_Joint effort with Airoha Highlights Cross-Generation Interoperability, AI-Powered
Energy Saving and Smart Network Diagnostics_

HSINCHU, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — MediaTek and its subsidiary Airoha Technology
are jointly showcasing next-generation fixed and wireless broadband connectivity
technologies, spanning Wi-Fi, 5G CPE and PON solutions for emerging AI applications
and services, at Network X 2026. Having worked closely with the network communications
industry ecosystem, MediaTek is one of the world’s leading companies at the forefront
of Wi-Fi 8 development and commercialization.

one of the global leaders at the forefront of Wi-Fi 8 technological innovation and
commercialization, representing a new stage in connectivity that is more intelligent,
reliable and efficient.

At Network X 2026, MediaTek is showcasing next-generation Enterprise-Grade Wi-Fi
8 technology leveraging the Filogic 8800, a high-performance tri-band flagship router
platform designed for AI applications. Unlike previous approaches that focused solely
on achieving the highest possible speed for a single device, the Wi-Fi 8 technologies
showcased by MediaTek place greater emphasis on the connectivity experience in real-
world network environments. Both home and enterprise networks must support the long-
term coexistence of Wi-Fi 5, Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 7 and the latest Wi-Fi 8 devices. Through
cross-generation network optimization, AI-powered dynamic energy saving and smart
network diagnostics, Filogic 8800 improves overall system throughput by up to nearly
100% while reducing system power consumption by 50%, even in environments where 
new and legacy devices are connected.

Filogic 8800 is shortlisted for the Network X Awards 2026 "Best Indoor Connectivity
Solution," demonstrating MediaTek’s achievement in transforming Wi-Fi 8 from a next-
generation technology specification into an outstanding real-world network experience.

**Partnering with the Global Network Communications Ecosystem to Pioneer a Seamless
Wi-Fi 8 Transition**

As Wi-Fi 7 gradually becomes an important foundation for enterprise and telecom-
grade networks, market demand is also shifting beyond peak data rates toward overall
system performance, reliability and interoperability among devices from different
generations. Since most home and enterprise network environments cannot replace 
all existing devices overnight, Wi-Fi 5, 6, 7 and 8 devices will coexist on the 
same network for an extended period of time. As a result, the true value of Wi-Fi
8 lies not in pushing the speed limits of individual new devices, but in maximizing
overall network efficiency, stability and user experience when multiple generations
of devices connect simultaneously in real-world environments.

Building on its early investment in Wi-Fi 8 technology development and a system 
and product track record built through long-term, close collaboration with Taiwan’s
network communications ecosystem, MediaTek has extended its design innovations in
Wi-Fi 8 to cross-generation interoperability and real-world commercial deployment.
By translating technical specifications into tangible user experiences, MediaTek
ensures that next-generation Wi-Fi 8 fully delivers on spectrum efficiency and network
performance, even when operating alongside large numbers of legacy Wi-Fi 5/6/7 devices.

Alan Hsu, Corporate Vice President and General Manager of the Intelligent Connectivity
Business Unit at MediaTek, said: "MediaTek is one of the global leaders at the forefront
of Wi-Fi 8 technological innovation and commercialization, representing a new stage
in connectivity that is more intelligent, reliable and efficient. We continue to
strengthen our Wi-Fi platforms through cross-generation interoperability, AI-powered
energy saving and AI smart network diagnostics, enabling devices across different
generations to deliver a better connectivity experience. We work closely with Airoha
to integrate product portfolios, and together with global ecosystem partners, we
are accelerating the deployment of next-generation connectivity technologies and
creating long-term value for telecom operators, enterprises and consumers."

**Elevating Overall Network Performance Through Cross-Generation Interoperability**

MediaTek DSO+ overcomes the limitations of conventional DSO when legacy clients 
occupy the Primary Subband, extending dynamic bandwidth allocation to heterogeneous
networks. In mixed-generation test environments, overall system throughput can be
improved by up to nearly 100%. MediaTek NPCA+ enables Wi-Fi 8 APs to dynamically
switch the primary channel to avoid network congestion while maintaining full compatibility
with Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 6 clients. In high-density environments with overlapping 
networks, network throughput can be improved by up to about 80%.

**Driving Network Energy Efficiency and Operational Resilience with AI**

MediaTek’s AI-assisted power-saving technology dynamically adjusts transmission 
power based on user behavior and traffic patterns, reducing power consumption by
33% under typical workloads. By further disabling unused frequency bands, overall
power consumption can be reduced by up to 50% while maintaining network performance.
For the day-to-day operational requirements of telecom operators, AI smart network
diagnostics can reduce MTTR (Mean Time to Repair) from approximately 2-4 hours to
under one minute, while reducing field service truck rolls by 20%, helping operators
improve network operational efficiency and reduce OPEX.
