Chipmakers, telcos clash over 6GHz band for Wi-Fi 7 rollout
The 6GHz spectrum, which spans from 5925-7125MHz, is considered ideal for both 5G services and WiFi use due to its capability to deliver higher bandwidth. Telcos fear that free use of the band for WiFi would eat into their revenue. Even ISRO has raised concerns about potential interference with its satellite operations if the band is used for cellular connectivity.
