AMD and Qualcomm today announced that they will integrate Qualcomm FastConnect connectivity technology with their Ryzen PRO 6000 series processors. That said, business laptops using this new chip are said to bring some advanced capabilities—like Wi-Fi 6 and 6E—through the wireless features of Windows 11.
AMD and Qualcomm join hands for the Ryzen series!
It is stated that series such as Lenovo ThinkPad Z and HP EliteBook 805, which are currently in cooperation with Microsoft and using Windows 11, can benefit from the full potential of Wi-Fi Dual Station via Qualcomm 4-Stream Dual Band Simultaneous.
Additionally, it is said to outperform single-band options for multiple Wi-Fi bands, enhanced video conferencing experiences, reduced latency, and drop-free connectivity. In addition, new generation laptop users taking advantage of the 6 GHz band can take full advantage of the bandwidth and speed improvements without competing with any non-6E device.
For IT administrators, the AMD Manageability Processor, now available in Ryzen PRO 6000 systems, is a solution that enables remote management of AMD commercial platforms. Paired with the FastConnect 6900, this solution will provide wireless manageability with support for more than 32 widely used open standards-based (DASH) profiles.
Jason Banta, CVP and General Manager, AMD OEM Customer Computing said:
Out-of-band Wi-Fi remote management is for enterprise IT administrators to diagnose problems and fix them even when the operating system is down. It is an important tool. AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors with Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 provide professional-grade remote manageability for users in the new, hybrid workplace, ensuring that next-generation business laptops have the processing and connectivity tools needed to operate in modern environments.
Dino Bekis, Vice President and General Manager, Mobile Computing and Connectivity, Qualcomm, said:
Our collaboration with AMD reflects Qualcomm Technologies’ commitment to mobile computing. By optimizing FastConnect 6900 for platforms powered by AMD Ryzen 6000 Series processors, we bring secure Wi-Fi remote management to AMD enterprise customers. This represents the first step in our relationship to bring superior wireless connectivity to the AMD mobile computing roadmap.
HP vice president, commercial portfolio product management and experience, Gagan Singh, said:
At HP, customers are critical to thrive in today’s hybrid work environments. We are committed to creating solutions that offer innovative options. AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors deliver the high performance, battery life and remote management features our customers have come to expect, while the latest AMD Ryzen PRO processors with Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 offer enhanced connectivity.
Tom Butler, executive director of Lenovo IDG Commercial Portfolio, said:
Our corporate customers are demanding AMD Ryzen PRO 6000 Series processors with advanced manageability and superior Wi-Fi connectivity with Qualcomm FastConnect 6900 offering. The Wi-Fi 6E extension of 1200 MHz to the new 6GHz spectrum addresses the demand for reliable two-way data traffic, including video calls, collaboration tools like Microsoft Teams, and remote management to ensure continued productivity for the global workforce facing streaming congestion. play and school from home.
