hardware type: Wireless Router
date added: 2019-04-10

The RAX40 provides Wi-Fi speeds up to 3Gbps (600Mbps + 2.4Gbps). It provides consistent 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.

OFDMA allows efficient data transmission to up to 16 devices at the same time. Uplink OFDMA improves scheduling during high volumes of upload traffic, particularly when that traffic is created simultaneously.

160MHz Channel Support doubles the speeds as offered by 80MHz channels to provide Gigabit speeds for compatible mobile devices and laptops.

Nighthawk AX4's 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.
