The 802.11az standard introduces advanced location capabilities to Wi-Fi networks. It significantly improves the accuracy, reliability, and scalability of positioning compared to its predecessor (802.11mc). 802.11az enables precise indoor and outdoor location tracking with sub-meter accuracy, supporting secure, authenticated, and private positioning.
Key benefits of 802.11az:
Less than 1 m accuracy
Security
Scalable to a large number of client devices
Zebra Wi-Fi 7 devices support the 802.11az Wi-Fi location feature.
In the ET401 devices, this feature is supported either by the ET401 Enterprise model from the factory or by upgrading the ET401 Professional model with an Enterprise license, but it is not available in the standalone ET401 Professional model.
