RBR50_Lifestyle_Livingroom “The connected home has become more data hungry than ever, and video consumption is the primary driver,” says Brett Sappington, senior director of research, Parks Associates. “Consumers are streaming video to every available screen from an increasing number of OTT video service options. In the U.S. market, the average broadband household has over seven connected CE devices that can stream video. In addition, emerging smart home devices require always-on connectivity to function properly. Consumers have come to expect ubiquitous, high-speed connections throughout the home and rely on Wi-Fi for the in-home connectivity and bandwidth that they need.”

The NETGEAR Nighthawk X6 AC3200 Router delivers more high-speed WiFi connections to more devices through its breakthrough Tri-Band WiFi technology that connects automatically and simultaneously to every WiFi-enabled device in the home. Nighthawk X6 also offers a 1GHz dual core processor that supports combined WiFi speeds up to an incredibly fast 3.2Gbps*, three WiFi bands (one 2.4GHz and two 5GHz), six high-performance antennas, Smart Connect intelligence, and Dynamic Quality of Service (QoS). This powerful combination of features ensures that every device is assigned to the WiFi band where it can connect at its maximum possible speed. The result is that faster devices can connect and perform unhindered by slower or older WiFi devices—meaning ALL devices can download, stream, and game at their maximum speed. Laptops, tablets, phones, TVs, game consoles, smart home devices, and IP security cameras become X6-accelerated so consumers can roam freely and enjoy strong WiFi coverage and performance anywhere in the home.

“We are pleased to offer our latest modem, the DM200, which is designed to deliver superior broadband xDSL performance,” said David Henry, senior vice president of home consumer products for NETGEAR. “As the market demands new tools for connectivity, NETGEAR continues to drive technology leadership in delivering quality products to enable people and business to communicate and connect to information, data, and entertainment.”

The NETGEAR portfolio of 10-Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switches is a cost-effective way to provide 10GbE connections to 10GbE-capable servers and NAS (Network Attached Storage) systems. The switches can be used at the center of a small business network or as an access switch in a larger organization including workgroup access, connecting to a 10-Gigabit NETGEAR ProSAFE Fully Managed Switch on one end and extending the 10GbE connections to the edge.

2) The ProSAFE M4300 Managed Intelligent Edge Series is the world's first stackable platform with edge-to-core 10Gigabit stacking from 24-port 1G to 48-port 10G, including PoE+ full provisioning. Competing solutions for the SMB typically do not offer simple stacking using 10G ports, and require costly proprietary stacking kits.

Business Central 2.0 represents the final stage in the rollout of the industry’s most flexible management solution for WiFi access points. Quad-Mode Management — Standalone, Ensemble, Controller, or Cloud-Managed Mode — is a capability unique to NETGEAR that enables organizations to manage existing ProSAFE 802.11ac Access Points or new installations from any one of the four options, and to easily change modes as their needs change. NETGEAR includes 24/7 Lifetime Phone Support with an active Business Central license in addition to the Lifetime Hardware Warranty on ProSAFE products.
