Amped Wireless Now Shipping High Power Compact AC Wi-Fi Range Extender

CHINO, Calif., March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Amped Wireless, the

leading manufacturer of high power, long-range wireless solutions for

the home and office, today announced the availability of its REC15A

High Power Compact 802.11ac Wi-Fi Range Extender. The discreet,

wall-plug unit extends the signal of any standard 802.11a/b/g/n or ac

Wi-Fi router by repeating, amplifying, and redistributing the signal

in a new extended location, such as a far bedroom, backyard, or

upstairs office.

The Amped Wireless difference starts with High Power technology.

Standard Wi-Fi devices have an output power of a mere 50 milliwatts

(mW). While the REC15A packs up to 500 milliwatts (mW) of Wi-Fi output

power into a compact, elegant design - to eliminate dead spots and

attain more range. With four total amplifiers and a high gain, dual

band antenna, the REC15A provides up to 5,000 sq. ft. of extended

coverage. In addition, the REC15A features ultra-fast 802.11ac Wi-Fi

technology and simultaneously repeats both 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz Wi-Fi

signals.

"As more devices like tablets, smartphones, laptops and routers

supporting the new 802.11ac Wi-Fi standard become available the need

for faster, longer range Wi-Fi continues to grow," stated Jason Owen,

CEO of Amped Wireless. "With the introduction of the REC15A, Amped

remains at the forefront of Wi-Fi extending solutions by offering

another high performance more affordable option for extending AC Wi-Fi

coverage."

At a mere three inches tall by five inches wide, the REC15A can be

discreetly installed in any outlet. The REC15A can also be set up

wirelessly, using a tablet or laptop, in minutes. Just simply plug it

into an outlet, access the web menu and select a single or dual band

network to extend. It's compatible with all brands of standard Wi-Fi

routers and Internet service provider gateways. One additional wired

port is built into the REC15A for connecting PCs, TVs, Blu-ray

players, game consoles and any other network device. The REC15A is

equipped with top security features including parental controls like

restricted access for certain users, time of day schedules to limit

the network's availability, and adjustable Wi-Fi coverage settings to

reel in the signal strength.

All Amped Wireless products include the Wi-Fi Analytics Tool App, free

for Android and Windows devices to help users analyze and optimize

their networks. The app allows users to fine tune their network to get

the maximum speed and coverage from their device. All Amped products

are also backed by industry leading, U.S.-based, in-house Elite

Technical Support provided by Amped Concierges. The Elite Support team
