you need about 20 gigabits per second for 4k 60hz. Or more, for higher resolutions and refresh rate - which vision pro has, compared to ~6 gigabits per second, that you need for your quest pro's resolution. That's why they make these.

And having compressed video streaming to a VR device sounds like my worst nightmare.

Wifi 7 has a peak rate of 40 Gbps.

Maybe it does, and it still would (probably) not be enough for two 4k 90hz displays that this has.

And is nowhere in any consumer product today. How is it relevant to this discussion?

Vision Pro is also not a consumer product today.

WiFi 7 was all over the devices at CES though. It's happening soon.
