Chinese networking equipment manufacturing company TP-Link has started testing next-gen Wi-Fi 8. TP-Link said that it has successfully sent and received data from the prototype device made in collaboration with other companies including Qualcomm. The company says that Wi-Fi 8 is now moving from being an industry concept to becoming a real-world technology. Let us know in detail what is special in this technology and what changes are going to happen in life with its arrival.
What is Wi-Fi 8?
Wi-Fi 8 is the next generation wireless connectivity technology, on which work is currently underway. The old and current versions of Wi-Fi have focused only on top speed, but in the new generation, emphasis is being laid on making the connection as stable and consistent as a wired network. As of now this technology is in its initial stage and its testing has started. The new technology is providing 25 percent faster speed compared to the current version, even in areas with weak signals. Similarly, its latency is low and the problem of connection drop is also less.
What will change with the arrival of Wi-Fi 8?
The core signal and data transfer speed of this technology has been verified in TP-Link’s trials. Once ready, this technology will be able to provide fast, reliable and stable internet connection. With its help, you will be able to get fast and stable speed even in crowded areas and when many devices are connected simultaneously. It has been designed to handle things like AI-powered systems, robotics and industrial automation.
When will Wi-Fi 8 be launched in India?
This technology is expected to get final approval by March 2028. Only after this, devices with this technology support will start coming in the market. If we talk about India, it may take more time to launch this technology here. The reason behind this is that the government has postponed the allocation of spectrum range required for this technology.
