7SIGNAL Sensors
Optimizing enterprise Wi‑Fi and digital experiences for end‑users
Designed to optimize Wi‑Fi 4, 5 & 6 networks.
The 7S6300 Wi‑Fi Performance Sensor
The 7SIGNAL® platform uses multiple data sources to provide insight into Wi‑Fi Health. The 7S6300 is a vendor‑agnostic Wi‑Fi and RF sensor that acts as a perfect client on the network. The sensor collects and analyzes coverage, congestion, interference and connectivity data from the environment and sends it to the cloud where it is displayed within the 7SIGNAL platform dashboard or shared via API with other tools. The 7S6300 is engineered for 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac/ax environments and fully supports Wi‑Fi 4/5/6/6E.

7SIGNAL Sensors vs Access Points
The 7S6300 is not an Access Point—it's a powerful performance sensor that optimizes the wireless environment. A single sensor can monitor up to 6 access points. 7SIGNAL provides added layers of visibility and diagnostic capabilities that WLAN tools don't offer. 7SIGNAL is vendor‑agnostic and provides independent data. It bridges the visibility gap between the infrastructure and end‑user experience, ensuring organizations get the most out of Wi‑Fi and increase business efficiency.
7SIGNAL Sensors vs Infrastructure Monitoring
Unlike IT infrastructure monitoring vendors, 7SIGNAL provides visibility of the Wi‑Fi experience from the end‑user's point of view. 7SIGNAL monitors the edge of the network (Layers 1–7) where the wireless experience matters most.
