NETGEAR INTRODUCES TRI-BAND WIFI 6E ACCESS POINT TARGETING SMALL AND MEDIUM BUSINESSES<\/p>\n

With fast throughput and low latency, the new WAX630E is the industry\u2019s most powerful access point with central cloud management<\/p>\n

San Jose, Calif. \u2013 February 22, 2022 \u2013 NETGEAR\u00ae, Inc. (NASDAQ: NTGR), the leading provider of networking products that power businesses both large and small, today announced the availability of the first tri-band, business-grade WiFi 6E product with cloud management for small and medium businesses (SMBs), the Insight Managed Tri-band AXE7800 Wireless Access Point (WAX630E). The addition of WiFi 6E makes NETGEAR\u2019s latest offering the fastest and most powerful WiFi option for SMBs everywhere.<\/p>\n

Since mid-March 2020, the pandemic drastically affected network usage and caused never-before-seen spikes in network traffic. This trend combined with the growing number of network-attached devices required for business \u2013 at home and in offices \u2013 has forced SMBs to require enhanced WiFi capabilities that improve performance, spectrum efficiency and throughput. The WAX630E answers each of these demands by providing all the features and capabilities of WiFi 6 access points while supporting the new wider 6GHz WiFi band.<\/p>\n

NETGEAR pioneered WiFi 6E technology for the smart, connected home with award-winning products such as the Orbi\u2122 Quad-band Mesh WiFi 6E System (RBKE960 Series), as well as the Nighthawk RAXE500 and RAXE300 routers. Now the company is helping to pave the way for a new generation of connectivity for small and medium businesses with WAX630E \u2013 ideally suited for the manufacturing, education, hospitality, municipality and retail sectors or any small business with limited IT staff.<\/p>\n

“As applications that include 4K and 8K video streaming or virtual and augmented reality become more pervasive, businesses will need to at least double their WiFi connection speeds to support them,\u201d said Doug Cheung, Director of Product Line Management, SMB Wireless at NETGEAR. \u201cWiFi 6E provides a wide open, fast superhighway to provide the required capacity and speed. The new WAX630E is the perfect onramp for SMBs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The WAX630E features a tri-band design, enabling the latest WiFi<\/a> 6E technologies. On both the 5GHz and 6GHz bands, the WAX630E can operate in the widest 160MHz WiFi channels. All three bands, 2.4GHz, 5GHz and 6GHz fully enable AX technologies such as MU-MIMO. Altogether, the WAX630E delivers an amazing aggregate throughput of 7.8Gbps, giving client devices on all three WiFi bands ultra-fast access to the internet and intranet.<\/p>\n

For management effectiveness and efficiency, the WAX630E is managed by NETGEAR Insight which provides centralized, real-time cloud management and control, with no need for extra hardware. The management platform is backward compatible to WiFi 5 and WiFi 6 Insight managed access points.<\/p>\n

Security Redefined<\/p>\n

In an increasingly connected and digital business environment, security has never been more important for small business owners. In fact, 43% of cyberattacks target small businesses, forcing owners to place added emphasis on how they protect their sensitive data, financials and customer information. Furthermore, with remote work here to stay, equipping employees with reliable WiFi security both in the office and in the home is now imperative. To answer these needs, NETGEAR\u2019s new WAX630E access point provides enterprise-level security without the need for an enterprise budget. Business owners can easily configure and maintain the security of their network.<\/p>\n
