D-Link ANZ has launched its next generation Covr Seamless Wi-Fi System (COVR-C1203) to the local market. The Covr Wi-Fi System is an elegant, intelligent solution that provides an MU-MIMO wireless mesh network for ultra-fast speeds and seamless coverage to the furthest reaches of any home. Featuring a class-leading design to enable it to blend into any decor, Covr offers Smart Roaming for seamless connections, as well as Smart Steering to guide devices to the optimum wireless band.
D-Link ANZ MD Graeme Reardon said, “If you want seamless Wi-Fi all around your home, then look no further than Covr. Easy to install, yet brimming with smarts inside, this clever solution gives users a Multi-User MIMO (MU-MIMO) mesh networking solution, making streaming on multiple devices all around the home a breeze.”
The Covr Seamless Wi-Fi System (COVR-C1203) blankets your home with MU-MIMO Wireless AC speeds of up to 1200 Mbps with its 2×3 internal antenna configuration for maximised range and connectivity. Delivering seamless coverage for up to 465 square metres via its pre-paired three Covr points as well as two onboard Gigabit Ethernet ports per unit for wired connectivity where needed, the COVR-C1203 is fast enough to support multiple devices undertaking data-intensive tasks like simultaneous gaming and HD streaming.
Thanks to revolutionary Smart Roaming technology, the Covr Seamless Wi-Fi System continually scans the wireless signal strength to your devices, automatically connecting them to the strongest signal available. The Covr Seamless Wi-Fi System allows you to walk from room to room without experiencing video buffering whilst watching HD movies from your favourite streaming channels. Covr also ensures your entire home is covered by a single Wi-Fi network using a single network name (SSID), making interrupted connections, dropouts and dead spots a thing of the past.
As Reardon mentions, ease of setup is a key highlight of the Covr system with the three included Covr Points pre-paired to work straight out of the box, so you can simply plug them into your existing modem to get started, and enjoy high-quality, seamless Wi-Fi across your home. You can configure your network quickly and easily with the free D-Link Wi-Fi app on your Android or iOS mobile device, or by using the intuitive and award-winning D-Link web-based interface. Connecting wireless devices to your Covr network is also simple, thanks to the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) button, which establishes an instant connection to new devices without the need to enter new settings or passwords every time.
Covr’s built-in MU-MIMO functionality sends data to multiple devices simultaneously to increase speed and efficiency across your home Wi-Fi network, whilst its Smart Steering will automatically connect devices to the optimal 2.4Ghz or 5GHz Wi-Fi band and even move devices between Wi-Fi bands when the network experiences congestion. All of this happens automatically, seamlessly and without dropouts, lag or any interruption to your wireless connection.
