LAS VEGAS, NV and TORONTO, ON, December 22nd, 2016 - Peraso Technologies Inc., a leader in Wireless Gigabit (WiGig®) chipsets, will be demonstrating multiple 802.11ad applications, including 4K wireless gaming and wireless networking at CES 2017. The demonstrations are based on Peraso's Wi-Fi CERTIFIED WiGigTM W110 USB 3.0 adapter, and their recently announced W120 WiGig phased array chipset.

By using the 60 GHz band, WiGig-enabled products will provide a new level of wireless interactivity in bandwidth-hungry applications such as gaming and VR. 2017 is set to be an important year in the evolution of this technology with product announcements arriving as early as Q1. WiGig boasts extremely high data rates of more than 5x that of 802.11ac, solving congestion issues often associated with typical Wi-Fi.

Peraso will be featuring the following WiGig applications during CES 2017:

- Multi-gigabit 802.11ad wireless connectivity
- Multi-vendor 802.11ad access point interoperability
- 4K WiGig wireless display and gaming
