1570 / 1590 Enhanced WiFi - Features and Capabilities
1570 / 1590 Gateways utilize cutting-edge 802.11ac Wave 2 technology, which introduces several major updates in Wi-Fi components. The most significant is a new feature called Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO), a radical new technology that supports higher density deployments by servicing multiple endpoint devices concurrently.
In addition, several channel bonding improvements enhance overall throughput by utilizing wider portions of the 5GHz band, as well as enabling more flexible use of the spectrum. Compared with 802.11ac Wave 1, 802.11ac Wave 2 provides higher user access capabilities, a more flexible bandwidth combination, and a higher throughput.
1570 / 1590 Gateways include enhanced 4X4 WiFi design.
Two external antennas (Main and Diversity) to allow the best RF signal and coverage.
Certified for PTCRB (#88237) and GCF (#9109 and #9156).
Cellular carriers certification in USA:
The following main carriers in the United States require a special certification process: Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile (Sprint).
Customers cannot use the networks above with the 1570 / 1590 until they are fully certified. Certification is on-going and will be published once done.
