Qualcomm has shown off the ‘world’s first’ Wi-Fi 7 compatible product at Mobile World Congress (MWC) in Barcelona.
The company claims the FastConnect 7800 connectivity chip will enable peak speeds of 5.8Gbps and sub-2 millisecond latency in a variety of devices – once compatible network equipment is available.
As the name suggests, Wi-Fi 7 is the latest generation of wireless internet technology. However, standardisation is still at an early stage and the World Broadband Alliance (WBA) does not expect the first Wi-Fi 7 devices to be available until 2025.
