Real-World Application: Building Long-Range Outdoor Links with DR9574 + QCN9274

As industries demand faster, more stable, and longer-distance wireless connectivity, Wi-Fi 7 platforms are becoming the preferred choice for outdoor point-to-point (PtP) and point-to-multipoint (PtMP) deployments.
In this article, we explore how the Wallys DR9574 router board, combined with the Qualcomm QCN9274 Wi-Fi 7 radio, delivers exceptional long-range outdoor performance, high throughput, and robust reliability for real-world industrial applications.

Why DR9574 + QCN9274 Is Ideal for Long-Range Outdoor Links1. Wi-Fi 7 MLO for Ultra-Stable Links

The QCN9274 supports Multi-Link Operation (MLO), enabling simultaneous data transmission over multiple bands.
Benefits include:

• Lower latency across long distances
• Improved link resilience under interference
• Higher aggregated throughput for demanding applications
  
  

This is especially valuable for outdoor links exposed to noise, weather, and dynamic RF environments.

2. Long-Range Optimized Hardware Design

The Wallys DR9574 uses Qualcomm’s IPQ9574 platform and provides:

• High-gain antenna support
• Industrial-grade power design
• Multiple PCIe slots for high-performance Wi-Fi 7 cards such as the QCN9274
• Excellent heat dissipation for outdoor enclosures
  
  

These features ensure stable operation even in harsh climates.

3. High Throughput for Bandwidth-Intensive Applications

With the QCN9274’s 4x4 MU-MIMO and 320 MHz channel width, users can achieve:

• Gigabit-level wireless backhaul
• High-speed CCTV/Video streaming
• Fast data offloading between remote sites
  
  

This makes the solution suitable for modern high-capacity outdoor networks.

Deployment Tips for Long-Range Links

To achieve the best real-world performance:

1. Use High-Gain Directional Antennas

Pair with:

• 25–30 dBi parabolic dish
• High-gain horn for PtMP
  
  

2. Ensure Clear Line of Sight

Avoid:

• Trees
• Buildings
• Water surfaces (may cause reflections)
  
  

3. Optimize Channel Selection

Use:

• DFS bands for lower noise
• 6 GHz where regulation allows
  
  

4. Enable MLO Smart Routing

MLO dynamically selects the best band for real-time traffic.
