4. Wireless Speed and Range
The CENTRIA delivers speeds up to 450 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band and 450 Mbps in the 5 GHz band. Six
highly sensitive internal antennas are connected to the highest-power radio amplifiers allowed by
regulations: transmit power of +28.5 dBm in both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands (+27 dBM at 5 GHz in
Europe) and receive sensitivity of -99 dBm at 1 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band and -96 dBm at 6 Mbps in the
5 GHz band.
To test this informally, start with your current router before setting up the CENTRIA. Go to remote
corners of your test area with a laptop, smartphone or tablet and look for areas of low signal strength.
