AI Storm Secures 360 Orders for its Wi-Fi 7 Router GT-W780 Enhancing Connectivity in High-Density Environments

AI Storm's Expansion with Wi-Fi 7 Router Orders

In a significant development for AI Storm Co., Ltd. (formerly known as Jexceed), the Tokyo-based company has announced it has secured a total of 360 orders for its cutting-edge Wi-Fi 7 router model, the GT-W780. As demands for high-density, low-latency connectivity escalate in venues and facilities, AI Storm’s new offerings promise to enhance the user experience for both attendees and staff, while improving operational efficiency.

Market Trends and Background

While many workplaces and facilities continue to operate on Wi-Fi 6 and 6E, the adoption of Wi-Fi 7 is gaining momentum. As the Wi-Fi Alliance is set to launch its “Wi-Fi CERTIFIED 7” certification in January 2024, the IEEE 802.11be standard, which represents Wi-Fi 7, is expected to be officially released by July 22, 2025. Recent data indicates that Wi-Fi 7 has captured approximately 21.2% of sales in the global corporate wireless LAN market, marking a notable step towards becoming mainstream in the coming years.

Why Wi-Fi 7 is the Future

The advantages of Wi-Fi 7 stem from its broader channel bandwidth (up to 320MHz) and its ability to support multi-link operation (MLO), which ensures consistent speed and stability even during peak usage times. Compared to Wi-Fi 6, this new standard excels in environments with numerous users and devices, making it particularly effective in crowded locations.

The modern internet demands robust, fast, and uninterrupted connectivity, making the desire for Wi-Fi 7 an increasingly prevalent necessity. Such features are incredibly beneficial in event venues, large commercial complexes, airports, stations, offices, factories, hotels, hospitals, and educational institutions—places where large gatherings of people and devices occur. Notably, AI Storm has showcased implementation success in diverse settings including the Tottori Sand Dunes and a frozen storage facility, among others.

Details of the Recent Orders

The recent acquisition of 360 units includes units selected as the standard models for municipal public Wi-Fi services across various regions. This order also includes additional requests from other businesses. The routers are designed to support stable communication in high-density environments, facilitating continuous connectivity for visitor networks and internal operational devices. The installation and supply of these units are currently underway. Operationally, the routers support cloud management and remote monitoring, establishing an efficient system flexible enough for large-scale short-term deployments as well as permanent installations.

Future Outlook for AI Storm

AI Storm is poised to enhance its business model by integrating the introduction and operational services of Wi-Fi 7 with broader collaborative deployments. The focus will initially accelerate the adoption of its technology in venues like event locations, large commercial facilities, airports/stations, offices, and logistics factories, where high-density access has become the norm. Furthermore, expanding cooperation through solutions like OpenRoaming will help broaden seamless connectivity in both indoor and outdoor areas, including tourist spots and shopping districts. AI Storm aspires to make the experience of fast and uninterrupted connectivity a societal norm, ultimately contributing to increased corporate value.

The company aims for its Wi-Fi 7 initiatives to become a growth engine, targeting a market capitalization of ¥50 billion.
