    ATHENA HIGH POWER RTA2600 AC2600 WIFI ROUTER WITH MU-MIMO facing forward on a gray countertop

    Amped Wireless Athena High Power AC2600 Router (Model# RTA2600-CA)

    A High-Power, Ultra-Fast Wi-Fi Router with Ultimate Coverage

    The RTA2600-CA complies with 802.11ac and delivers a 2.53Gbps wireless rate—800Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 1,733Mbps on the 5GHz band—for smooth, lag-free experiences in bandwidth-intensive applications. 16 high-power amplifiers and four high-gain antennas enable exceptional signal strength and ample coverage, while MU-MIMO technology allows multiple devices to receive data at the same time—no more need to wait in turn. Use the two on-board USB ports (one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0) to easily share files in your USB thumb drives or external HDDs. A 1.4GHz Qualcomm dual-core processor is fast enough to handle transmission to and reception from multiple devices as well as high-speed USB file sharing between connected computers.

    Simple Setup

    The Basic Setup Wizard walks you through the simple setup process and automatically configures the settings of your Internet provider. Taking only minutes, your new High Power Wi-Fi network will be up and running in no time.

    1 Range specifications are based on performance test results. Actual performance may vary due to differences in operating environments, building materials and wireless obstructions. Performance may increase or decrease over the stated specification. Wireless coverage claims are used only as a reference and are not guaranteed as each wireless network is uniquely different. Maximum wireless signal rate derived from IEEE 802.11 standard specifications. Actual data throughput may vary as a result of network conditions and environmental factors. Output power specifications are based on the maximum possible radio output power plus antenna gain. May not work with non-standard Wi-Fi devices such as those with proprietary software or drivers. Supports all Wi-Fi standards that are compatible or backwards compatible with 802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wi-Fi standards.

    2 For MU-MIMO to work, additional MU-MIMO capable devices must be connected to the network. To achieve the "up to 3X" data rate increase, three or more 1x1 MU-MIMO devices are needed with optimal network environment conditions.

    3 All transmission rates listed, for example 800Mbps for 2.4GHz and 1733Mbps for 5GHz, are the physical data rates. Actual data throughput will be lower and may depend on external factors as well as the combination of devices connected to the router. AC2600 wireless speeds are achieved when connecting to other AC2600 capable devices.
