Beamforming Wi-Fi

Beamforming generates directional-targeted Wi-Fi signals, instead of standard Wi-Fi which radiates outwards. Paired with any beamforming router, the EW-7822UTC’s beamforming support enables your Wi-Fi signal to be targeted at your adapter for a stronger, more reliable and efficient Wi-Fi connection. This means better audio quality and HD video streaming as you explore your digital wonderland.
