A recent video demonstration from Morse Micro proves that the HaLow Wi-Fi standard, also known as IEEE 802.11ah, can maintain connections up to 3 kilometers, or just.
Forward-looking: Eight years ago, the Wi-Fi Alliance unveiled a new standard designed to support low-power devices with a range significantly greater than typical Wi-Fi. Recent tests have shown that this standard, while not exceedingly fast, can provide stable connections over ultra-long distances for various applications.
A recent video demonstration from Morse Micro proves that the HaLow Wi-Fi standard, also known as IEEE 802.11ah, can maintain connections up to 3 kilometers, or just under two miles. Although HaLow is not intended to replace Wi-Fi 6 or the new Wi-Fi 7, it could complement them in certain scenarios.
Operating on the 900 MHz spectrum and utilizing low power, HaLow is engineered to support smart buildings, IoT devices, wearables, and critical infrastructure.
