Vaunix announced the release of a suite of solid-state digital step attenuators that deliver ultra-fine resolution for Wi-Fi 6 applications ranging from as low as 200 MHz to the latest Wi-Fi 6 allocations in the 6,000  to 8,000 MHz (8 GHz) C-Band range. 

NXP Semiconductors N.V. announced that its most recent radio frequency front-end (RFFE) solution, designed with Wi-Fi 6 standards, is now designed into the Xiaomi Mi 10 5G smartphone.
 

Rohde & Schwarz has implemented a new 90 GHz connector, called the E connector, in two thermal power sensors, the R&S NRP90T and R&S NRP90TN. With a precise metric fine thread, a reliable pin-gap and an integrated groove for optional push-pull locking, the 1.35 mm E connector fills a gap between the well-established 1.85 mm connector (the V-Band connector) and the 1 mm connector (the W-Band connector).

Dialog Semiconductor PLC announced the availability of the DA16200, a highly integrated, ultra-low-power Wi-Fi networking SoC, and two modules that leverage Dialog’s VirtualZero technology to deliver a breakthrough in battery life for Wi-Fi connected, battery-powered IoT devices. 

Pivotal Commware has released a whitepaper and video demonstrating how tier-one mobile operators can use the company’s Echo 5G™ and Pivot 5G™ repeaters to increase indoor 5G mmWave coverage while reducing the cost of deployment.

Russian mobile operator MTS has claimed a record for the longest wireless link distance using commercial 10 Gbps E-Band radios: 19.5 km (12.1 miles) with stable connectivity at 9.97 Gbps throughput. The goal of the tests, which were confirmed by MTS, was 10 Gbps connectivity across a link approximately 20 km.
