Qualcomm Technologies and RF360 Holdings First to Announce RF Front End Hexaplexer with BAW and SAW Filter Technologies

BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM), and RF360 Holdings Singapore PTE. Ltd. (RF360 Holdings) a Qualcomm and TDK Joint Venture are the first to announce a hexaplexer RF solution that incorporates their latest bulk acoustic wave (BAW) and surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter technologies to support optimal performance, size and cost for increasingly complex frequency band combinations. The new hexaplexer solution complements our product line of filters, duplexers, and multiplexers, by addressing diverse carrier aggregation configurations that operators have been deploying to enhance user experience as they expand Gigabit LTE coverage, speed and capacity. The new solution can benefit original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) by simplifying carrier aggregation support in Qualcomm Technologies' power amplifier modules, thereby improving size and cost efficiency of design and helping accelerate time to global launch. For consumers, the low insertion loss of the hexaplexer solution is designed to support long battery life and superior data rates.
