Southampton, NY | 802.11N product development With the new 802.11-2012 standard, wireless networking can use the 3GHz band and 600mbps of throughput compared to the recently new but now old 450mbps of throughput.
That being stated, with 802.11AC frenzy going on right now, are tri-band (compared to dual-band 2.4 & 5GHZ) products going to ever be developed, or has the market already moved on? |

| Wow, I had forgotten about the 3650-3700MHz band. I doubt any triband units are going to be released soon. The 5GHz band has lots to offer and 4X4 in 2.4GHz or 5GHz is not completely developed. Plus who would the clients be? I think you will see the 3650-3700MHz band used for mesh backhaul in enterprise mesh networks before consumer grade WiFi routers exist in those frequencies. |

Damn. I was really hoping it there would be products soon, because 5GHz's range is so ridiculously short It doesn't work well for me, and 2.4GHz frequency is starting to fill up. Just in the past 8 months 2 more networks are popping up on my computer. It makes me think that the 3Ghz range is that sweet spot between channel bandwidth and range. |
