Linux OS/IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 support a variety of wifi features, 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless protocols

IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 are highly integrated chips introduced by Qualcomm for use in embedded systems and networking devices. They all belong to Qualcomm's IPQ family of chips, designed for high-performance routers and wireless access points.

However, there are some differences between IPQ9570 and IPQ9574, including the following:

Performance: IPQ9574 is slightly higher than IPQ9570 in performance. The IPQ9574 is powered by a quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 processor clocking up to 2.2GHz and powered by Qualcomm's own network acceleration engine, providing superior network performance and processing power. The IPQ9570 uses a quad-core Arm Cortex-A53 processor with a maximum of 1.8GHz, which is a bit lower performance.

Network interface: The IPQ9574 supports up to 12 gigabit Ethernet interfaces and two 10 gigabit Ethernet interfaces for connecting wired network devices such as switches and wired clients. The IPQ9570 supports eight gigabit Ethernet ports and two 10 gigabit Ethernet ports.

Network acceleration technology: IPQ9574 is more powerful in network acceleration technology. It supports Qualcomm's Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) and Qualcomm® Wi-Fi SON technology, which can provide improved wireless performance and network stability. While IPQ9570 also supports MU-MIMO and Wi-Fi SON technology, but the function may be simplified.

Purpose: The IPQ9574 is mainly used for network devices such as high-performance routers and wireless access points. It is suitable for scenarios that require high-performance processing and complex network acceleration. The IPQ9570 applies to mid-range and high-end routers and wireless access points, and is suitable for scenarios with low performance requirements.

IPQ9570 supports the following frequency bands:

Wi-Fi (wireless local Area Network) : Supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless protocols, including 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

 

Cellular network (mobile network) : It does not support cellular communication, that is, 2G/3G/4G/5G communication.

IPQ9574 chip support frequency band:

Wi-Fi (wireless local Area Network) : Supports 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless protocols, including 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

Cellular network (mobile network) : Support 2G/3G/4G/5G communication, including LTE and 5G bands in various frequency bands.

Supports a variety of Wi-Fi functions, including the following:

Support for 802.11: Both IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 chips support the 802.11a/b/g/n/ac/ax wireless protocol, which enables high-speed Wi-Fi wireless local area network (WLAN) connection and supports 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands.

Mesh Network: Both IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 chips support Mesh networks, namely mesh networks. Through self-organization and self-management among multiple nodes, coverage expansion and signal optimization of the entire network can be realized. This can provide stable wireless coverage in a large area, which is suitable for complex scenes such as large residential buildings, office buildings and hotels.

MU-MIMO technology: Both IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 chips support multi-user multi-input Multi-output (MU-MIMO) technology to communicate with multiple devices simultaneously, providing higher wireless network performance and throughput.

Beamforming technology: Supported by both IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 chips, Beamforming technology provides superior wireless coverage and signal quality in the form of targeted transmission and reception of wireless signals.

Wi-Fi security: Both IPQ9570 and IPQ9574 chips support a variety of Wi-Fi security functions, such as WPA3 encryption, WEP encryption, authentication, and encryption protocols, to protect the security of wireless networks.
