ZenWiFi Voice is a dual-band AC1300 mesh network router that integrates Amazon Alexa technology, making it suitable as a centerpiece of any smart home. Supporting AiMesh technology makes it possible to use the device as a standalone router or as part of a larger mesh network with other AiMesh devices. It can also be used in Repeater mode to boost the signal of any wireless router. ZenWiFi Voice delivers a smooth connection for wireless devices, as well as providing access to Amazon’s Alexa. The built-in Amazon Alexa provides support from the smart assistant for streaming music, receiving weather updates, or even telling users a joke, all owing to the smooth connection of the ZenWiFi Voice.
ZenWiFi AX (XT8) includes two WiFi 6 routers in a ready-to-deploy mesh configuration for maximum coverage and performance. It achieves unprecedented throughput with WiFi 6 support for both clients and internode communications — up to 6,600 Mbps across one 2.4 GHz band and two 5 GHz bands. The two stylish ZenWiFi nodes shuttle data over a dedicated 4×4 WiFi 6 backhaul at speeds of up to 4,804 Mbps, while connected clients enjoy access to transfer rates with the potential to exceed the gigabit barrier.
A full complement of WiFi 6 features, including MU-MIMO and OFDMA, ensures that each WiFi 6-compatible device on the network gets its fair share of bandwidth, even in highly congested network environments like apartments, dorms and dense urban districts. A special antenna design, isolated internal layout and AiRadar 2.0 beamforming ensure that ZenWiFi AX delivers wide coverage and strong signals to each connected device. ZenWiFi AX also offers a unique feature that allows users to choose the name of their WiFi networks, so they may choose to have one overall name or differentiate each frequency band with different names.
The ZenWiFi AC (CT8) mesh WiFi system features a pair of AC3000 routers that deliver top performance with a data rate of up to 3000 Mbps and offers elegant aesthetics inspired by the ZenBook family to blend easily with any décor. Each router has a sleek enclosure that fits four vertically positioned and two diagonally positioned internal antennas. The result is a clean design, optimal antenna spacing and the best possible coverage radiating in all directions. ZenWiFi AC offers a simple three-step setup process and automatic syncing of configured settings across all nodes, making setting up a mesh network fast and easy.
