Qualcomm Inc. said May 21 that it will work with Facebook Inc. to bring high-speed internet to urban areas.
The companies will use Facebook's Terragraph technology to develop a multinode wireless system based on 60 GHz technology from Qualcomm Technologies Inc. Terragraph supports broadband connectivity through a network based on millimeter-wave wireless backhaul.
Qualcomm Technologies will integrate certain chipsets with the Terragraph technology. The companies expect to begin trials by mid-2019.
