Multi-link Operation

MLO (Multi-Link Operation) is one of the prominent features defined in new 802.11 802.11 is an evolving family of specifications for wireless LANs developed by a working group of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). 802.11 standards use the Ethernet protocol and Carrier Sense Multiple Access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) for path sharing. be protocol that allows WLAN Wireless Local Area Network. WLAN is a 802.11 standards-based LAN that the users access through a wireless connection. traffic exchange over multiple links.

The benefits of MLO are as follows:

  • It increases robustness and reliability in the presence of interference

  • Improves support for low latency clients

  • Provides higher aggregate throughput in the network
