Ian DescherHOST
It's meant to recognize existing customers rather than reward them for accumulating transactions.
Ian DescherHOST
Moving from the customer experience to the technology behind it, G-Fiber, Qualcomm, and Gemtech unveiled a new Wi-Fi 8 gateway designed for G-Fiber's symmetrical 20 gigabit service.
Ian DescherHOST
The companies are calling the device AI-native.
Ian DescherHOST
Rather than sending every request to the cloud, it is designed to process certain AI functions directly in the home gateway.

Linus SebastianHOST
So glad you asked that because, yes, Luke, you are bang on.
Linus SebastianHOST
Wi-Fi 8 is not getting any speed changes.
Linus SebastianHOST
Wi-Fi 8 is straight up a fix all the nonsense, make it work better generational improvement.
Luke LafreniereHOST
Which I'm so cool with.
Linus SebastianHOST
And I'm here for it.
Jesse OwenHOST
The announced platform supports 10 gigabit passive optical network deployments, DDR5 memory, 25 and 50 gigabit connectivity, and low latency networking.
Jesse OwenHOST
MaxLinear also describes infrastructure intended for future Wi-Fi 8 products and hardware readiness for post-quantum cryptography.
Jesse OwenHOST
The proposed local AI jobs are practical rather than flashy.
Jesse OwenHOST
Network diagnostics, security, and quality of service management inside the gateway.
Daniel NowatzkiHOST
Grandstream, with its Wi-Fi 6 access point series, its Wi-Fi 7 lineup, and its tri-band options is an excellent example, offering Wi-Fi network devices that are optimized for voice.
Daniel NowatzkiHOST
A peek into the future, Wi-Fi 8.
Daniel NowatzkiHOST
Today we stand on the threshold of the introduction of Wi-Fi 8, an iteration of wireless technology that seeks to introduce improvements in network reliability rather than simply higher speeds.
Daniel NowatzkiHOST
As a network service that requires high availability and reliability, voice is poised to benefit even more from the improvements being designed in this upcoming technology, currently targeted to be finalized in early 2028.
Daniel NowatzkiHOST
In conclusion, both Wi-Fi 6 and Wi-Fi 7 are standards that can successfully support voice applications in dense wireless environments.
Tim RenierHOST
Thanks, Jen.
Tim RenierHOST
This month's issue brings together some really interesting articles on the wide variety of topics from RF front ends for Wi-Fi 8 applications, how to protect UAVs and drones from electromagnetic pulse attacks, to good basic engineering advice on how to select the right filter for your application.
Tim RenierHOST
We also have a market analysis piece on the image sensor market.
Tim RenierHOST
Watch on for highlights of these and more.
Jen DeMarcoHOST
[upbeat music] Let's start with the cover feature for the October issue.
Jen DeMarcoHOST
This comes from Quantel RF out of Zurich, Switzerland.
Jen DeMarcoHOST
The new Wi-Fi 8 standards are already in early draft form, and the demands on linearity are significant.
Jen DeMarcoHOST
The next gen RF front ends will need to support 4K QAM and will be required to perform at coverage edges during mobility and roaming and within tight power and latency budgets.
Stephen FenechHOST
So if you've got the latest is Wi-Fi 7 is the latest.
Stephen FenechHOST
Wi-Fi 8 is about to be released.
Stephen FenechHOST
But Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E, Wi-Fi 7, this can help you achieve more than twice the average download speeds than those other people
Trevor LongHOST
stuck on the older Wi-Fi formats.
Scott McNeilGUEST
They don't necessarily look at it from a secure standpoint.
Scott McNeilGUEST
And there's a lot of things that you need to really pay attention to, especially with all the latest, greatest advancements when you're looking at Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 6E, and now Wi-Fi 7, and then Wi-Fi 8 is right around the
Aaron CrowHOST
corner,
Scott McNeilGUEST
right? Mm-hmm.
Mahesh KrishnaswamyGUEST
For what we need indoors, Wi-Fi is adequate.
Mahesh KrishnaswamyGUEST
In fact, Wi-Fi 7, Wi-Fi 8 is pretty adequate.
Scott BichenoHOST
And Li-Fi gets its name from light.
Scott BichenoHOST
Exactly.
