ARRIS today announced a new addition to its industry-leading gigabit whole-home mesh portfolio: The SURFboard mAX® AX6600 Mesh Wi-Fi® 6 system. The all-new system provides a new performance benchmark for the SURFboard® gigabit #wifi portfolio and fits seamlessly into any home décor and style.
SURFboard mAX (AX6600) complements the flagship SURFboard mAX Pro Mesh #wifi 6 System (AX11000) and SURFboard mAX Plus Mesh #wifi 6 system (AX7800), offering consumers a range of options for achieving whole-home coverage with the latest #wifi 6 technology.
The SURFboard mAX system features an advanced tri-band Wi-Fi 6 mesh design with two routers, each delivering 6.6 Gbps speeds and providing a total coverage area of up to 5,500 sq. ft. Its third band, with 4x4 #wifi 6, provides a dedicated backhaul to ensure the fastest service speeds across the entire home. 1
“SURFboard mAX represents the whole-home coverage and gigabit speeds that consumers expect from our flagship #wifi portfolio in a new performance tier designed to meet the needs of an even greater range of consumers,” said Evan Groat, senior vice president, Home Networks Retail Products Group at CommScope (recently acquired ARRIS). “Now, people upgrading their home network have a new, powerful and stylish option to support their ultra-high-definition 4K content, high-performance gaming, and connected lifestyle for years to come.”
The SURFboard mAX AX6600’s advanced software makes it simple and convenient to manage the system’s powerful technology. Using Alexa, consumers can manage their SURFboard mAX system’s guest #wifi, pause and unpause #wifi access, and schedule specific #wifi access times. With Alexa’s #wifi Access feature, consumers can simply say: “Alexa, pause the #wifi for 30 minutes” or “Alexa, turn off the #wifi for Sarah” from compatible Alexa-enabled devices for easy voice control.
The SURFboard mAX system will be available for display in a private suite at CES, Jan. 7-10, 2020 in Las Vegas, alongside the SURFboard mAX Pro and SURFboard mAX Plus.
