Extreme Accelerates Leadership Position in Next-Generation Wi-Fi 7
Extreme Networks, Inc., a leader in AI-powered automation for networking, has introduced several new Wi-Fi 7 solutions to deliver fast, secure connectivity for critical use cases including real-time AI workloads, AR/VR experiences, smart manufacturing, telehealth, and high-density venues. Organizations worldwide including Baylor University, Henry Ford Health, Six Flags, University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust, and multiple NFL teams already rely on Extreme’s Wi-Fi 7 solutions to power high-density connectivity, real-time applications, and next-generation digital experiences.
Extreme offers the industry’s most complete, deployment-ready Wi-Fi 7 portfolio, delivering Access Points (APs) that combine optimized performance with practical efficiency and support everything from demanding environments like hospitals and stadiums to cost-effective deployments in schools, retail, and hospitality. Easily managed through Extreme Platform ONE™, they deliver secure, reliable connectivity without the power tradeoffs common in competing solutions. Support for both low and standard power 6 GHz enables customers to benefit from Wi-Fi 7 performance gains without switch or power upgrades, delivering built-in compliance for global regulations.
- The AP5060 series outdoor and AP5022 series indoor APs deliver premium performance with three 4×4 radios, a dedicated tri-band security sensor, and integrated IoT radios to support growing device demands.
- The AP5060 is engineered for harsh environments, combining a ruggedized design with the durability and resilience needed to deliver reliable, long-term connectivity in demanding settings such as hospitals, industrial facilities, and stadiums.
- Both series support flexible tri-band operation on standard PoE+ (802.3at), allowing customers to deploy broadly while choosing the right balance of radio performance, scanning, and functionality for each environment.
- The AP3020 series indoor and AP3060 weatherized outdoor series deliver full-feature Wi-Fi 7 at a competitive cost, with 2×2 radio designs optimized for space and power-constrained environments like schools, retail, and hospitality.
- The AP3020W features a low-profile wall plate design that balances aesthetics and functionality, making it a natural fit for hospitality, education, and multi-dwelling environments.
- The AP3020X includes support for external antennas, enabling more flexible designs for environments that benefit from directional Wi-Fi like high-density venues.
- The AP3060 is IP67-rated and offers a compact design with an extended temperature range, built to withstand harsh conditions from high winds to sub-zero temperatures.
“Wi-Fi 7 adoption is accelerating as organizations scale IoT and real-time AI workloads. Extreme’s cloud-managed Wi-Fi 7 solutions combine high-performance hardware with intelligent management to simplify operations and keep networks ready for what’s next,” said Siân Morgan, Research Director at Dell’Oro Group.
“Our customers need reliable, high-speed Wi-Fi more than ever, especially as mobility, real-time applications, and device density continue to increase and we move further into the era of 6 GHz connectivity,” said David Coleman, Director of Wireless in the Office of the CTO at Extreme Networks. “These Wi-Fi 7 solutions will help customers meet those demands with stronger performance for modern AI-driven environments, improved power efficiency, and simpler deployment and operations at scale.”
