NETGEAR Introduces New Addition To Industry-Leading WiFi 7 Home Networking Product Lineup
NETGEAR®, Inc., the leading provider of
innovative and secure solutions for people to connect and manage their digital
lives, today expanded its WiFi 7 standalone router line with the new Nighthawk RS300
Router. NETGEAR's most affordable WiFi 7 product to
date build on the company's promise to provide powerful WiFi performance and
secure connectivity.
WiFi 7 Changes the Game
WiFi 7 unlocks 2.4 times faster speeds than WiFi 6, delivers
low latency and better handles WiFi interference for families to seamlessly
enjoy next gen 4K/8K streaming, video conferencing, gaming, and more. Since the
launch of NETGEAR's first WiFi 7 offerings - Nighthawk RS700 and Orbi 970 -
multi-gig internet speeds have become more affordable, work from home demands
have remained steady, and more devices such as AR/VR headsets or AI-focused
platforms like CoPilot+ have been introduced that require extreme low latency
and higher throughput.
While WiFi 7 adoption is growing and new generations of
smartphones, laptops, and other devices are hitting the market at a rapid pace,
IoT threats are increasing and router security at the device level is critical
to keep digital lives and homes protected.
"NETGEAR's singular focus has always been to create and
provide industry-leading solutions with powerful performance and secure WiFi
connectivity," said David Henry, president and GM of Connected Home
Products and Services at NETGEAR. "Our newest WiFi 7 addition, Nighthawk
RS300, delivers these connectivity benefits to a wider audience, helping them
experience unprecedented speed and performance on their devices and
applications with the strongest possible security available today."
Powerful Performance, Incredible Value - Nighthawk RS300
The Nighthawk RS300 Tri-band router introduces blazing-fast
WiFi 7 for speeds up to 9.3Gbps[1] to budget-conscious but high-tech gadget users. Its
sleek new body and patented omni-directional internal antenna design improves
coverage and pushes signals to the farthest range, providing up to 2,500 square
feet of WiFi coverage across a max of 100 devices.
Everyone in the household can access the latest multi-gig
internet speeds with the 2.5 Gig internet port, and the additional 2.5Gig and
two 1Gig LAN ports can be used for fast wired connections for latency
intolerant devices such as a gaming PC or console.
Peace of Mind with Cutting-Edge Security
Home network devices see an average of 10 attacks on home
networks every 24 hours[2], making it critical to safeguard your digital life starting
at the router. Powered by state-of-the-art encryption protocols and advanced
threat detection mechanisms, NETGEAR routers stand as the first line of defense
against evolving cyber threats and include security features such as automatic
firmware updates, VPN support, cutting-edge WPA3 security, access control, and guest
WiFi network options.
For added protection, Nighthawk RS300 includes a 30-day trial
for NETGEAR Armor™ Powered by Bitdefender, providing an automatic shield of security for connected
devices and added privacy with VPN. Unlike traditional endpoint antivirus
products, Armor is built into the router as an all-in-one security solution,
protecting computers, security cameras, baby monitors and other IoT devices on
the network and eliminating the need for multiple security subscriptions or
software.
