In a groundbreaking achievement, Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X75 5G Modem-RF System has set a new world record for 5G speed with sub-6 GHz spectrum, reaching a staggering 7.5 Gbps downlink speed. This feat is a testament to the advanced 5G capabilities of Qualcomm’s 6th generation modem-RF system, which includes features such as 4x carrier aggregation (CA) on TDD bands and 1024 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM).
Fastest 5G downlink
The record-breaking speed was not a fluke but a result of meticulous device testing using a 5G standalone (SA) network configuration. The process involved leveraging a total of 300MHz of spectrum, using 4x carrier aggregation (4xCA) with 4 TDD channels in one downlink connection, and 1024 QAM. This intricate setup allowed the Snapdragon X75 to reach its full potential and set a new benchmark in 5G speed.
But the Snapdragon X75’s capabilities extend beyond just speed. The system’s ability to aggregate 4 TDD channels and utilize 1024 QAM significantly enhances user experiences. It increases download speeds, network capacity, and spectrum efficiency, making it a future-ready device for more demanding data applications.
