TP-Link has announced preorders for Wi-Fi 8 routers, but the launch in the US may be impacted by a potential FCC ban on certain Wi-Fi 8 frequencies, which could limit its availability in the American market.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Deep Tech: Telecom & Connectivity.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face regulatory risk selling Wi-Fi 8 routers in the US as the FCC may block key frequencies. Act now to build US-independent go-to-market plans or shift focus to other regions.
