We are proud to introduce our newest Wi-Fi module series, the Sterling 70. Powered by the NXP 88W9098 wireless SOC, the Sterling 70 series is the industry’s first Wi-Fi 6 solution based on the latest IEEE 802.11ax standard with an innovative concurrent dual MAC Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth 5.1 architecture.
