RCRWirelessNews, Thursday, March 13th, 2025
Wi-Fi 8 will be an incremental change rather than a completely new technical standard, but it will take reliability to the next level
Though certification for Wi-Fi 8, or 802.11bn, is not expected until 2028, vendors and standards bodies are already formulating plans around what Wi-Fi 8 will be and what features will be included. In the same way that Wi-Fi 7 has been dubbed Extremely High Throughput (EHT), Wi-Fi 8 is being called Ultra High Reliability (UHR) and is expected to be aimed at industrial applications.
