Netgear has debuted the Orbi Tri-Band WiFi Cable Modem Router System which combines a mesh WiFi system with a cable modem.
With the 2-in-1 Orbi Tri-Band WiFi Cable Modem System replacing your existing cable modem and router, you will step up to an experience of ultra-fast mesh WiFi coverage for homes up to 4,000 square feet. For larger properties, adding Orbi Satellites to your system will expand coverage by an additional 2,000 square feet per satellite.
The Orbi Tri-Band WiFi Cable Modem System will work out of the box with Xfinity from Comcast XFINITY, Spectrum, Cox and others. Netgear expects the new modem router to pay for itself with the money you save by eliminating equipment leasing fees.
“We’re excited to be the first retail offering to combine the benefits of Orbi whole-home WiFi mesh networking with an embedded cable modem in a single, space-saving device,” said David Henry, senior vice president of Connected Home Products for NETGEAR. “With the Orbi Tri-Band WiFi Cable Modem System, you’ll benefit from incredibly fast cable downloads and blazing-fast WiFi for an uninterrupted data flow to more connected devices, everywhere in your home, plus tons of great Orbi features like voice commands and smart parental controls, which will be added to the offering soon.”

Key Features and Benefits
The Orbi Tri-Band WiFi Cable Modem System combines performance with style in a sleek, modern design. The four high-gain internal antennas in each Orbi router and satellite increase wireless range in hard-to-reach areas of your home. This new Orbi offers a stellar combination of a cable modem ready to deliver super-fast cable download speeds with all the benefits you expect from a full-featured Tri-Band WiFi Mesh system from NETGEAR.
● The new Orbi integrates a DOCSIS 3.0 CableLabs-certified cable modem with 32x8 channel bonding. It simultaneously supports 32 downstream bonded channels for maximum performance and download speeds up to 1.4Gbps*. This provides uninterrupted connections for smooth streaming of HD videos, movies and music, more responsive online gaming, and faster file downloads — even during the most congested traffic hours on your cable Internet provider’s network.
● The Orbi router delivers high-performance WiFi up to 2.2Gbps** for the devices connecting over WiFi on your home network, with MU-MIMO and a powerful quad-core processor for better 4K HD video streaming, VR gaming, web surfing, and more. Its Smart Connect Technology-intelligently chooses the best WiFi band for your devices to avoid interference and optimize network performance, while Beamforming+ improves speed and range for both 2.4 and 5GHz devices. You’ll enjoy Orbi features like guest WiFi network and four (4) Gigabit Ethernet LAN ports for connecting wired devices for even faster file transfers and reliable connections.
