RCR Wireless Wi-Fi Forum 2025

Tuesday January 28th

As the 6 GHz spectrum becomes increasingly accessible worldwide, Wi-Fi 7 adoption is poised for rapid expansion across diverse applications, use cases, and market sectors. While speed remains important, users now prioritize reliability and low latency, whether in enterprise environments or residential settings. But how can all end-users unlock the full potential of this advanced technology? What steps can they take to ensure optimal quality of service, minimal latency, maximum bandwidth, and reduced interference?

Join Spirent's two sessions during this live event.

11:25 AM - 11:45 PM EST

Presentation: Unleashing whole-home Gbps: the role of mesh testing in Wi-Fi 7

Consumers have been paying a premium for gigabit-per-second internet speeds for some time. However, many still struggle to experience these speeds consistently throughout their homes. Wi-Fi 7 has the potential to be a game changer, enabling whole-home gigabit speeds for the first time. Achieving this, however, requires a high-performing and well-tested mesh network. In this session, we will explore:

• What are the challenges in achieving whole-home Gbps connectivity?
• How do you ensure good coverage throughout the home?
• What are the key steps for ensuring mesh system performance to achieve maximum speeds throughout the home?
• What is repeatable mesh testing, and why is it crucial?
