What are MIMO Routers?
MIMO routers are the next big thing in wireless networking. They handily extend the range of Wi-Fi network base stations. As such, they are sure to be a hit with the Wi-Fi crowd for years to come. MIMO routers build on the MIMO technology, which stands for Multiple Input, Multiple Output. This relatively new set of technology protocols reinvents the way that signals are transmitted and received. MIMO routers send out multiple data streams at the same time and then use multiple antennas to sift through the signals for the requisite pattern. All this is done while maintaining a fast connection and, hence, a fast data stream. Actually, MIMO is a new verse of an old song. The technology has been pursued for years in the digital radio industry with varying success. Nowadays, it seems to be the standard, provided that both the transmitting and the receiving party have multiple antennas with which to send or receive the multiple streams of data. The same is true of MIMO routers, which replace
