Since WiFi 7 is so powerful, will it replace the same powerful 5G? Some people will ask this question, and today I will tell you the secrets of this~
actually doesn’t.
These two are completely different things. Wi-Fi is a local area network (LAN) that is mainly used indoors, such as homes or workplaces. Cellular networks, such as 4G LTE networks used by major operators, are wide area network (WAN) used indoors and outdoors, usually used over long distances.
5G networks will provide 50x speed, 10x latency and 1000x capacity compared to 4G/LTE, which means 5G will be able to connect more devices and transfer more data than ever before, providing fast connectivity and significantly enhancing the user experience. Like LTE, mobile operators will provide subscription services for their 5G networks, which requires 5G-enabled devices.
So 5G technology and WiFi technology are always complementary.
Wi-Fi is costly to deploy, maintain and expand, so it is generally used for access networks, and 5G is used for mobile connections, such as smartphones, connected cars, smart cities deployment, and even for large-scale manufacturing scenarios.
In recent years, wireless technology has developed rapidly, and the freedom it provides has changed all aspects of our work and life. It can be said that where there is a network, WiFi is everywhere. I believe that in the near future, WiFi will develop better and better.
OK! That’s all for today’s sharing! See you next time ~
