Device Overview
The Wi-Fi 6 Cable Gateway supports both MoCA 2.1 and DOCSIS
3.0/3.1 for broadband data transfer to an existing coaxial cable system.
With the channel bonding connectivity, the Gateway allows for the
aggregation of multiple downstream and upstream channels and brings
up to 5 Gbps for download speed and 1 Gbps for upload speed.
The Gateway is also compliant with the IEEE 802.11ax specification
while maintaining full backwards compatibility with the 802.11ac/a/b/
g/n standards. IEEE 802.11ax is the new addition of the IEEE 802.11
standards, running at dual-band of 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band types, as
well as co-existing with the 802.11ac/11n network. It delivers wide
bandwidth of up to 160 MHz, and reliable high data rates of up to 4.8 Gbps.
The Wi-Fi 6 Cable Gateway supports four wired gigabit LAN ports, one
F-type coax WAN port, one FXS RJ-11 port for telephony, and 802.11ax
dual-band wireless capabilities. It provides high speed transmission rate
for data/voice/video triple-play services. The Wi-Fi 6 Cable Gateway
delivers sufficient bandwidth to stream HD video, listen to digital music,
play online games, transfer large files, voice service, and surf the Internet
simultaneously.
