Definition: Wi-Fi 7


The latest generation of Wi-Fi with wireless routers debuting in 2024. Wi-Fi 7 is the Wi-Fi Alliance branding of the 802.11be standard from the IEEE. It uses 4096QAM, four times the modulation of Wi-Fi 6, and double the channel widths from 160 to 320 MHz. Wi-Fi 7 operates in the same 2.4, 5 and 6 GHz bands as Wi-Fi 6E, and it adds Multi-Link Operation (MLO), which enables devices to transmit over multiple bands simultaneously. See 802.11 versions.
