Netgear AX6000 Nighthawk AX8 8 Stream Wi Fi 6 Router RAX80 100EUS

The NETGEAR Nighthawk 8 Stream AX6000 WiFi Router RAX80 supports the new 802.11ax also known as Wi Fi 6 WiFi standard. Engineered to deliver up to 4 times more data capacity than previous standards, AX WiFi features advanced technologies like OFDMA, MU MIMO, 160MHz channel support and 1024 QAM to vastly improve network efficiency. The Nighthawk AX8 is powered by a 64 bit 1.8GHz quad core processor designed to transfer gigabits of data with almost zero CPU load. 160MHz channel support doubles the speed offered by 80MHz channels to provide gigabit speed to compatible devices. This router is the industry s first home router with Multi Gig internet support, achieved by aggregating 2 gigabit Ethernet ports. It s a router that s ready for the Multi Gig Internet wave coming in DOCSIS 3.1.

8 Stream WiFi Network Efficiency and Faster Speeds

8 WiFi streams 4 in the 2.4GHz band and 4 in the 5GHz band offer 4 times the device capacity as compared to typical 2x2 AC WiFi. More WiFi streams per band greatly increases the amount of data the router sends to and receives from devices because more bandwidth is available and there is less congestion for all the devices on the network. With reliable connections to all connected devices, now more devices than ever before can simultaneously be on your network.

Gigabit WiFi to Mobile Devices

Ideal for gigabit WiFi, Nighthawk AX8 is 1 of the first routers to support WAN port aggregation, which allows for combining 2 gigabit Ethernet ports and deliver more than 1 gigabit of Internet speed to your home. Pair with compatible NETGEAR cable modems supporting Multi Gig internet speeds. Support for 160MHz enabled mobile devices and laptops Intel Gigabit Wi Fi enabled devices allows the AX8 to stream at gigabit speeds to these devices. Stream your favorite TV shows and movies in high definition, to more devices.

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. Nighthawk AX8 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 Performance at the Core

Nighthawk AX8 is powered by a 64 bit 1.8GHz quad core processor designed to transfer gigabits of data with almost zero CPU load. Robust processing power provides the best performance across all wired and wireless interfaces. An additional quad core co processor handles all Multi Gig LAN WAN traffic, ensuring the main processor is available for all other applications. High speed simultaneous connections ensure you enjoy smoother ultra HD 4K video streaming and gaming without interruptions.

Cutting Edge Design

This next generation router design conceals 4 high performance antennas under its 'wings'. The antennas are optimally positioned for best WiFi performance, extending reliable and stronger WiFi coverage indoors and outdoors. The Nighthawk AX8 router is also wall mountable.
