JustWiFi⁷™: COMPEX’ Driverless Ethernet Integration
New Generation of Wi-Fi7 Embedded Modules
With JustWiFi⁷™, COMPEX introduces a new generation of Wi-Fi7 embedded modules that eliminates the need for traditional driver integration. The connection is established via standard Ethernet protocols – either through USB (JustWiFi⁷™-Fiber) or Cat8 Ethernet (JustWiFi⁷™-Cat8). As a result, the host system recognizes the module simply as an Ethernet port, while all Wi-Fi functions are processed directly within the module itself.
Maximum Platform Flexibility with Minimal Integration Effort
JustWiFi⁷™ significantly reduces integration complexity, as neither kernel-specific drivers nor host-side firmware modifications are required. At the same time, the solution enables platform-independent operation across Intel x86 and ARM-based SoCs such as NXP and Marvell – regardless of the operating system used.
Wi-Fi7 Performance for Industrial, IoT, and Enterprise Applications
JustWiFi⁷™ has been specifically designed for industrial, IoT, edge computing, and enterprise applications, simplifying Wi-Fi7 integration considerably. At the same time, the solution delivers the full performance of the latest wireless standard – even on non-Qualcomm platforms.
Key Benefits of COMPEX JustWiFi⁷™ at a Glance
- Driverless Ethernet Integration: No kernel-specific drivers or host-side firmware modifications required. Communication is handled entirely via standard Ethernet protocols.
- Standalone, Host-Independent Design: All Wi-Fi functions - including Multi-Link Operation (MLO) – run directly on the module.
- True Tri-Band Wi-Fi7: Simultaneous MU-MIMO 2×2 operation in the 2.4GHz, 5GHz, and 6GHz bands with a total throughput of up to 9.334Gbit/s
- MLO Without Integration Overhead: Higher throughput, lower latency, and improved connection reliability – even on non-Qualcomm hosts
- Flexible Configuration and Easy Management
- EasyMesh Support Integrated into the Module
- Optimized ACK Timeout: Adjustable acknowledgement timing for stable long-range connections
- Faster Time to Market: Reduced development effort by eliminating complex driver development and firmware dependencies
What Is the Advantage of COMPEX JustWiFi⁷™ Compared to Conventional Wi-Fi7 Modules?
COMPEX JustWiFi⁷™ does not require traditional host-side driver integration, as communication is handled via standard Ethernet protocols. This enables much faster and simpler integration of Wi-Fi7 features such as Tri-Band connectivity and Multi-Link Operation (MLO) into industrial, IoT, and embedded systems – regardless of platform or operating system.
