You know that staying ahead of the technology curve is vital for all businesses in a highly competitive marketplace. One innovation launched earlier this year is Wi-Fi 7, the next generation of wireless connection.
But what exactly does it offer, and is it worth the investment for your business?
- Lightning-fast speeds: No more buffering and lagging. Wi-Fi 7 brings blazing-fast speeds to keep your business running smoothly.
- Rock-solid connections: Forget all about dropped calls or lost connections. Wi-Fi 7 ensures reliable performance, even in busy environments.
- Futureproofing: Wi-Fi 7 is built to handle the demands of tomorrow’s tech. It’s future-proofing your business’s internet.
Now, here’s the million-dollar question: Should you upgrade to Wi-Fi 7? Well, it depends. While Wi-Fi 7 offers some awesome benefits, it can be a bit pricey to upgrade.
The initial investment includes the expense of next-gen routers capable of supporting Wi-Fi 7, which can range from hundreds up to thousands. And there may also be ongoing operational costs, especially if you’re leasing routers from internet service providers.
One of the most significant advantages of Wi-Fi 7 is its dramatically increased data transmission speeds, which are expected to reach up to 30 Gbps. This is a substantial leap from the previous generation, Wi-Fi 6, which tops out at approximately 9.6 Gbps. Such speeds make Wi-Fi 7 well-suited for high-bandwidth activities like virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), 4K/8K video streaming, and more, offering a smoother and more immersive user experience. Additionally, Wi-Fi 7 introduces improved latency performance, meaning that the delay between sending a request and receiving a response is minimized. This improvement is crucial for applications requiring real-time interaction, such as online gaming and video conferencing.
If you’re not ready to dive into Wi-Fi 7 just yet, that’s ok. There are plenty of other ways to improve your business’s existing Wi-Fi. From optimizing your current setup to adding extenders or mesh networks, there are options to fit every budget.
