"In a trial conducted alongside an unnamed industry partner, the company said data transmission using a "prototype" device. This test successfully validated both the Wi-Fi 8 beacon and data throughput, according to TP-Link. "This underscores the feasibility of the technology and marks a critical milestone in global Wi-Fi 8 development," the company said in a statement. "TP-Link is taking the next important step towards the highly reliable wireless performance that the industry requires, given the increasing availability of devices and bandwidth-intensive applications.""
"Elsewhere, Wi-Fi 8 will also use a 48 Gbps data rate with a 320 MHz maximum channel bandwidth. So what's all the fuss about? What to expect from Wi-Fi 8 TP-Link is keen to emphasize that this marks the first major breakthrough in development of the new standard, which is a significant milestone. There will be notable improvements for users, however. Chief among these are stability and reliability, the firm noted."
TP-Link completed a trial of Wi‑Fi 8 alongside an unnamed industry partner and validated beacon transmission and data throughput using a prototype device. The company described the test as a critical milestone for global Wi‑Fi 8 development and emphasized progress toward highly reliable wireless performance. The Wi‑Fi Alliance began certifying devices supporting the new standard in early 2024. Wi‑Fi 8 will operate across 2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz bands, offers a 48 Gbps data rate and a 320 MHz maximum channel bandwidth. The standard prioritizes stability and ultra-high reliability rather than large speed or bandwidth jumps.
