A company plans to upgrade its office Wi-Fi, which currently uses the 802.11n standard. The goal is to achieve the best possible performance and efficiency to support a high number of new devices and bandwidth-heavy tasks. Which wireless standard represents the most significant and modern upgrade?
The 802.11ax standard, also known as Wi-Fi 6, is the best choice for a modern upgrade. It offers higher theoretical speeds than 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) and introduces key technologies like OFDMA, which significantly improves efficiency and performance in environments with many connected devices. While 802.11ac is a major improvement over 802.11n, 802.11ax is the superior and more current standard. 802.11g is an older, slower standard and would be a downgrade. Staying on 802.11n would not meet the goal of achieving the best possible performance.
