WASHINGTON, Oct. 7, 2025 —  A new WiFi demonstration reached speeds nearing 10 gigabits per second, offering a glimpse into how next-generation technology could transform home connectivity.  

Spectrum, a communications provider under Charter Communications, partnered with Broadcom to demonstrate next-generation WiFi technology.

At SCTE’s TechExpo25 in here last week, the companies showed how adding 125 megahertz of unlicensed spectrum to the full 6 gigahertz band could enable four 320 MHz channels or two 640 MHz channels. The demonstration highlighted how expanded access to spectrum could boost WiFi performance for devices such as smartphones, AR/VR headsets, gaming systems and computers, nearing speeds of 10 Gbps.
