WiFi 6, which has been around for only a few years, is now being replaced by WiFi 7 or IEEE 802.11be. Equipment manufacturers are now rushing to phase in WiFi 7 products.&nbsp;Compex has released its latest WiFi 7 module WLE7002E25 to help shorten time to market. The Compex WLE7002E25 is a dual band concurrent 2&#215;2 2.4GHz and 2&#215;2 5GHz radio based on Qualcomm\u2019s Waikiki high performance WiFi 7 chipset which is capable of over 10Gbps raw data rate. It is in a stardard miniPCIe form factor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember54\"><strong>1. Standard MiniPCIe Form Factor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember55\">The standard miniPCIe footprint means that WLE7002E25 is readily compatible with existing systems and designs, particularly customers whose devices have been using WiFi 4 or WiFi 5 standard miniPCIe module. This simplifies integration since device manufacturers do not need to make modifications on their hardware to support a new generation WiFi module, thus reduces development costs and accelerates time-to-market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember56\">Below diagram shows the dimension difference between Qualcomm\u2019s&nbsp;high performance Waikiki&nbsp;M.2 E-key reference design and&nbsp;Compex\u2019s standard size miniPCIe module&nbsp;using the same Waikiki chipset:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1488\" height=\"909\" src=\"https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1458\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1.png 1488w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-900x550.png 900w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-300x183.png 300w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-1024x626.png 1024w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-768x469.png 768w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1-64x39.png 64w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1488px) 100vw, 1488px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember59\"><strong>2. Lower Power Consumption, Impressive Transmit Power<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember60\">Compex\u2019s RF engineers set themselves&nbsp;the twin targets of condensing the Qualcomm reference design&nbsp;by about 50%&nbsp;to an industrial standard form factor, as well as reducing its power consumption&nbsp;significantly. Compared with the high performance Qualcomm reference design, Compex is able to achieve the size and consumption targets with a little loss in performance. The following is a comparison of the RF power outputs and consumption between Compex WLE7002E25 and QualcommWK03.2 reference board.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1800\" height=\"390\" src=\"https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1457\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image.png 1800w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-900x195.png 900w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-300x65.png 300w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1024x222.png 1024w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-768x166.png 768w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-1536x333.png 1536w, https:\/\/wodatherm.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/image-64x14.png 64w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1800px) 100vw, 1800px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember63\"><strong>3. Multi-Link Operation (MLO)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember64\">An Important differentiator of WiFi 7 to WiFi 6 is MLO (Multi Link Operation). This allows a client to connect to the AP through multiple bands simultaneously. This has significant advantage in reducing latency. Latency is of critical importance to interactive applications such as games, robotics, real-time translation, teleconferencing and etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember65\">Compex\u2019s WLE7002E25 supports MLO between its 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. It also implements MLO signals between adapters to support MLO between the WLE7002E25 and other WiFi 7 modules such as Compex\u2019s&nbsp;4&#215;4 6GHz module WLE7000E6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember67\"><strong>4. Open Source Ath12k Support on Foreign Platform<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember68\">Compex Systems recognize&nbsp;the importance of supporting customers\u2019 products integration with open source ath12k. Ath12k integration support for non-Qualcomm platforms&nbsp;such as x86 embedded boards&nbsp;is also available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember70\"><strong>5. Competitive Pricing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember71\">Compex\u2019s WLE7002E25 is only marginally more expensive than WiFi 6 products of similar configurations. This is to encourage direct migration from WiFi 4 and WiFi 5 to WiFi 7, skipping the WiFi 6 development time and costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember73\"><strong>Investing in the Future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ember74\">The Compex WLE7002E25 represents more than just a Wi-Fi module; it&#8217;s an investment in the future. With its cutting-edge technology, comprehensive features, and diverse application potential, the Compex WLE7002E25 stands poised to rewrite the rules of wireless connectivity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In today&#8217;s hyper-connected world, reliable and high-speed wireless connectivity is no longer a luxury, but a necessity.&nbsp;WiFi standards have evolved rapidly.
