IMDA Singapore

On May 12, 2023, the Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) published an announcement regarding the allocation of the 6 GHz band in Singapore. This decision comes after a thorough consideration of public comments and views gathered during the consultation period that opened on February 14, 2023.

IMDA has taken a significant stride towards enhancing Wi-Fi connectivity in Singapore by allocating an additional 500 MHz of spectrum in the 6 GHz band. This allocation not only complements Singapore’s Nationwide Broadband Network (NBN) and 5G mobile networks but also paves the way for the deployment of the latest Wi-Fi 6E technology.

Timeline for Wi-Fi 6E in Singapore

IMDA will amend its Regulations to allocate the radio frequency spectrum 5,925 MHz – 6,425 MHz for Wi-Fi use in Singapore.

IMDA expects Wi-Fi 6E-enabled equipment and devices to be commercially available in Singapore by 3Q 2023.
