The wireless landscape is evolving fast. As industry leaders like Semtech Sierra Wireless, Ericsson Cradlepoint, Peplink, and Cisco prepare to release their next-generation routers and gateways built for Wi-Fi 7 and 5G NR, one critical piece of the connectivity equation is already available: high-performance external antennas engineered for these next-gen networks. At AG Antenna, we’ve anticipated this shift. Our AG60 Enterprise Series and AG90 Low-Profile Series are fully optimized and commercially available to support the performance demands of Wi-Fi 7 and beyond.
Wi-Fi 7: The Next Leap in Wireless Technology
Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) isn’t just an incremental upgrade, it represents a paradigm shift in wireless communication. With 320 MHz channel bandwidth, 4K QAM modulation, Multi-Link Operation (MLO), and significantly reduced latency, Wi-Fi 7 is engineered to handle next-gen enterprise, industrial, and mobility applications that require maximum throughput, lower jitter, and enhanced spectral efficiency.
For integrators and end-users, the benefits are immediate:
- Higher data rates for real-time video, AI processing, and edge workloads
- Better reliability in congested environments
- Improved performance across multiple frequency bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz)
But to realize these benefits in the real world, your antenna system must match the technical sophistication of the router or gateway it’s paired with.
OEM Momentum: Wi-Fi 7 Devices on the Horizon
Across the wireless ecosystem, the race to Wi-Fi 7 has begun:
- Semtech Sierra Wireless is preparing Wi-Fi 7-enabled modules and embedded platforms for enterprise and automotive applications.
- Ericsson Cradlepoint is advancing its line of 5G/Wi-Fi 7 routers targeted at mobile broadband and branch networking.
- Peplink is integrating Wi-Fi 7 into bonded multi-WAN routers for high-availability deployments.
- Cisco is revamping its enterprise Wi-Fi lineup to embrace the speed and channel flexibility Wi-Fi 7 offers.
As these devices approach their official release windows, the need for external antenna systems, capable of fully supporting 5G NR and Wi-Fi 7 MIMO is immediate. AG Antenna is already ahead of the curve.
Built for Performance: AG60 and AG90 Series Overview
AG60 Enterprise Series > DATASHEET
The AG60 is designed for high-lead-count configurations supporting complex routers like the Cradlepoint IBR1700, Peplink HD4 MBX, and Cisco ISR series. With up to 11 leads in a single radome, including:

The RF Difference: Engineering That Delivers
Every AG60 and AG90 antenna is built on a foundation of precision RF engineering. From in-house simulation and design using cutting-edge tools to real-world validation in our controlled anechoic chambers, we fine-tune every element for maximum efficiency.
Key performance highlights:
- Multiple configurations and mounting capabilities
- Exceptional lead-to-lead isolation for clean MIMO performance
- Robust gain and radiation consistency, even in challenging RF environments
AG Antenna doesn’t follow the market—we anticipate it. Our Wi-Fi 7 antenna portfolio was developed in parallel with OEM chipset roadmaps, ensuring our hardware is not just compatible, but optimized.
Why Antennas Matter More Than Ever
Next-gen routers promise performance. But without antennas designed to operate across 5G NR and WiFi 7 frequencies, you’ll never see that performance realized in the field. Internal antennas suffer from attenuation, environmental constraints, and limited spatial diversity.
External antennas, like those in the AG60 and AG90 series, deliver:
- Proper polarization for high-order MIMO
- Physical separation of leads to maximize multipath utilization
- Freedom to mount antennas in RF-optimal positions (rooftop, bulkhead, etc.)
If you’re investing in a WiFi 7 or 5G router, pairing it with an antenna engineered for those technologies is not optional, it’s essential.
AG Antenna Is Ready. Are You?
WiFi 7 devices are arriving. Don’t wait until deployment to discover signal shortfalls. Our AG60 and AG90 Series antennas are in stock, field-proven, and ready to ship.
