Abstract

Wireless LANs (WLANs) have become the primary communications infrastructure for many homes and organizations. For smartphones and tablets it is typically the only supported communication method. For instance, MacBook Air is a WLAN-only system that no longer comes equipped with wired Ethernet.

Araknis Networks commissioned Tolly to benchmark the performance of its dual-band (2.4GHz+5GHz) AN-300-AP-I-N WLAN Access Point (AP) against comparable dual-band units from Luxul, Pakedge & Ubiquiti Networks at various distances.

The Araknis Networks AN-300-AP-I-N delivered the highest throughput at 20 and 50 feet from the AP.
