Intel has become a supplier of modems for iPhone 6c. It is reported that Intel has reached an agreement with Apple to supply modems to "popular" model iPhone, which is rumored to be get a 4-inch display and will be presented in early 2016.
This transaction is part of Intel's plans to increase the market share of network solutions. Intel has a team of developers who work on modems specifically for the iPhone. Currently, the company has a number of modems that may interest Apple. Those are model Intel XMM 7260 and XMM 7262, that support LTE-Advanced Cat. 6, with 22 bands and a speed of 300 Mbit / s.
Note that Intel XMM 7360 is a solution that supports LTE Cat. 10, although it has a relatively high cost, so it is more likely to come for the iPhone 7. Either for its successful promotion of the company will have to reduce its cost, which has a positive impact on the dissemination of solutions, but not on income.
