TP-Link® Next-Gen Routers with Multi-User MIMO and 4-Stream Technology Available Now

SAN DIMAS, Calif. -- Oct.7,2015-- TP-Link®, a leading global provider of consumer and business networking products, today announced the availability of Archer C2600, a next-generation router featuring wireless AC, multi-user MIMO, and 4-Stream technology that optimizes Wi-Fi speeds for multiple devices on the network. Archer C2600 routers are designed to meet the intensive networking demands of today’s homes and are the perfect choice for supporting a large number of high-performance wireless devices simultaneously, including mobile devices, PCs, smart TVs, and gaming consoles.

Archer C2600 routers leverage 4-Stream technology to boost its Wi-Fi capability, enabling its 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands to reach max speeds of 800Mbps and 1733Mbs respectively, unleashing the full potential of high-performance devices for seamless 4K HD streaming and online gaming. In addition, a powerful 1.4GHz dual-core processor allows a large number of users to surf, stream, and game at the same time without slowing down the Archer C2600 router’s entire network.

“The Archer C2600 is an extremely powerful router with an elegant, streamlined design,” said Lewis Wu, executive vice president of TP-Link USA. “Coupled with multi-user MIMO and 4-Stream technology, the Archer C2600 is designed to handle the increasing bandwidth demands of today’s modern homes that are filled with multiple users’ different devices that are all accessing the network simultaneously.”

Archer C2600 routers provide faster, more efficient Wi-Fi connectivity for the growing number of smart devices on a network. Four high-performance external antennas and high-powered amplifiers help Archer C2600 routers maximize coverage area and stability within the home, while beamforming technology further improves the Wi-Fi coverage by helping it locate wireless devices to form stronger, more reliable connections, even when mobile devices move from room to room.

Perfect for the modern home, Archer C2600 routers feature an elegant design that blends well with any décor. The routers also offers a guest network, providing visitors with Wi-Fi access separate from the main network, and parental controls, which enable users to manage when and how connected devices can access the Internet. Archer C2600 routers are backwards-compatible, allowing them to work with older wireless protocols such as 802.11 b/g/n.

Archer C2600 Key Features:

• AC2600 class performance with 4-Stream technology to optimize Gigabit Wi-Fi with up to 1733Mbps on 5GHz and 800Mbps on 2.4GHz
• 11AC wave 2 with MU-MIMO significantly improves data processing speed
• Powerful 1.4GHz dual-core processor to support simultaneous users
• 2x USB 3.0 sharing ports to easily share photos, files, music and videos with family and friends across the network at speeds up to 10x faster than USB 2.0
