Wi-Fi HaLow is a low-power, long-range variant of Wi-Fi, based on the IEEE 802.11ah standard. It operates in the sub-GHz range (850-950 MHz), enabling it to penetrate obstacles such as walls and buildings and connect a larger number of IoT devices over much greater distances.

In February, Morse Micro showcased Wi-Fi HaLow’s capabilities by achieving a 3-kilometer (1.8 miles) video call, setting a record for long-range connectivity using the 802.11ah standard. In its latest range test, Morse Micro conducted trials at Joshua Tree National Park, a rural area known for its expansive open spaces and minimal RF interference. This test successfully achieved an impressive range of 16 kilometers (10 miles), five times the previous distance.
