Netgear RAX200

details: Nighthawk Tri-Band AX12 12-Stream Wi-Fi 6 Router
hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2019-03-19
updated: 2020-02-22
The RAX200 is a Tri-band WiFi router with combined wireless speeds up to 11Gbps:
* 2.4GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024 QAM 20/40MHz, up to 1.2Gbps
* 5GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024 QAM 20/40/80/160MHz, up to 4.8Gbps
* 5GHz AX: 4x4 (Tx/Rx) 1024 QAM 20/40/80/160MHz, up to 4.8Gbps

With MU-MIMO, Wi-Fi 6 supports up to eight simultaneous streams for the number of users that can be served double at the same time as compared to an AC router.

Using the OFDMA feature of Wi-Fi 6, the WiFi traffic is managed much more efficiently since data is transmitted from different devices concurrently, rather than having each device's data wait for its turn. This results in an efficient use of air-time, reduced latency, and increased bandwidth to add more devices to your network.

Twelve WiFi spatial streams — eight streams of 5GHz & four streams of 2.4GHz — offer four times the device capacity as compared to typical 2x2 WiFi. This results in a significantly improved network capacity delivering multiple 4K/8K streaming, low latency gaming & new blazing fast Internet speeds.

Maximize your Internet speeds up to 2.5Gbps with new versatile Ethernet wired connections. Used for LAN or Internet connectivity, it is 2.5 times the wired speed of a typical Gigabit port. Or aggregate two Ethernet ports for up to 2Gbps of Internet speed.

This next-generation Nighthawk Tri-Band AX12 Wi-Fi 6 Router router design conceals eight (8) high-performance antennas under the 'wings'. The antennas are optimally positioned for best WiFi performance and extend strong and reliable WiFi coverage indoors and outdoors.
