Cisco's Wi-Fi 7 represents a significant leap forward in wireless technology
Introducing Cisco's Revolutionary Wi-Fi 7
Experience lightning-fast connectivity with Cisco's Wi-Fi 7, offering global compatibility and dual support for Meraki and Catalyst platforms.
In the ever-evolving world of technology, staying ahead of the curve is crucial for businesses looking to maintain a competitive edge. That's why we're excited to announce that Cisco's latest innovation, the Wi-Fi 7, is soon available for order through YOT LTD and our B2B IT marketplace, FUSE, with shipping expected in January 2025.
But first, let's look at the Wi-Fi 7 Standard
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7™ is here to meet the growing user demands for immersive, interactive technology. Based on IEEE 802.11be technology, Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 enhances Wi-Fi performance in the 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands, bringing cutting-edge capabilities to enable innovations that require high throughput, lower latency, and greater reliability across home, enterprise, and industrial environments. Key applications supported by Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 include augmented, virtual, and extended reality (AR/VR/XR), immersive 3D training, and ultra-high definition video streaming. Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 will facilitate worldwide interoperability, a robust device ecosystem, and bring advanced Wi-Fi® performance to the next era of connected devices.
Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 networks support advanced Wi-Fi performance for high bandwidth applications to ensure each connected device delivers the dependable experience users expect, even in dense environments like stadiums and large campuses.
Key benefits of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 include:
Higher throughput
Improved support for deterministic latency
Enhanced efficiency, even in dense networks
Increased robustness and reliability
Reduced power consumption
The key features of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7 work together to deliver higher data throughputs and support deterministic latency for sophisticated use cases that demand first-rate reliability. New features include:
320 MHz superwide channels that are only available in 6 GHz provide twice the throughput of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 6®, enabling multigigabit Wi-Fi device speeds
Multi-Link Operation (MLO) supports more efficient load balancing of traffic among links, resulting in increased throughput and enhanced reliability
4K QAM achieves 20% higher transmission rates than Wi-Fi 6’s 1024 QAM for greater efficiency
512 Compressed Block Ack improves efficiency and reduces overhead
Multiple RUs to a single STA improves flexibility for spectrum resource scheduling to enhance spectrum efficiency

CW9172I, CW9172H and CW9174I will be available in 2025.
Breaking Regional Barriers
One of the most groundbreaking features of Cisco's Wi-Fi 7 is its global applicability. Unlike previous generations, Wi-Fi 7 is no longer constrained by regional limitations. This means businesses can deploy the same cutting-edge technology across their global operations without worrying about compatibility issues. This flexibility ensures that your IT infrastructure remains consistent, reliable, and future-proof, no matter where your offices are located. This is a great addition to niche environments such as Cruise Ships, Commercial Vessels and Super Yachts, which can benefit from auto frequency change and compliance without changing hardware.
New Licensing Model
Cisco has also introduced a new licensing model with Wi-Fi 7, designed to simplify the management and deployment of your wireless network. The new licenses offer greater flexibility and scalability, allowing businesses to tailor their network solutions to specific needs without unnecessary complexity. The new licenses are no longer mandatory but essentials to enable full functions, this means you can purchase the hardware without a license until deployment.
LIC-CW-E > Unified License Essentials
LIC-CW-A > Unified License Advantage
These licenses will replace all Meraki and DNA licenses in the future, starting with Wi-Fi 7 access points.
Versatility with Meraki and Catalyst
Cisco's Wi-Fi 7 is versatile, supporting both Meraki and Catalyst platforms. Whether you're looking for the cloud-managed simplicity of Meraki or the advanced networking capabilities of Catalyst, Wi-Fi 7 seamlessly integrates with both, offering the best of both worlds. This dual compatibility ensures that businesses can choose the solution that best fits their operational requirements without compromise.
