Snapdragon x24 lte modem with 2gbps speeds announced

Qualcomm today announced the Qualcomm Snapdragon X24 LTE modem, the world's first category 20 LTE modem that supports up to 2 gigabits per second (Gbps) of download speed and the first chip that is built on a 7-nanometer FinFET process.

Snapdragon X24 would offer speeds close to fiber connections

The company has announced the Snapdragon X24 LTE modem, which can support download speeds of up to 2Gbps. If you think 4G LTE was fast, Qualcomm is going to be rethinking it.

Although 2Gbps download speeds are the maximum theoretical speeds that the LTE modem can achieve, the Snapdragon X24 is capable of maintaining high maximum download speeds even on networks that are congested. Qualcomm believes that the chip will be able to achieve real speeds between 200 and 600 Mbps, much faster than the LTE speeds that we can use today.

The Snapdragon X24 also includes a 14nm RF transceiver and QET5100 surround tracker. This helps ensure that the modem works at peak performance in any circumstance. Qualcomm is expected to supply at least 18 OEMs with its Snapdragon X50 5G modems next year, but before that, we should be seeing the company make its appearance during CMM 2018, which is expected to start this month and perhaps learn something new. on both chips.

Attendees of the Barcelona Mobile World Congress can experience a demo of the 2Gbps speeds of the Snapdragon X24 LTE modem, along with Ericsson, NETGEAR and Telstra, starting on February 26.
