The imminent launch of Wi-Fi 7 heralds a new era in wireless connectivity, offering a theoretical maximum throughput of 40 Gbps, four times faster than its predecessor, Wi-Fi 6. By operating in the 6GHz band and utilizing a maximum channel width of 320MHz, Wi-Fi 7 promises to deliver significant improvements in streaming capabilities and support for cloud-based applications, video conferencing, and IoT connectivity. Its role will be pivotal in enabling industrial automation, home entertainment, smart cities, immersive technologies, and Industry 4.0. However, commercial use of Wi-Fi 7 access points is expected to be limited until 2023-2024, and Wi-Fi 6 is likely to remain the dominant technology for the next 1-2 years.
