Meet the Zyxel Networks’ WiFi Family

Written by Team Zyxel | 7/16/21 7:45 PM

We do not only experience traffic on the freeway, but in the airwaves as well. WiFi 6 stands out in crowded zones where airwaves are congested. With the next generation of WiFi 6, users will experience less bandwidth congestion and increase network capacity. As a result, users will also benefit from connections with extremely low latency. WiFi 6 technology offers lightning-fast throughputs, faster than 11AC (WiFi 5).

We break Zyxel Networks' products into two categories:

Flexibility and Ultimate
