multigig mesh

[Bablin1901]

I was looking at multi gig mesh networks with wifi 6 and I found the orbi ax6000. However, I found the only multigig ports were wan are there any multigig mesh networks with a multigig wan and lan ports?

 

Thanks

Why do you need 10Gbit ethernet on a WiFi mesh setup? If you need that kind of wired performance, just get a 10Gbit switch and have it in front of the mesh units.

Probably not. 10 Gbps is kinda expensive. 2.5 and 5 Gbps are relatively new and that makes them expensive. Multi Gig is not really a consumer level thing. Your looking at Prosumer and Business grade appliances. Price will be high. I doubt WiFi 6 can do multi gig as well.

Very surprised they did a 2.5Gbps port. Not like any ISP will likely deliver those speeds. Plus the one I know that can won't do it thru Ethernet. Comcast can provide 2 Gbps Fiber, but it will only deliver 2 Gbps via SFP and not Ethernet. On top of all of that, many devices still only ship with 1 Gbps ports or even 100 Mbps ports. 2.5 Gbps networking is VERY NEW, to the point I think only a few switches support this standard and many of those are actually 10Gbps as well. 

 

What are you looking to do with multi gig?
