Product Description

The Netgear CBK40-100NAS, part of the Orbi Whole Home system, is a high-performance mesh Wi-Fi solution engineered to eliminate Wi-Fi dead zones and provide robust internet connectivity across large living spaces. This system typically includes a router and one or more satellites that work together to create a single, seamless Wi-Fi network. Users can roam freely throughout their home without experiencing dropped connections or performance degradation, as the system intelligently manages device connections to the strongest available signal. This Orbi system supports Wi-Fi 5 (802.11ac) technology, delivering combined wireless speeds of up to 2.2 Gbps across its dual bands (2.4GHz and 5GHz). A key feature of the Orbi system is its dedicated backhaul, which uses a separate wireless channel (often on the 5GHz band) to communicate between the router and satellites. This dedicated backhaul ensures that the Wi-Fi performance for connected devices remains high, as it doesn't compete with the wireless traffic from client devices. With a total of six Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports distributed across the router and satellite units, the CBK40-100NAS provides ample connectivity options for wired devices such as desktop computers, gaming consoles, smart TVs, and network-attached storage (NAS). The system is designed for easy setup and management, often through the Netgear Orbi mobile app, allowing users to configure network settings, monitor connected devices, and manage parental controls with ease. This makes it an ideal solution for modern households with numerous connected devices and demanding internet usage.
