Wi-Fi 7 is the latest breakthrough in wireless networking, promising faster speeds, better reliability, and the ability to support more devices than ever before. But to make the most of its capabilities, the right cabling infrastructure is essential. Here’s what you need to know.
Wi-Fi 7 achieves these improvements by using wider channels, advanced data encoding, and the ability to operate across multiple frequencies simultaneously.
While Wi-Fi is wireless, the backbone of any wireless network relies on cables. Access points (APs) need to connect to your network using Ethernet cables. The type and quality of these cables significantly affect your network's performance.
To fully support Wi-Fi 7, you’ll need high-performance cabling. Here are the key recommendations:
Cat6A or Higher:
Power over Ethernet (PoE):
Fibre Optic Backbones:
