The chipmaker is opening its Wi-Fi 8 platform to drive broader AI edge adoption
Next-generation Wi-Fi 8 prioritizes predictability and reliability over raw speed
Broadcom has announced Wi-Fi 8 chips for home, enterprise and edge uses
Chip maker is also opening its Wi-Fi 8 platform to drive AI edge adoption
Broadcom has taken the wraps off a new family of Wi-Fi 8 chips that it says will underpin the next generation of intelligent wireless connectivity.
The chip maker is building an ecosystem that supports AI-driven devices at the network edge, covering everything from residential gateways to enterprise access points and connected vehicles.
As we’ve written previously, Wi-Fi 8 represents a new direction for wireless technology, as where earlier standards chased ever faster peak speeds, Wi-Fi 8 is more about reliability, latency, and the ability to maintain performance even when facing heavy demands.Broadcom licensing
Modern networks are no longer just about data downloads but rather handling a mix of voice, video, sensor data, and machine learning workloads that need to travel both ways, and with minimal delay.
