Cisco included Wi-Fi 7 APs in its AI-ready architecture launch, making Wi-Fi 7 hardware available for order in Q4 2025; this accelerates enterprise use cases that demand more bandwidth and lower latency.

As part of its global AI architecture announcement, Cisco added Wi-Fi 7 access points (models CW9171I/CW9174) and a compatible controller (CW9800L) to its hardware orderable in Q4 2025. This marks a concrete step for businesses to begin planning migrations to Wi-Fi 7 in environments with high device density or low-latency applications (8K videoconferencing, XR, telepresence, real-time analytics).

For integrators and IT departments, the arrival of Wi-Fi 7 access points means reviewing topologies (6 GHz channeling, MLO, advanced QoS) and conducting interoperability tests with existing equipment. SITE PERÚ can propose pilot programs in strategic branches to measure real gains in throughput and latency before a widespread deployment, as well as update PoE, switch capacity, and segmentation policies to ensure performance and security.
