FEATURES

802.11ac. The new definition of fast.

With three-stream 802.11ac technology, the AirPort Extreme Base Station takes Wi-Fi speeds over the top. Now you can reach data rates of up to 1.3 Gbps1 — triple the previous 802.11n standard. Which means up to three times faster Wi-Fi.2 You also get double the channel bandwidth, with 80MHz-wide channels providing more room for more data to flow faster than ever. And if you have 802.11a/b/g/n devices, AirPort Extreme maximises that connection as well. What you do with all that extra speed is up to you.

Simultaneous dual-band support.

AirPort Extreme features simultaneous dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi. That means it transmits at both the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequencies at the same time. So no matter which band your wireless devices use, they’ll automatically connect to the best available band for the fastest possible performance.

Beamforming puts the focus on your device.

With 802.11ac technology comes the intelligent, powerful beamforming antenna array. Most base station antennas emit an equal and constant Wi-Fi signal in all directions. But the beamforming antenna array is smarter — it knows where an 802.11ac device is on the network. Then AirPort Extreme targets its signal to that device. So your Wi-Fi signal is stronger, clearer and faster.

A top-down approach to design.

For the all-new design of AirPort Extreme, we took an approach that centred on performance. We made it taller and put the antennas at the top, creating a higher platform for dispersing the signal. We also increased the number of antennas. There are now six of them — three for the 2.4GHz band and three for the 5GHz band. Together with 802.11ac wireless technology, they let you connect faster, farther, and with more power than ever before. The bar for Wi-Fi base stations has been raised. In every way.

Smaller footprint. More desk space.

The new vertical design not only improves Wi-Fi performance, it also saves you valuable desk space. At less than 10 centimetres square, the footprint of AirPort Extreme is 64 per cent smaller than its predecessor. And to keep everything tidy, even the power supply is built in. Which means AirPort Extreme takes up no more space than it should.

Pocket-sized power

Big power to fully charge your device. Small size to fit in your pocket or bag.

Goes anywhere you go

Small enough to pop in your pocket. Comes in four colours, with a micro-USB cable for charging.

Power up quick

Charge your device fast, with an LED to tell you when it's ready. The charger holds power for over three months.

Works with lots of devices

Recharges all devices with a micro-USB connector, and charges itself using any USB power supply.
