Unprecedented speed, reliability, and efficiency with Multi-Link Operation (MLO)
Wi-Fi 7 introduces Multi-Link Operation (MLO), a groundbreaking feature that transforms how devices connect and communicate over wireless networks. Unlike traditional Wi-Fi, where devices use a single channel on a single band, MLO enables devices to simultaneously transmit and receive data across two frequency bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, or 6 GHz). This multi-link capability delivers unprecedented speed, reliability, and efficiency, setting a new standard for next-generation connectivity.
Wi-Fi 7 with Multi-Link Operation is more than just an upgrade—it’s a paradigm shift in wireless technology. By combining higher speeds, lower latency, and robust reliability, MLO unlocks a world of opportunities for homes, enterprises, and smart cities alike. Whether you're a business aiming to support next-gen applications or a consumer seeking flawless streaming and gaming experiences, MLO ensures your network is ready for what’s next.
Key Benefits of Multi-link Operation (MLO)
Blazing-Fast Speeds
MLO can leverage multiple links to aggregate bandwidth, significantly boosting throughput and potentially achieving speeds in excess of 8 Gbps*. This ensures smoother experiences for bandwidth-intensive applications like 8K streaming, cloud gaming, and AR/VR.
Ultra-Low Latency
By distributing traffic across multiple links, MLO minimizes congestion and reduces latency, making it ideal for real-time applications such as video conferencing and online gaming.
Unmatched Reliability
MLO offers seamless redundancy by dynamically switching between links in the event of interference or degradation. This ensures consistent performance, even in challenging network environments.
Better Spectrum Utilization
MLO optimizes the use of all available frequency bands, unlocking the full potential of the 6 GHz spectrum.
Embrace MLO today and redefine your wireless experience!
* 8.6 Gbps is a result of a 2x2 client aggregating a 320 MHz wide 6 GHz channel and a 160 MHz wide 5 GHz channel
