4.1 Atụmatụ Wi-Fi 7

The Archer BE670 leverages Wi-Fi 7 technology to provide enhanced speed, capacity, and reliability.

Tri-Band Wi-Fi Performance

The router operates on three distinct bands: 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz, offering a combined theoretical speed of up to 12 Gbps. This allows for dedicated high-speed connections for various devices and applications.

• 6 GHz band: Up to 5765 Mbps, ideal for Wi-Fi 7 compatible devices requiring the highest speeds and lowest latency.
• 5 GHz band: Up to 5765 Mbps, suitable for high-bandwidth activities like 4K/8K streaming and online gaming.
• 2.4 GHz band: Up to 688 Mbps, providing broad coverage and compatibility for older devices and smart home gadgets.

This diagram details the maximum theoretical speeds for each Wi-Fi band: 5765 Mbps on 6 GHz, 5765 Mbps on 5 GHz, and 688 Mbps on 2.4 GHz, totaling 12 Gbps. It also shows use cases like 4K/8K streaming, video conferencing, low-latency gaming, and VR/AR/XR experiences.

Ọrụ Multi-Link Operation (MLO)

MLO allows Wi-Fi 7 devices to simultaneously send and receive data across different frequency bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, and 6 GHz). This aggregation of bands results in increased throughput, reduced latency, and improved reliability, especially for real-time applications.

This diagram illustrates Multi-Link Operation (MLO), a Wi-Fi 7 feature that allows devices to transmit data over multiple Wi-Fi bands (2.4 GHz, 5 GHz, 6 GHz) concurrently, ensuring more stable and faster connections, especially for demanding applications like video conferencing and streaming.

Ọwa 320 MHz

Wi-Fi 7 introduces wider 320 MHz channels on the 6 GHz band, effectively doubling the bandwidth compared to 160 MHz channels found in Wi-Fi 6E. This provides significantly higher data rates for compatible devices, enhancing performance for bandwidth-intensive tasks.

This graphic explains the benefit of 320 MHz ultra-wide channels available in Wi-Fi 7 (on the 6 GHz band), which doubles the throughput compared to 160 MHz channels in Wi-Fi 6E, providing higher bandwidth for data-intensive tasks.

4K-QAM Technology

4K-QAM (4096-QAM) allows each symbol to carry 12 bits of data, a 20% increase over the 10 bits carried by 1024-QAM in Wi-Fi 6E. This higher data density translates to faster data transmission and quicker downloads for compatible devices.

This image demonstrates 4K-QAM (4096-QAM) technology in Wi-Fi 7, which allows for 20% more data transmission per symbol compared to 1024-QAM in Wi-Fi 6E, resulting in faster data delivery for downloads and updates.

Multi-RU Technology

Multi-RU (Resource Unit) technology improves spectrum utilization by allowing a single user to transmit data on multiple resource units simultaneously. This optimizes efficiency and reduces latency, especially in congested network environments with many devices.

This graphic illustrates Multi-RU (Resource Unit) technology, a Wi-Fi 7 feature that allows for more flexible and efficient allocation of spectrum resources, ensuring smoother performance in environments with many connected devices.

4.2 Njikọ netwọkụ

Multi-Gigabit Ports

The Archer BE670 is equipped with multiple high-speed Ethernet ports to support various wired connections and multi-gigabit internet plans:

• 1 x 10 Gbps WAN/LAN Port
• 1 x 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN Port
• 3 x 1 Gbps LAN Ports

These ports ensure that your wired devices can take full advantage of high-speed internet and local network transfers.

This image shows the router's rear panel, emphasizing the 10 Gbps WAN/LAN port, a 2.5 Gbps WAN/LAN port, and three 1 Gbps LAN ports, designed to support multi-gigabit internet plans and high-speed wired connections.

Mkpuchi Wi-Fi

The router features 6 high-gain antennas and beamforming technology to extend Wi-Fi signals and provide coverage up to 3,000 sq. ft. This helps ensure a strong and stable connection for up to 128 devices throughout your home, even in areas that are typically hard to reach.

This image demonstrates how the router's six high-performance antennas, combined with beamforming technology, focus Wi-Fi signals to provide coverage up to 3,000 sq. ft., reaching devices even in hard-to-reach areas of your home.
