HICKORY, NC — ARRIS announced the availability of two groundbreaking Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) mesh systems. The ARRIS SURFboard mAX Gigabit Wi-Fi Pro and Plus systems are the first true tri-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh systems, and will be available at major retailers and SURFboard.com this month.
ARRIS built both systems around the newest Wi-Fi 6 standard featuring the latest wireless and modulation technologies including OFDMA and High Order Modulation. Wi-Fi 6 enables multi-Gigabit speeds across a growing range of connected devices to accelerate everything that consumers do online today—from video streaming, to smart home automation, to gaming and downloads. Wi-Fi 6 also unlocks a new set of future services and experiences—including 8K, augmented reality, advanced smart cloud services, and more.
Tri-Band Routers and Mesh Technology
More importantly, ARRIS SURFboard mAX Gigabit Wi-Fi systems are the only devices on the market to use Wi-Fi 6 on each of three separate bands with high-end 4x4 antennas and mesh technology.
SURFboard mAX Pro delivers speeds of up to 11 Gbps and mAX Plus delivers speeds of up to 7.8 Gbps, ensuring consumers get the most out of their internet connection — today, and far into the future. Both are available as a system and as a standalone router. The standalone router offers up to 3,000 sq. ft. of coverage, while the system provides seamless Gigabit Wi-Fi for homes up to 6,000 sq. ft.
