Wireless network users demand two things: higher speeds and greater range. The AirPort Extreme Base Station delivers on both fronts and offers superfast wireless network access throughout just about any home, office, or classroom.1
Simultaneous dual-band support.
Some Wi-Fi devices use the 2.4GHz wireless band, including iPhone, iPod touch, and devices using 802.11b/g. Other devices can use either 2.4GHz or the higher-speed 5GHz band, such as the latest 802.11n-based Mac computers and Apple TV. Instead of choosing one of the bands, AirPort Extreme now operates simultaneously on both bands, and your multiband devices automatically use the best available band. This means all your Wi-Fi devices get the fastest possible wireless performance and the best possible range.
Blazing performance.
Based on an IEEE 802.11n draft specification, AirPort Extreme uses a technology called multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) to transmit multiple data streams simultaneously. The result? AirPort Extreme delivers data transfer speeds up to five times those of previous-generation 802.11g wireless networks while achieving up to twice the range.2
And with its support for both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless bands, AirPort Extreme reduces the possibility of interference from appliances and cordless phones that use the 2.4GHz band.
Imagine the possibilities.
Up to 50 people can all share the same Internet connection, exchange files using the file-sharing capability built into Mac OS X or Windows, access local and remote file servers, annihilate the competition in multiplayer games anything a typical network user can do, plus a number of things that are decidedly not typical, such as wireless storage and printing.3
Share the Internet securely withguestnetworking.
Now its easier than ever to allow guests to use your Internet connection without sharing your password or giving them access to the rest of your network. Simply enable the new guest networking feature using the AirPort Utility application and create a separate Wi-Fi network just for your friends. You can set up this guest network with a different password or with none at all. Your primary network including your printer, attached drives, or other devices remains secure.
Compatible with 802.11a/b/g.
All currently shipping Mac systems support the next-generation 802.11n technology in the AirPort Extreme Base Station. And AirPort Extreme is compatible with Mac computers, PCs, and wireless devices such as iPhone and iPod touch that use 802.11a, b, or g technologies. With AirPort Extreme you can also rest assured that it works with other certified 802.11n draft 2.0 products.
