TP-Link Introduces New 802.11ax (Wi-Fi 6) Wireless Standard With Five New Offerings
TP-Link today unveiled a full product line of WiFi routers that supports the new 802.11ax wireless standard, also known as Wi-Fi 6.
Leading the lineup is TP-Link’s first AX Mesh WiFi product — the Deco X10 Whole Home Mesh WiFi System. Featuring Mesh technology overlaid with AX speeds, the Deco X10 is designed to provide AX2700 tri-band speeds to every corner of your home with a backhaul up to 1.95Gbps.
Next up is the Archer AX11000, a tri-band gaming router. The AX11000 is TP-Link’s first AX Wi-Fi gaming router and is designed for users who insist on the highest performance and fastest functionality. The AX11000 transmits data at tri-band speeds up to 10756 Mbps in total, and its OFDMA technology and Gaming Accelerator combine to demolish latency and interference.
Another model in the lineup is the Archer AX6000, a Wi-Fi 6 router that provides 1148 Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 4804 Mbps on the 5GHz band. It supports multiple high-demand applications such as ultra-HD 4K/8K video streaming and gaming at the same time. The Archer AX6000 is designed to speed up your connection and serve more devices simultaneously. The AX6000 enables you to make full use of 1Gbps internet service with a 2.5Gbps WAN port. Additionally, the Archer AX6000 intelligently ignores signal interference from your neighbor's wireless router to ensure smooth and stable performance.
The budget-friendly AX 1800 is ideal for users who want the speed and performance of Wi-Fi 6 at an entry level cost. For those who want to experience the newest AX technology at the best price, TP-Link also offers the Archer AX1500 WiFi router with slightly lower speeds.
Also making waves is the AX1800 WiFi Range Extender RE705X, TP-Link’s first AX WiFi range extender to the market. Featuring both 5GHz and 2.4GHz bands, the AX1800 is a choice for families who want Wi-Fi 6 features at an affordable price.
