[Asia Economy Reporter Yoo Hyun-seok] Mercury, a specialized information and communication equipment company, announced on the 26th that it has signed a supply contract for next-generation Wi-Fi 6 routers with KT.


Through this contract, Mercury will supply Wi-Fi 6 routers (802.11ax AP) worth 13.4 billion KRW. This is the first supply contract for entry-level home devices provided to domestic telecommunications companies.
