Wi-Fi technology has made impressive strides, and the latest generation of Wi-Fi 6E promises to take it even further. Unlike earlier Wi-Fi generations that only utilized the 2.4 and 5 GHz spectrum bands, Wi-Fi 6E introduces 6 GHz frequency band connectivity for the first time.
In fact, Wi-Fi 6E is a foundational generation of Wi-Fi due to its 6 GHz connectivity. This means that future Wi-Fi generations like Wi-Fi 7 and Wi-Fi 8 will be built upon the same 6 GHz spectrum foundation that debuted with Wi-Fi 6E.
The availability of the 6 GHz spectrum represents a crucial milestone in Wi-Fi technology. This new spectrum offers faster data speeds, increased capacity, reduced interference, and better latency. The next generation, Wi-Fi 7, will build upon this foundation with new technical building blocks, including 320 MHz channels, 4K QAM modulation, multi-link operation (MLO), puncturing, and more. These advancements will further enhance the capabilities of Wi-Fi technology and allow for even more efficient and reliable wireless connectivity.
