Renewed Airport Extreme (6th Gen) + 3 Ethernet Cables

The vertical design of the AirPort Extreme Base Station not only improves Wi-Fi performance, but it also saves valuable desk space. Measuring less than 4 inches square, the footprint of the device is 64 percent smaller than its predecessor. Furthermore, the power supply is built-in, allowing for even more space-saving.

The sixth-generation AirPort Extreme Base Station features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi support, enabling it to transmit at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies concurrently. This means that regardless of which band your wireless devices use, they will automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.

Equipped with three-stream 802.11ac technology, the AirPort Extreme Base Station can reach data rates of up to 1.3Gbps, which is triple the 802.11n standard. Additionally, 802.11ac Wi-Fi provides double the channel bandwidth with 80MHz-wide channels, allowing for faster data flow.

The redesigned AirPort Extreme now stands taller, with antennas located at the top of the device and an increased number of antennas to six, three for 2.4GHz and three for 5GHz.

Getting your new Wi-Fi network up and running with the AirPort Extreme is a quick and easy process. This is due to the built-in setup assistant in both iOS and AirPort Utility for OS X. As soon as you plug in the AirPort Extreme and connect it to your DSL or cable modem, you can simply follow the straightforward instructions on your Mac or iOS device, and the setup assistant will handle the rest, eliminating the need for you to configure the network manually.

In summary, the AirPort Extreme Base Station's vertical design, simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi support, three-stream 802.11ac technology, and increased number of antennas all work together to deliver improved Wi-Fi performance while also saving valuable desk space. Additionally, the built-in setup assistant makes the process of getting your new Wi-Fi network up and running a breeze.
