Product details

Powerline with gigabit speed and Wi-Fi 6. FRITZ!Powerline 1240 AX supports Wi-Fi 6 in the 2.4 GHz spectrum with up to 600 Mbps. With Powerline, data is distributed at up to 1,200 Mbps via the power grid. This provides PCs and televisions with a fast data line via the power supply and smartphones can surf reliably via Wi-Fi.

WLAN Mesh with FRITZ! FRITZ! Powerline 1240 AX uses WLAN Mesh to ensure that videos, music and photos in the home network reach every corner of every room seamlessly. The distributed FRITZ! devices work in a single network, exchange information with each other and optimise the performance of all WLAN devices. With Mesh, you can easily enjoy top speeds when surfing, watching videos or gaming. Breathtaking HD television and your favourite music are now waiting for you - and not the other way round.

60 to 80 per cent higher data rate via the power socket. The 2x2 MIMO function, in which two transmitters and receivers work simultaneously, provides a speed boost over the power line.

Note: The product is suitable for the EU market and is supplied with a Schuko adapter.
