Huawei Ranked No. 1 Both Globally and in China in Enterprise-Class Wi-Fi 7 Market Share and Shipments, Continuing to Lead the Wi-Fi 7 Era

[Shenzhen, China, March 17, 2026] Huawei recently announced that it ranked No. 1 both globally and in China in enterprise-class Wi-Fi 7 market share and shipments, according to IDC's Worldwide Quarterly Wireless LAN Tracker® (2025 Q4). This marks the second consecutive year that Huawei has maintained its strong leadership since IDC first released Wi-Fi 7 market statistics in 2024. It also reflects the strong market recognition of Huawei's technological strengths, as well as the company's deep expertise and continuous innovation in the wireless networking domain.

Leading the Industry: From Standards Contributions to Commercial Deployments

Huawei has long been committed to advancing wireless experience through technological innovation. Notably, Huawei has been a key contributor to the Wi-Fi industry, actively participating in and leading global Wi-Fi standardization. For Wi-Fi 7, Huawei ranks No. 1 globally in standards contributions.

Since releasing the world's first enterprise-class Wi-Fi 7 Access Point (AP) in 2022, Huawei has continued to propel the industry forward: In 2023, it passed rigorous testing by Tolly and completed the world's first commercial Wi-Fi 7 network deployment; in 2024, it launched the industry's first complete Wi-Fi 7 product portfolio for all scenarios and received the world's first enterprise-class Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7™ certificate from the Wi-Fi Alliance.

To date, Huawei has shipped over 2 million enterprise-class Wi-Fi 7 products, providing a solid network foundation to accelerate digital and intelligent transformation across industries worldwide.

Reshaping Experience: Huawei AirEngine Wi-Fi 7 Powers Superfast, Intelligent, and Secure High-Quality Campus Networks

Going beyond the native capabilities of Wi-Fi 7, Huawei AirEngine Wi-Fi 7 reshapes the campus network experience across three key dimensions: Superfast smooth connectivity, intelligent spaces, and full-scope security.

• Superfast smooth connectivity addresses high-density user challenges: For high-concurrency scenarios, Huawei pioneered multi-AP coordination technology—Intelligent Coordinated Scheduling and Spatial Reuse (iCSSR)—along with dynamic-zoom smart antenna technology. These innovations enable microsecond-level coordination between APs, delivering terminal performance twice the industry average and ensuring stable, smooth connectivity in dense environments such as large venues and office campuses.

• Intelligent spaces unlock business innovations: Huawei extends wireless networks beyond connectivity into sensing. Leveraging Wi-Fi Channel State Information (CSI) technology, a single AP can detect anomalies in the surrounding environment without any additional hardware. This capability integrates with the Building Management System (BMS) and video security systems to enable innovative applications such as intelligent energy saving and intrusion detection.

• Full-scope security ensures multi-layered protection: To address wireless signal security risks, Huawei introduced Wi-Fi Shield technology, which leverages proprietary AI-based scrambling to ensure that only target terminals can decode valid signals, keeping air-interface data fully protected. Huawei also launched the industry's first iGuard AP for sensitive scenarios such as executive offices, confidential meeting rooms, and hotel guest rooms. Equipped with AI-powered feature matching algorithms, the AP can accurately detect various hidden imaging devices, safeguarding both trade and personal privacy.

"Huawei's continued leadership in enterprise-class Wi-Fi 7 is a testament to the market's recognition of our technological strengths and product quality," said Shawn Zhao, President of the Campus Network Domain, Huawei's Data Communication Product Line. "Looking ahead, we will continue to develop more innovative applications in Wi-Fi + IoT, Wi-Fi + sensing, and Wi-Fi + security, delivering higher-quality, more efficient, and more secure wireless network solutions to global customers, and leading them into a smarter digital future."
