WiFi 6 — Ready for today and tomorrow’s Smart Home: Introducing WiFi 6 (AX), the latest generation of WiFi that delivers up to four times better performance than WiFi 5 (AC). With innovative technologies, such as Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple-Access (OFDMA), and intelligent scheduling, WiFi 6 delivers a huge boost in speed and total capacity. Rising to the challenges of modern smart home demands, this new standard of WiFi is ready to support more devices with better reliability and faster speeds. Capacity: WiFi 6 gives you improved network capacity for more WiFi devices. Have more fun with uninterrupted 4K streaming, gaming, and the smart home experience. Speed: Get ultra-fast wireless speeds with more connections for all devices with less congestion. You’ll get some blazing connection speeds of more than one gigabit per second or more, for 4K streaming and VR/AR gaming. Range: Experience strong and reliable WiFi coverage indoors and outdoors for all your devices. High-performance antennas on the router, pre-optimised for best performance, amplify WiFi signals for maximised range and reliable coverage. 4-Stream WiFi 6 — 2x better performance: More WiFi streams means more available bandwidth and less congestion for all the devices in the WiFi network. The Nighthawk RAX40 provides consistent and powerful signal strength to multiple devices at the same time so you can enjoy smooth gaming and 4K UHD video streaming, faster file transfers and backups. Uplink and downlink OFDMA: Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) substantially improves the network capacity and efficiency. Get faster WiFi download & upload speeds by transmitting to up to 16 devices at the same time. Improved network capacity for more WiFi devices: Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) enables efficient data scheduling so that more transmissions can be sent at the same time, resulting in an impressive capacity increase in your network. This increased or available bandwidth allows you to add more devices to your network. The Nighthawk RAX40 supports uplink and downlink OFDMA to efficiently use air-time with better frequency reuse, reduced latency, and increased network efficiency. This is extremely useful for latency sensitive applications such as virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR) and Internet of things (IoT) sensors. Powerful dual-core processor: The Nighthawk RAX40's powerful dual-core processor with fully offloaded CPU is designed to transfer multi-gigs of data. Full-packet processing offload means zero load on the CPU, so you can do more on your WiFi without slowing down. Enjoy smoother Ultra-HD 4K video streaming and gaming without interruptions. Gigabit WiFi to mobile devices: Now maximise the wireless benefits of your Gigabit internet service plans so you can connect, stream and download faster. The latest WiFi 6 standard supports 160MHz bandwidth that enables Gigabit WiFi speeds to the newer PCs and mobile devices that support 160MHz bandwidth.
