Catatan
Wi-Fi itu penting, menangani 83% lalu lintas broadband global dan berfungsi sebagai cara utama untuk mengakses Internet. Dengan teknologi yang muncul seperti VR, gaming di cloud, kolaborasi virtual, streaming 8K, metaverse, dan AI, kebutuhan akan kecepatan yang lebih cepat dan latensi yang lebih rendah lebih krusial daripada sebelumnya. Dengan mengadopsi pita 6 GHz dan membuka potensi penuh Wi-Fi 7, Indonesia akan mengalami kecepatan yang sebelumnya tidak terjangkau dan efisiensi spektrum yang lebih baik.
Pembaruan ini memperkenalkan dukungan untuk pita 6 GHz yang lebih rendah, menambahkan 24 saluran 20 MHz—pendekatan yang diadopsi oleh 81% negara yang mendukung 6 GHz. Lebar saluran maksimum 80 MHz akan memastikan saluran berkinerja tinggi yang cukup untuk memenuhi kebutuhan penerapan padat di Indonesia.

Target Use Cases
Wi-Fi 6E and Wi-Fi 7 are unlocked with 6 GHz. Due to cost, users will typically be early adopters of premium hardware, including:
Premium residential users: Using 6 GHz capable high-throughput requiring hardware such as VR. Online gaming, where low latency improves gameplay. Extremely high throughput required for large media such as 8K streaming and large downloads (e.g. Flight Simulator).
Enterprises: With hundreds to thousands of connected devices, Enterprises are good target users for 6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7. Video conferencing, virtual desktops and remote collaboration tools benefit from Wi-Fi 7's latency improvements and deterministic performance. In Enterprise environments where network performance and reliability are crucial, both Wi-Fi 7 and 6 GHz provide significant improvements.
Catatan
Omitting channel width specifications is preferred. This allows for use of 320 MHz channels today, and room for spectral innovation tomorrow. Additionally, it simplifies compliance and avoids the risk of client fragmentation.
While we support the freedom to use 320 MHz channels, in practice, we discourage use of them for the following reasons:
With the lower-band, only 1x 320 MHz channel is usable.
Many devices do not support 320 MHz. See Apple and Google. (December 2024)
Wi-Fi 7 at 160 MHz is already capable of over 1.2 Gbps.
Many APs are limited by 2.5G ethernet uplinks.
10G SFP uplinked Enterprise AP will typically use 40/80 MHz for optimal channel reuse.
320 MHz may experience eroded performance due to higher co-channel interference.
Outside of impressive numbers and technical demonstrations, 320 MHz channels are impractical for widespread use. Wi-Fi 7 introduces new features that improve spectral efficiency and performance to levels that negate the common use of wider channels. These features include preamble puncturing, Multi-Link Operation (MLO), 4K-QAM and Coordinated Spatial Reuse. With these significant upgrades, Wi-Fi 7 unlocks the ability for networks to improve performance and spectral efficiency simultaneously.
Power Levels
Considerate power levels are preferred:
AFC is currently unwanted, due to its avoidable complexity. Few countries implement it.
LPI Standard Power (SP) requires AFC; no known application for TUCs (Target Use Cases).
SP is suited for PTP and PTMP links, which unlicensed6 GHz in Indonesia should not be used for.
For current TUCs, indoor use does not require anything beyond considerate levels.
LPI 30 dBm (FCC) adds power and risk, without valuable benefit. 6 GHz key benefit should be low noise levels, which enable high performance at the cost of less range. This is wanted behavior and 30 dBm would put this optimal usage at risk.
14 dBm matches FCC levels. Sufficient until more data is available.
Globally Compataible Firmware
Standard global firmware is preferred. Country-specific firmware that locks the regulatory domicile to Indonesia does not achieve the desired outcome, while introducing significant negates. Reasoning:
Reduces, but does not stop non-compliance.
Ensuring only certified devices are sold has incomplete impact.
Devices may easily be brought into the country.
Country-specific firmware and certification process introduces significant lag.
Customized firmware, as seen with other vendors, has lag and/or abandonment. Delaying or omitting critical security updates.
Dynamic compliance determination would potentially require remote calls with negative security implications.
Compliance should focus on incentive – users choosing to be compliant, because domestic policies provide an optimized level of performance.
Compliance is already, and increasingly more effectively imposed at the device level. iOS, macOS, Android, Windows, etc.
Maximized compliance achieved by focusing on permitted hardware categories (indoor AP).
A proper approach to compliance prioritizes addressing the most harmful violations. In the 5 GHz band, the unauthorized use of restricted frequencies for outdoor PTP/PTMP links has led to significant interference with meteorological radar and requires targeted action, specifically focusing on PTP/PTMP equipment. In contrast, indoor APs, even if misconfigured, present a far lower risk. This risk diminishes further in the 6 GHz band due to its higher natural attenuation. With appropriately designed devices, indoor APs pose minimal risk. This creates an opportunity to eliminate country-specific restrictions, enhancing security and accelerating global access to advanced hardware without unnecessary delays.
