Highlighted: the sentence this signal was extracted from

Apple is further advancing the development of the upcoming 6G mobile standard and is also making personnel preparations. The planned market readiness around the year 2030 is approaching in leaps and bounds. And as current job postings show, the company is specifically looking for engineers for the system architecture of its own 6G mobile modems. They are to play a key role in shaping the next generation of mobile technology. Especially since Apple now develops its modems in-house, the corporation is laying the foundation for its own future chip hardware at an early stage. Although 6G is still in a development phase and the exact performance specifications as well as frequency bands will only be officially adopted at the end of this year, the standard promises extremely low latencies, higher data rates, and improved energy efficiency. As a founding member of the Next G Alliance, Apple is working together with industry giants such as Qualcomm, Nokia, and Samsung on the further development of the technology. In the future, it is also expected to significantly expand fixed-line internet via cellular. Note: Article contains affiliate links. What is that? Photo: Freepik
