wi-fi 7 the next generation of wireless internet is here

The Wi-Fi Alliance is now officially certifying products that support Wi-Fi 7, the next generation of wireless internet. With certification, we should soon start to see new products such as smartphones, laptops, and routers using the Wi-Fi 7 standard, which will likely mean huge speed and efficiency gains.

Although Wi-Fi 7 Routers have already been released by companies like Netgear, TP-Link, and Eero, the products still need to be officially certified. That doesn’t mean they won’t work with Wi-Fi 7, but it does mean that some companies can’t officially guarantee compatibility for their devices just yet.

wi-fi 7 features

Wi-Fi 7 devices offer up to double the bandwidth of those using earlier standards, meaning the potential for wireless download speeds of two gigabits per second and theoretical local network speeds of up to 46 gigabits per second (though real-world peaks of 5-6 Gbps are more probable).

The technology also features Multi-Link Operation (MLO), which bonds connections spread across two or three of the 2.4 GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands, giving extra speed and stability and allowing users to move more seamlessly between wireless access points.

In addition, Wi-Fi 7 may also unlock the use of additional bands between the 1Ghz and 7GHz+ range, but that will depend on local legislation and availability.

Wi-Fi 7 devices are backward-compatible with previous versions, though those older devices won’t benefit from new Wi-Fi 7 features or see a speed increase. However, if you’re a tech enthusiast or early adopter, a new Wi-Fi 7 router would be a fantastic upgrade to future-proof your home internet setup.

Cemplicity

Cemplicity — a leading health-tech company founded in 2013 — has launched its advanced platform in the UAE, aiming to revolutionize patient care and streamline healthcare operations to improve clinical outcomes.

Designed to analyze patient-reported data in real-time, the platform incorporates Patient-Reported Experience Measures (PREMs) and Patient-Reported Outcome Measures (PROMs) to collect and analyze patient feedback. By transforming the data into actionable insights, healthcare providers will be better equipped to improve quality of care and increase efficiency.

Cemplicity’s technology can even tackle chronic conditions like diabetes, which affects 12.3% of the UAE population. By enabling regular symptom tracking and side-effect monitoring (even when patients are at home) the platform ensures proactive care management, and can also optimize early detection and screening of cancers.

Blaik Wilson, Cemplicity’s CEO, shared: “We are excited to bring Cemplicity to the UAE, a nation committed to healthcare excellence. With the private healthcare sector evolving at an impressive pace, partnering with such forward-thinking providers enables us to transform patient feedback into meaningful insights that enhance patient experiences and improve outcomes”.

Wilson added: “Globally, healthcare produces 30% of the world’s data volume. Aggregating and anonymizing patient-reported data not only uncovers trends and evaluates treatment outcomes but also advances the UAE’s broader ambition to lead in medical research and innovation”.

With a presence in nine countries and partnerships with major healthcare providers like the UK’s National Health Service (NHS), Cemplicity has already redefined how hospitals and clinics leverage patient feedback. Its tools, known for achieving high survey response rates, help link patient experiences to organizational KPIs and Net Promoter Scores (NPS), enabling measurable improvements in operations, and clinical outcomes, while fostering a culture of continuous improvement.

For the UAE market, the platform has been specially adapted to local needs, offering multilingual support (including Arabic) and seamless integration with tools such as WhatsApp and various hospital management systems.
