Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO‡)
Using Multi-User MIMO technology, NETGEAR routers can stream data to multiple devices simultaneously. With MU-MIMO, your WiFi network can deliver faster throughput to every MU-MIMO connected device. That means faster downloads and smoother streaming for your devices.
BEAMFORMING —FOR MORE RELIABLE CONNECTIONS
Unlike typical WiFi routers that just blast the WiFi signals in all directions, with Beamforming the router & device communicate with each other, so the router can directly beam the WiFi signal to the device. The result is a stronger, faster, more reliable connection that is locked in even when the device is moved around the home.
• Focuses WiFi signals from the wireless router to WiFi devices like smartphones, tablets & laptops
• Automatic signal management checks with your device to keep WiFi signal at its optimal strength
• Designed for home environments to support multiple WiFi device connections for highest quality
• Extends WiFi coverage, reduces deadpots, & boosts signal strength
• Implicit & Explicit Beamforming boosts speed, reliability & range for both 2.4 & 5GHz WiFi devices
Enhanced Active Antennas
Each new generation of routers grows more powerful than the last, delivering stronger WiFi signals with greater range. At the same time, the WiFi signals on mobile devices are not getting more powerful. This difference in WiFi performance – a strong WiFi signal from the router and weaker ones from mobile devices – reduces overall WiFi range and speed.
To meet this challenge, NETGEAR developed the industry’s first Active Antennas technology. NETGEAR moved the WiFi amplifiers from their usual location, on the router’s motherboard, up to the top of the antennas.
Active antennas help improve WiFi performance by amplifying signals in the antenna itself. Thereby avoiding any signal loss during transmission between antenna and router board, as well as avoiding any noise insertion from the router board components. This provides cleaner and stronger receive signals for amplification from your mobile devices.
In X10, enhanced Active antennas also amplify the signals as they are sent to the devices thereby increasing overall range and throughput.
