Technical Insight: 5GHz Channel Strategy and Wireless Architecture in Boegam E900P & F21SU Presentation Systems

As enterprise environments place higher demands on wireless communication—particularly for real-time audiovisual applications—the stability of wireless presentation systems has become a critical evaluation metric. Boegam’s flagship wireless presentation solution, the E900P receiver paired with the F21SU transmitter, is engineered specifically to deliver consistent low-latency performance under complex RF conditions.

Recently, a European partner raised professional questions regarding 5GHz DFS channels and the wireless architecture inside our devices. This technical article provides an in-depth explanation of how the E900P and F21SU handle channel allocation and how the wireless communication pipeline is designed for stability and robustness.

1. Background: Why DFS Channels Matter in Enterprise Installations

The 5GHz Wi-Fi band includes a set of frequencies known as DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) channels. In the EU and many regions, DFS channels (52–64 and 100–140) are shared with aviation radar, weather radar, and military radar systems. Devices operating on DFS channels must detect radar signals and immediately switch channels when necessary.

This requirement introduces several disadvantages for real-time wireless presentation:

  • Possible sudden channel vacating

  • Increased reconnection time

  • Mandatory radar scanning before allowing transmission

  • Higher risk of mid-session interruptions

For applications requiring stable, continuous screen sharing, such as conferences, training, education, and BYOM collaboration, DFS channels are not optimal.

2. E900P Operates Exclusively on Non-DFS Channels

To ensure maximum reliability, Boegam E900P does not use DFS channels—neither through hardware nor software configuration.

Supported 5GHz Non-DFS Channels

These channels provide:

  • Fast connection time

  • No DFS radar interruption

  • Stable long-duration performance

  • Full compliance with enterprise environments

The E900P also features:

  • Manual channel selection via Web Settings

  • Automatic channel optimization, which scans interference and selects the best available channel

This guarantees stable performance even in dense wireless environments such as corporate offices, universities, conference centers, and government facilities.

3. Wireless Transmission Architecture: Separation of Computation and RF Communication

A common assumption is that the system-on-chip (SoC) performs both video processing and wireless transmission. In fact, the E900P and F21SU use a modular wireless architecture, in which RF communication is fully handled by dedicated Wi-Fi chipsets.

Role of RK3566 SoC

The RK3566 in E900P serves as the central processor responsible for:

  • H.264 / H.265 video decoding

  • Multi-screen compositing (1–9 screens)

  • 4K60 video output

  • BYOM processing (USB camera/mic/speaker transport)

  • System logic, device management, web interface

It does not handle wireless RF communication.

4. Dedicated Wireless Modules in E900P & F21SU

Wireless communication is implemented through industry-proven Wi-Fi chipsets, selected for high performance, anti-interference capability, and long-distance stability.

E900P Receiver Module

  • Ampak AP6275P, Wi-Fi 6 (2T2R)

  • Optimized for high-stability reception

  • Supports both AP hotspot mode and STA client mode

  • Enables 50m line-of-sight wireless range

F21SU Transmitter Module

  • Realtek RTL8812CU

  • High-speed 5GHz wireless casting

  • Low latency (<150ms)

  • Stable A/V transmission up to 30m LOS

How Configuration Works

  • The WEB interface sends channel configuration commands to the system CPU

  • The CPU applies these settings to the wireless module through drivers

  • RF communication is fully executed by the Wi-Fi hardware module

This separation provides significant advantages:

  • Better thermal management

  • Superior wireless stability

  • Independent optimization of RF performance

  • Faster firmware iteration

5. Advantages of Non-DFS Channels in Professional Environments

Using only non-DFS channels ensures:

Zero radar-triggered disconnection

No forced channel switching due to radar detection.

Faster device startup and pairing

No DFS scanning delays.

Predictable performance

Ideal for AV integrators and IT managers deploying multi-room solutions.

Stronger stability during long meetings

Suitable for multi-hour conferences, training sessions, live streaming, and hybrid meetings.

6. Recommended Channel Practices for Integrators

For those deploying E900P and F21SU in Europe or similar regulatory regions, Boegam recommends:

  • Prefer channels 36–48 for maximum compatibility

  • Use “Auto Channel Optimization” in environments with heavy interference

  • Avoid physical obstructions when possible

  • Use 5GHz over 2.4GHz for highest stability and throughput

These simple practices further enhance transmission reliability.

Conclusion

The Boegam E900P + F21SU wireless presentation system is engineered with a clear priority: stability and low latency under real-world enterprise RF conditions.
By deliberately avoiding DFS channels and utilizing dedicated professional-grade wireless modules, the system delivers:

  • Reliable long-duration wireless operation

  • Low-latency A/V transmission (<150ms)

  • Smooth performance during corporate presentations

  • Robust BYOM support

  • High resilience to interference

As wireless presentation continues to evolve, Boegam remains committed to providing enterprise-grade, engineering-driven solutions that ensure performance you can trust in mission-critical environments.
