4 Antennas & Beamforming for Maximum Coverage MU-MIMO for 4× Faster Connections

Equipped with three external antennas and one internal antenna, Archer C2300 creates

stronger and more reliable networks for all to enjoy in your home. Beamforming

technology concentrates the Wi-Fi signal towards your connected devices, providing

better Wi-Fi range and network performance.

MU-MIMO technology serves multiple devices at once, reducing wait time,

increasing Wi-Fi throughput for every device, and making each stream more

ecient.

Maximum wireless signal rates are the physical rates derived from IEEE Standard 802.11 specications. Actual wireless data throughput and wireless coverage are not guaranteed and will vary as a result of network conditions, client limitations and environmental factors, including building materials, obstacles,

volume and density of trac and client location.

‡

Four or more 1×1 MU-MIMO client devices must be connected to achieve up to four times faster performance. Use of MU-MIMO requires clients to also support MU-MIMO.
