Global Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax) Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2026-2032
Description
The global Wi-Fi 6 (802.11 ax) market size is expected to reach $ 2755 million by 2032, rising at a market growth of -9.6% CAGR during the forecast period (2026-2032).
In 2019, Wi-Fi 6 also known as 802.11ax, was introduced as the latest iteration of Wi-Fi technoIn 2019, Wi-Fi 6 also known as 802.11ax, was introduced as the latest iteration of Wi-Fi technology. It's changing the way we connect and consume information. The Wi-Fi 6 standard builds on the strengths of earlier Wi-Fi standardswhile improving efficiency, flexibility, and scalability and is a substantial upgrade over previous generations. These enhancements provide new and existing networks with increased speed and capacity for next-generation applications.Although for the average user, the difference might not be immediately apparent. These changes consist of many incremental improvements that add up to a substantial upgrade.
Wi-Fi 6 promised faster speeds (almost 3x faster than Wi-Fi 5) and improved the speed available when several devices operate on one network by communicating with multiple users at the same time (rather than in sequence). Benefits of Wi-Fi 6 as following:
1. Improved security. Wi-Fi 6 technology supports the newest security protocol, Wi-Fi Protected Access 3 (WPA3). WPA3 has stronger user authentication capabilities and better encryption tools. It helps in providing secure wireless networking.
2. Increased battery life. Wi-Fi 6 has features to effectively put specific devices' Wi-Fi settings to "sleep" when it's not being used. This frees up bandwidth by sleeping connections, not in use and opening them up to other active devices.
3. High speed even when congested.
4. Increasing access point capacity in support of IoT and mobile devices.
5. Beams focused on speed and dependability.
6. 8X8 spatial streams for concurrent usage. Having a Wifi 6 router capable of 8×8 spatial streams means one can service more devices simultaneously and achieve more general efficiency.logy.

Due to the rapid development of technology, the sixth generation of Wi-Fi was introduced in 2019. During the COVID-19 pandemic, and the number of Wi-Fi 6 connected devices across homes are increasing day-by-day. In the next few years, Wi-Fi 6 will be widely used around the world. WIFI 6 is a progress in the form of wireless LAN, so its adoption will grow in the next few years. Around 2019-2020, since the Wi-Fi 6 technology has just come out, the chip is not yet mature, and the output is not high, so the price of Wi-Fi 6-related products on the market is still very expensive. Now with the gradual maturity of product technology, product prices have generally come down. Product prices are on a downward trend in the future. In recent years, the development of Wi-Fi 6 and 5G is in full swing. In the future, Wi-Fi 6 and 5G are expected to achieve better integration, and network operators will have the ability to guide and optimize the traffic of the two types of networks. As an important support and supplement to 5G in advanced wireless solutions, Wi-Fi 6 will play an increasingly central role, helping enterprises create value through next-generation connectivity technologies.
