TP-Link has just announced the ‘Talon’ as “the ultimate Wi-Fi Router for users who demand the fastest possible networking speeds”

The Talon AD7200 from TP-Link is now available for all you power-hungry networkers.

The Talon boasts being the world’s first multi-band router powered by the latest 802.11ad and 11ac MU-MIMO solutions. The TP-Link AD7200 delivers ultra-fast speeds of up to 4.6Gbps on 60GHz band.

A Talon for speed

In typical daily usage trials all that tech stuff translates to wireless transfer speeds of up to 4,600Mbps. This is nearly three times the previous maximum transfer speed of 1,733Mbps that was capable on the 5GHz band used by 802.11ac routers.

You will be able to stream 4K video from the cloud over a smart home or workspace Wi-Fi network without any issue.

This need for speed will also be music to the ears of households with a large number of smartphones, tablets, laptops and connected smart devices. The AD7200 should offer up enough bandwidth to easily take care of that.

Streaming bandwidth

The new TP-Link router will enable you to download a feature-length 4K HD video in around four minutes or transfer 1000 photos to a storage device in approximately five seconds, without any concerns about network interference.

No more bottlenecks when multiple devices are connected, thanks to the Talon AD7200’s MU-MIMO technology. This means that users can work, stream HD entertainment and play the latest PC or console games with no drop-offs in connectivity or performance.

Plus, the Talon AD7200 features a unique eight antenna design, with high-powered amplifiers and Dynamic Beamforming Technology to supercharge the Wi-Fi signal.

Nelson Qiao, country manager at TP-Link UK, says:

TP-Link is committed to providing the most advanced connectivity to homes. With ultra-high speeds and increased network capacity, the Talon AD7200 Multi-band Wi-Fi Router will power the UK’s most bandwidth demanding households with ease.”
