HSINCHU, Taiwan, February 1, 2021 / PRNewswire / – MediaTek today announced their new M80 5G modem that combines mmWave and sub-6 GHz 5G technologies on a single chip. The M80 supports superfast speeds on both unstable (NSA) and standalone (US) architectures, with a maximum of 7.67 Gbps in the downlink and 3.76 Gbps in the uplink. The M80 also supports dual 5G SIM, dual 5G NSA and SA networks, and dual Voice over New Radio (VoNR) for more reliable connectivity.
“As 5G rollout accelerates, mmWave is becoming increasingly important, especially in the new US MediaTek 5G modem incorporating support for both sub-6 GHz and mmWave networks to address its ‘This opportunity and give manufacturers more flexibility, “said JC Hsu, Corporate Vice President. and General Manager of the MediaTek Wireless Communications Business Unit. “To enhance users’ 5G experiences, the new modem supports the latest cellular standards and specifications and packs MediaTek’s signature power-saving technologies along with ultra-fast speeds.”
MediaTek’s 5G modems are ideally suited for a range of devices, including smartphones, PCs, Mi-Fi hotspots, broadband customer premise (CPE) equipment, business IoT applications and more. MediaTek’s first-generation 5G modem, the M70, is built into MediaTek’s Size series of powerful and power-efficient chipsets for 5G smartphones. The company’s 5G package also includes MediaTek T700, which will power 5G PCs ready to hit the market in 2021, along with MediaTek’s T750 chipset for 5G-based wireless access routers (FWA) and mobile hotspot devices.
The M80 has been tested to industry standards and is expected to be sampled by customers later in 2021. It offers support to operators worldwide for a full range of radio access technologies. :
- Level 3GPP Release 16
- Sub-6 GHz and mmWave dual connection and carrier collection
- 5G NR (FR1) with more than two conduction assemblies
- 5G mmWave (FR2) up to 8CC
- 5G carrier collection with Mixed Duplex (TDD + FDD)
- Dynamic spectrum sharing (DSS) complete
The M80 incorporates MediaTek’s 5G UltraSave technologies that enhance the single-chip design to deliver another series of power-saving enhancements. UltraSave MediaTek Network Environment Verification Technology and UltraSave OTA Content Sensing technologies dynamically change power configuration and operating frequency based on the network environment. The M80 also incorporates MediaTek Bandwidth Part (BWP) technology designed to optimize bandwidth utilization to accommodate light or heavy data transmission applications. Additionally, with the M80’s Connected Mode DRX (C-DRX) technology the modem is routinely powered in a connected backup even when there is no data activity.
MediaTek works closely with operators and partners worldwide to deliver faster and more reliable 5G experiences to users. As a result, the company’s 5G technology has been tested by operators in more than 100 markets. MediaTek is also a founding member of the OpenRF Association, established to help accelerate time-to-market for 5G device manufacturers with interactive 5G RF Front-End (RFFE) solutions.
