This additional patent award further deepens Edgewater's leadership in multilink operation (MLO), arguably the most significant feature in the WiFi7 specification. Edgewater's spectrum slicing is the only technology that force multiplies the available channels, or links, within a single Wi-Fi band, effectively allowing for the highest link density in the industry -- improving latency by 50 per cent and increasing aggregate Wi-Fi throughput seven to 18 times in real-world Wi-Fi environments.
