Multi-Link Operation (MLO) is a major technical advancement and key differentiator for Wi-Fi 7. It's the reason why the new standard can achieve and maintain 1ms latency, even for the most data-demanding, real-time applications. It is critical for keeping up with real-time and latency-sensitive applications.
MLO multiplies throughput via link aggregation compared with Wi-Fi 6 single link operation. It achieves this by allowing for band-switching and load-balancing, while specific implementations such as EMLSR deliver 80% throughput enhancement in dense environment and 85% average latency reductions when the network experiences high load.
