The stakes are high for people designing IoT devices and building out IoT networks that rely on Wi-Fi connectivity. Because IoT networks in a range of industries rely so heavily on Wi- Fi networks, the resulting network congestion and RF complexity too often lead to degraded performance and reliability. The dueling demands of so many Wi-Fi-based IoT devices push Wi-Fi-based networks to their limits. As a solution, engineers can resolve all of these demands with the adoption of dual-band Wi-Fi.
