The Edimax EW-7822UAC USB 3.0 adapter is the next generation of Wi-Fi adapter, compatible with the draft 802.11ac standard and delivering speeds of up to 867Mbps at 5GHz – almost three times as fast as 802.11n. The EW-7822AC is the first adapter of its kind to offer 802.11ac speeds together with USB 3.0 connectivity. Upgrade PC’s and notebooks to super high speed 802.11ac Wi-Fi and enjoy streaming video and data at speeds of up to 867Mbps.
