In the ever-evolving world of technology, advancements in wireless networks play a vital role in shaping our digital experience. As we continue to demand faster speeds, lower latency and more reliable connections, the emergence of new WiFi standards has become critical. WiFi 7 is one of those standards that holds promise for the future.
WiFi 7, also known as IEEE 802.11be, is the intended successor to WiFi 6 (802.11ax), is the seventh generation of the WiFi standard.
WiFi 7 offers significant improvements over WiFi 6, including the introduction of 320 MHz bandwidth, 4096-QAM modulation, Multi-RU technology, multi-link operation, MU-MIMO (Multi- Improved User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) and Multi-AP (Access Point) collaboration technology. Together, these technologies enable WiFi 7 to deliver extremely high data rates and low latency, reaching speeds of up to 46 Gbps, more than four times the maximum speed of Wi-Fi 6 (9.6 Gbps).
Additionally, WiFi 7 supports the 6GHz band, which, unlike the traditional 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands, can operate simultaneously, significantly increasing available spectrum and capacity. These features make WiFi 7 ideal for supporting high-bandwidth applications such as virtual reality (VR), 8K video streaming , fully immersive augmented reality (AR)/VR, and low-latency gaming.

In contrast, while WiFi 7 offers significant performance improvements, it is also fully compatible with previous Wi-Fi standards, meaning that existing devices can still use WiFi 7 networks, albeit to take full advantage of all With the new features and performance improvements of WiFi 7, users may need to update their devices, including routers, access points and smartphones, laptops and other devices.
In short, WiFi 7 represents an exciting glimpse into the future of wireless networks. With the promise of faster speeds, lower latency and greater capacity, it has the potential to revolutionize the way we connect and communicate in the digital age. While the standardization process is still a work in progress, the outlook for WiFi 7 bodes well for the bright future of wireless technology.
While WiFi 7 devices are not available, you can consider our WiFi 6 ONT, which can achieve up to 3000M high-speed WiFi, enjoying the smoothness and joy of the Internet.
