I-Wi-Fi 6 (ngaphambilini eyayaziwa ngokuthi: 802.11.ax) igama lezinga le-Wi-Fi. I-Wi-Fi 6 izovumela ukuxhumana namadivayisi angafika kwangu-8 ngesivinini esingu-9.6 Gbps.
NgoSepthemba 16, 2019, i-Wi-Fi Alliance yamemezela ukwethulwa kohlelo lwesitifiketi se-Wi-Fi 6. Uhlelo ukuletha amadivayisi asebenzisa ubuchwepheshe bokuxhumana obungenantambo besizukulwane esilandelayo 802.11ax Wi-Fi kumazinga amisiwe.
I-Wi-Fi 6 isebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obubizwa nge-MU-MIMO (Multiple User Input Multiple Output), obuvumela amarutha ukuthi axhumane namadivayisi amaningi ngesikhathi esisodwa, esikhundleni sokuxhumana ngokulandelana. I-MU-MIMO ivumela irutha ukuthi ixhumane namadivayisi amane ngesikhathi, futhi i-Wi-Fi 6 izovumela ukuxhumana namadivayisi angafika kwangu-8. I-Wi-Fi 6 iphinde isebenzise obunye ubuchwepheshe, obufana ne-OFDMA (i-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access) kanye nokudlulisa ukwakheka kokukhanya, kokubili okwandisa ukusebenza kahle namandla enethiwekhi, ngokulandelana. Isivinini se-Wi-Fi 6 ngu-9.6 Gbps.
Ubuchwepheshe obusha ku-Wi-Fi 6 buvumela amadivayisi ukuthi ahlele ukuxhumana namarutha, kuncishiswe isikhathi esidingekayo ukuze kugcinwe izinti ziculwa ukuze kudluliswe namasignali osesho, okusho ukunciphisa ukusetshenziswa kwebhethri nokuthuthukisa impilo yebhethri.
Amadivayisi e-Wi-Fi 6 kufanele asebenzise i-WPA3 uma efuna ukuqinisekiswa yi-Wi-Fi Alliance, ngakho-ke uma uhlelo lokunikeza izitifiketi seluqalisiwe, amadivayisi amaningi e-Wi-Fi 6 azovikeleka kakhulu.
Ukwethulwa kwezinga le-Wi-Fi 6 kuzoletha “isandiso sempilo yobuchwepheshe” kanye nokwanda okukhulu kokuncintisana kubuchwepheshe be-Wi-Fi, futhi kuzoletha “inkathi entsha ye-Wi-Fi”.
