TRENDnet, a best-in-class wired and wireless networking hardware brand, today from CES demonstrates the first to market 450Mbps Concurrent Dual Band Wireless N Router, model TEW-692GR.

This is the first router to offer full 450 Mbps technology on both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless bands. Concurrent dual band technology sustains both 2.4GHz and 5GHz wireless networks at the same time. Advanced Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna technology with three spatial streams per antenna, generates a maximum theoretical wireless throughput of 450 Mbps and exceptional wireless coverage.Gigabit Ethernet ports maintain high performance wired connections. Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) integrates other WPS supported wireless adapters at the touch of a button. Gone are the days of entering complicated encryption codes; simply press the WPS button on the TEW-692GR, and then press the WPS button on a compatible wireless adapter-the devices automatically exchange information and connect. WMM technology further prioritizes video and audio packets.

"A true 450Mbps concurrent router will provide networking enthusiast with another great option," stated Sonny Su, Technology Director for TRENDnet. "With the proliferation of so many wireless networked devices, performance matters more than ever before."

The 450Mbps Concurrent Dual Band Wireless N Router, model TEW-692GR, comes with a three year limited warranty and will be available from TRENDnet's online and retail partners this coming April.

The MSRP for the TEW-692GR is U.S. $ 249.99.
