Be the First to Experience 6GHz Wi-Fi 7 in the Philippines with TP-Link’s New Devices

By Laviet Joaquin

Manila, Philippines (November 8, 2024) — TP-Link continues to provide innovative network connectivity solutions for the digital age as it unveiled its latest Wi-Fi 7 products, with 6GHz, in the Philippines. Building on the success of the previous Wi-Fi 7 launch earlier this year, this release takes indoor connectivity to the next level. Now with 6GHz and a host of new features, these routers and mesh systems offer improved bandwidth, low latency, and enhanced stability, perfectly capable of addressing the needs of  modern digital lifestyles.

Why 6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7

6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7 are the next big steps in wireless technology, bringing faster, more reliable, and lower-latency internet.

The 6 GHz band opens up a new, less crowded wireless lane that allows for smoother connections with less interference—especially important in crowded homes or offices with many devices. It’s like adding more highways to reduce traffic jams.

Wi-Fi 7 takes advantage of this new 6 GHz band and introduces advanced features like faster data rates (up to 46 Gbps), multi-link operation, and better support for multiple devices at once. This means ultra-smooth 4K/8K streaming, lag-free gaming, faster downloads, and more efficient smart home performance.

6 GHz and Wi-Fi 7 together offer the fastest, most future-ready Wi-Fi experience available today.

What is WiFi 7?

Wi-Fi 7 is the latest and fastest version of Wi-Fi technology, designed to deliver ultra-high-speed, low-latency wireless internet. It's also known as IEEE 802.11be and is the successor to Wi-Fi 6 and 6E.

Wi-Fi 7 supports all three frequency bands—2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz—and introduces new features like Multi-Link Operation (MLO), which lets devices connect over multiple bands at once for better speed and stability. It also uses wider channels (up to 320 MHz) and higher QAM (4096-QAM) to push data even faster, making it perfect for 4K/8K streaming, cloud gaming, virtual reality, and high-demand smart homes.

Enhanced Performance, Now with 6GHz Wi-Fi 7 Technology

The newest Wi-Fi products from TP-Link usher in 6GHz frequency in the Philippines. 6GHz offers higher bandwidth, preventing congestion compared to 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies. This also allows the devices to deliver faster speeds with lower latency, making a significant leap forward in indoor connectivity and unlocking new levels of performance that were previously unreachable with dual band Wi-Fi products.

Whether users are looking for a seamless whole-home network connection, a powerful  router for daily online activities, or an optimized gaming experience, TP-Link’s latest Wi-Fi 7 lineup has something to offer.
