Recent reports show that Xiaomi’s first
Wi-Fi 6 router with 7 antennas will go on sale today and it will be available
for 599 yuan (US$ 85). The Xiaomi router AX3600 is currently in stock and it is an
AIoT Router. WiFi 6 is the new generation of WiFi standards. Compared with the
previous generation, WiFi 5, the transmission rate, signal coverage, and data
delay are much better. When users connect multiple terminal devices, the WiFi 6 router can significantly reduce
the number of terminals and performs as though it is dealing with a single
equipment.
The Xiaomi’s first Wi-Fi 6 router comes
with 7 antennas. Six of these antennas are external high-performance signal
amplifiers (two 2.4Ghz antennas and four 5Ghz antennas) while the last antenna
is an AIoT exclusive independent antenna. Liu Xinyu, general manager of
Xiaomi’s intelligent hardware department, said that its signal can cover 2
football fields. This will simply eliminate the issue of “no-signal corners” in
the home.
In terms of specifications, Xiaomi AIoT
router AX3600 comes with Qualcomm’s 4-core 64-bit A53 CPU + 2-core network
acceleration engine. It also uses an enterprise-level professional chip
IPQ8071A. This chip (IPQ8071A) comes with a dual-core 1.7GHz network
acceleration engine (NPU). Its unique design is specific for handling network
traffic, allowing the CPU to focus on other upper-layer applications. The
entire system has higher operating efficiency, faster traffic forwarding, and
more stable work for a long time.
In addition, the Xiaomi AIoT router AX3600
uses a unique AIoT exclusive smart antenna. When you open the Mijia App, you
can automatically find Xiaomi smart devices around you. This means that you can
seamlessly add these devices to the network with one click. This saves users
the stress of always trying to pair every new smart device with the network.
Even if you get a new device today, the router will spot it from the Mijia app.
