XREAL's Unannounced AR Glasses Computing Kit Clears FCC Certification with Wi-Fi 6E Support

An unannounced augmented reality (AR) computing accessory from XREAL has surfaced in official regulatory databases after clearing the United States Federal Communications Commission (FCC) certification. Initially uncovered by tech outlet MIXED, the device is cataloged under the designation "AR Glasses Computing Kit" with model number B6111 and FCC ID 2BBNY-B6111, featuring support for advanced wireless connectivity including Wi-Fi 6E.

Public records indicate that XREAL submitted the regulatory application on September 11 and was granted four equipment authorizations on October 8. Issued by Germany-based NMi TESTLAB GmbH, all four grants correspond to a single FCC ID, confirming they assess distinct radio spectrum bands and wireless transmission protocols for the same computing module rather than separate hardware products.

In terms of wireless capabilities, the unit supports Wi-Fi 6E across the 6 GHz spectrum (5955 MHz to 7115 MHz), with a maximum Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) of 0.059W. The filing specifies channel bandwidth configurations across 20 MHz, 40 MHz, 80 MHz, and 160 MHz, the latter enabling high data capacity suitable for high-bandwidth, short-range transmission demands. Additionally, the device supports legacy 2.4 GHz (20 MHz and 40 MHz) and 5 GHz (up to 80 MHz) networks, alongside Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) antenna technology.

The FCC documents also detail body-worn radio frequency (RF) exposure requirements. Testing mandates that the device be operated with non-metallic accessories such as belt clips or holsters, maintaining a minimum separation distance of 5 mm from the body. Compliance reports record a maximum Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of 1.18 W/kg during simultaneous multi-signal transmissions and a peak power density of 1.94 W/m² in the 6 GHz band, adhering to standard regulatory safety limits.

The standalone computing architecture closely resembles XREAL's recently announced XREAL AURA, which also utilizes a split setup pairing wearable frames with an external compute unit running Android XR powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon Reality Elite platform. However, the FCC documentation contains no reference to the AURA moniker, specific processors, or software platforms, leaving it uncertain whether model B6111 represents AURA or a different device. While FCC approval confirms compliance with radio emission benchmarks, it does not confirm final industrial design, specific use cases, or an immediate commercial release.
