Wi-Fi

Wi-Fi has become ubiquitous in both our personal and professional lives and it moves forward with the typical speed of technology. For example, upgrades to Wi-Fi 6 and 6E are currently being undertaken and yet Wi-Fi 7 is already available. With this progressing technology, Wi-Fi 7 delivers faster connections and lower latency, whilst accommodating more connections.

As ‘traditional’ Wi-Fi uses APs, it does not provide the dynamics of kinetic mesh to provide coverage in complex and challenging topographies, Wi-Fi can deliver fast and comprehensive services in a wide range of environments. Services such as high-quality video, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) that require high throughput and low latency but that can deliver improvements in productivity and safety.

Wireless connectivity technologies have evolved to support bandwidth-intensive worker productivity applications, reliable mobility for critical assets, and increased data collection from all areas of the work environment. All of which boost operational efficiencies whilst improving safety. However, all of this capability needs careful consideration and design to ensure that your Wi-Fi delivers the improvements being sought.
