On December 14, IT House reported that earlier this year, Qualcomm launched the world's first and fastest commercial Wi Fi 7 solution, the FastConnect 7800. In May, it launched the world's most scalable commercial Wi Fi 7 professional networking solution, covering enterprise level, home mesh networking products and operator gateways. Today, Qualcomm released the Wi Fi 7 immersive home networking platform. This time, it is designed for families. Home networking will achieve faster speed, higher throughput and lower latency. It is expected to be commercially available in the second half of 2023.

With a compact, energy-efficient and cost-effective chip architecture, Qualcomm's Wi Fi 7 immersive home networking platform can bring more than 20Gbps of total system capacity. It is aimed at today's families with ultra strong networking needs, and brings support for the latest high-speed broadband connection and the increasingly popular number of high-performance terminals. The platform introduces Qualcomm Multi Link Mesh technology, bringing a new breakthrough in home network connectivity.
Nick Kucharewski, senior vice president and general manager of wireless infrastructure and networking business of Qualcomm Technologies, said, "The Qualcomm immersive home networking platform we have developed is cost-effective and compact, bringing the latest innovations in home networking and helping to achieve high-performance network connectivity. With the tri band system, users will be able to fully experience the new powerful features brought by Wi Fi 7. In this way, the Wi Fi mesh network will improve the performance of both new and traditional terminals. "
IT Home learned that the latest immersive home networking platform shares a common architecture with the mass produced Qualcomm Wi Fi 7 professional networking platform, which is currently being sampled and is expected to be commercially available in the second half of 2023.
The features of Qualcomm's Wi Fi 7 immersive home networking platform are as follows:
Qualcomm Multi connection Mesh Network Technology: Qualcomm Multi connection Mesh Network Technology redefines the home networking experience by dynamically managing the new mode of wireless connection from the client back to the mesh. Qualcomm's multi connected mesh network technology can select, aggregate or alternate links in the 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz licensed free spectrum according to network conditions, terminal capabilities and home network topology. It can achieve deterministic low latency in congested network environments, and bring 75% real-time delay reduction, helping to achieve a virtually jam free gaming experience.
Wi Fi 7 technology: Qualcomm immersive home networking platform can bring extreme high performance and achieve a wider coverage of thousands of megabits than ever before. Key features include:
The extended 5GHz spectrum performance, through the 240MHz channel and 4K QAM modulation technology, brings 80% higher throughput than Wi Fi 6.
Maximize the use of 6GHz spectrum performance, and improve the throughput by 140% over Wi Fi 6E through 320MHz channel and 4K QAM modulation technology. Fully support Qualcomm's automatic frequency control technology, and realize the network coverage of thousands of megabits in the whole house. Qualcomm automatic frequency control technology is currently available for user equipment integration and will be commercially available after regulatory approval.
It supports Wi Fi 7 multi connection and adaptive interference punching technology, which can bring operation optimization even in a crowded home network environment. Intelligent congestion avoidance algorithm can ensure excellent performance even in the case of potential interference from adjacent networks or other terminals.
It provides maximum connection support for the latest high-performance terminals. A single networked terminal can achieve a peak speed of up to 5.8 Gbps.
High performance platform innovation: Qualcomm's immersive home networking platform solution is based on a modular and scalable design architecture, which is cost-effective and compact in shape to achieve high-performance home network connectivity and accelerate product time to market. Key features include:
Platform design optimized for size, energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness, including advanced manufacturing process and fully integrated RF front-end modules (FEMs) for performance optimization.
Highly differentiated configuration designed for customers. The tri band Wi Fi 7 configuration brings a peak wireless capacity of 10 Gbps to 20 Gbps, almost twice the capacity of similar Wi Fi 6 systems. The platform is very suitable for the whole house networking scheme using mesh network system, while supporting the requirements of more users, faster connection or wider coverage.
