Edimax Technology’s USB 3.0 dual-band 802.11ac wireless adapter, the first of its kind in the world

 Edimax Technology’s USB 3.0 dual-band 802.11ac wireless adapter, the first of its kind in the world, was the recipient of a glowing endorsement and an “Editor’s Choice” distinction from popular computer hardware and software reviewer PCMag.com.

 

Described as an “impressive adapter” with “blazing throughput”, PCMag.com credited the EW-7822UAC with an “excellent” score of 4.5 out of 5. An easy setup process, high-performance design and super-high speeds in a “harsh testing environment” were all the subject of praise for the industry-leading product which sets a new global standard for Wi-Fi adapters. The first 802.11ac Wi-Fi adapter to feature USB 3.0 connectivity and realize the true, lightning-speed potential of 802.11ac, the adapter “registered the highest throughput tested in our lab among consumer wireless devices”.

 

“Killer Speeds”

Approximately 10 times faster than the current USB 2.0 standard which specifies a maximum speed of 480Mbps and severely restricts 802.11ac data rates, USB 3.0 is the future of connectivity and the dual-band Edimax EW-7822UAC is currently the only Wi-Fi available adapter to offer both USB 3.0 and 802.11ac connectivity. The result, according to PCMag.com is “absolutely amazing speed” and the conclusion that there is quite simply no other wireless adapter which can compete with the EW-7822UAC: “Not until I tested the Edimax adapter did I see the speed gains touted by 802.11ac technology.” The adapter is also described as “powerful” when “paired with the Edimax AC1200 Wireless Concurrent Dual-Band Router”- for the full review, visit PCMag.com or click the link here:http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2417341,00.asp
