Abstract

Busy home networks are now the rule rather than the exception with multiple clients demanding multiple high-bandwidth services - like video streaming - simultaneously. Multi-user MIMO (MU-MIMO) technology can deliver significantly more throughput to multiple users than the prior generation single-user MIMO (SU-MIMO). The Linksys EA7300 Max-Stream AC1750 MUMIMO Gigabit Router is a home entertainment Wi-Fi router optimized for online gaming and streaming.

Linksys, Inc. commissioned Tolly to benchmark the multi-client throughput of the Linksys EA7300 and compare that to the aggregate throughput of several competing dual-band, AC1750 wireless LAN (WLAN) solutions. The Linksys solution can deliver up to 3.5X the multi-client, aggregate throughput of competing solutions.
