Wi-Fi 8: Wi-Fi 8 testing successful, speeds faster than broadband, find out when it will launch..

TP-Link, in collaboration with Qualcomm, has successfully conducted the first test of Wi-Fi 8. Wi-Fi 8 will provide fast speeds as well as a highly stable and reliable internet connection. Importantly, Wi-Fi 8 can provide stable connections even in crowded areas. This technology is being specifically developed for high-demand use cases such as AI, robotics, and industrial automation.
What is Wi-Fi 8 and why is it special?
Wi-Fi 8 is a next-generation wireless connectivity technology developed by the IEEE, focusing not only on speed but also on connection stability and reliability. This technology will deliver approximately 25 percent faster speeds and lower latency than the current Wi-Fi 7. Importantly, it will reduce connection drops and provide improved performance even in weak signal areas.
TP-Link and Qualcomm conducted successful testing.
TP-Link, in collaboration with Qualcomm, developed the prototype Wi-Fi 8 device and successfully transferred data. This testing validates Wi-Fi 8's core signal and data speeds, a crucial step toward its commercial deployment. The technology aims to meet the demands of advanced AI systems, robotics, and industrial automation.
Key Features of Wi-Fi 8
Wi-Fi 8 will feature improved energy efficiency, 25% lower latency, and 25% faster speeds. Additionally, connection drops will be reduced, and peer-to-peer communication will be improved. The technology will also perform better in multi-device environments, ensuring consistent internet speed and stability even in crowded areas.
When will Wi-Fi 8 arrive in India?
The deployment of Wi-Fi 8 in India may be delayed due to spectrum allocation complications. The government has yet to decide whether to reserve the 6GHz band for mobile telephony or open it up for Wi-Fi. Tech companies are demanding that the government open this band for Wi-Fi, while telecom operators want to keep it for mobile services.
