external high-performance signal amplifiers in 5GHz band (PA power amplifier + LNA low noise amplifier). The power amplifier can effectively enhance the transmission power of the signal and make the signal transmit farther. The low noise amplifier is used to improve the sensitivity of signal reception so that the router can receive weaker signals.

More importantly, the Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 is a WiFi 6 router. WiFi 6 is the latest network protocol standard released by the WiFi Alliance, and the standard code is 802.11ax. In terms of a frequency band, WiFi 6 covers 2.4GHz and 5GHz, perfectly covering low-speed and high-speed equipment and modulation modes. WiFi 6 supports 1024m QAM, which is higher than 256m QAM of WiFi 5, with higher data capacity and faster data transmission speed. At the same time, a new OFDMA technology is added to support multiple terminals to transmit in parallel at the same time. It can be said that the emergence of WiFi 6 not only increases the upload and download rate, but also allows more devices to connect to the network, and greatly improves network congestion.

Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 provides both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, both of which support 11ax technology. According to official data, the theoretical rate of Wi-Fi 6 AX3600 is 155% higher than that of Wi-Fi 5 AC1200. In the era of the Internet of everything, WiFi 6 can significantly reduce data latency and stutter when multiple devices are connected at the same time.

Create the ultimate speed experience based on WiFi 6.

After the house secretary changed the broadband at home to 500 megabytes of fiber, he felt that the router became very difficult to face with 500 megabytes of fiber. After replacing the router with Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600, both the network speed and experience were significantly improved. First of all, in terms of network speed, using SpeedTest test found that the router download speed of 410Mbps, upload speed of 37.4Mbps. The Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 has a download speed of 615Mbps and an upload speed of 42.8Mbps.

Based on MU-MIMO technology and OFDMA technology, multiple antennas of Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600 are allowed to serve multiple devices at the same time, and data can be sent to multiple terminal devices with only one transmission. When two phones that support WiFi 6 measure the speed at the same time, the download speed can reach 580 + Mbps. Compared with traditional routers, it not only avoids slowing down the experience of other devices because of one low-speed device, but also has lower latency, which significantly improves the transmission efficiency of multiple devices working at the same time.

5G+AIoT strategy is Xiaomi Group’s strategy that runs through full-product, full-platform and full-scene service capabilities. According to the financial report of Xiaomi Group in the first half of 2019, the, Xiaomi IoT platform has connected 196 million IoT devices, and more than 3 million users have 5 or more IoT products. As the network foundation of the whole AIoT, the router should also be integrated into the Xiaomi IoT platform.
