Comcast has launched a new, innovative gateway with Tri-Band WiFi 6E technology that delivers faster speeds, lower latency, and ‘Instant On’ connectivity to apartment residents.
The gateway allows building owners to activate additional networks to power Smart technologies and provide residents and building staff with seamless WiFi coverage across an entire property. This industry-first, award-winning product is purpose-built and retrofit-friendly for the multifamily segment. It combines cutting-edge technology with space-saving and wall-mountable design to deliver unparalleled performance and convenience.
The gateway represents a significant leap forward in addressing the unique connectivity needs of apartment residents and property owners alike. When pre-installed throughout a property, this Multifamily Xfinity Broadband Gateway offers property owners an easy way to provide tenants ‘Instant On’ WiFi access without waiting for equipment, scheduling a service appointment, or speaking to an agent. Residents simply download the Xfinity app and connect. When a resident moves out, the gateway is automatically reset and stays in place, ready for the next individual or family.
“Our new gateway transforms multifamily connectivity, elevating the resident experience. This advanced device delivers superior performance to support modern home ecosystems,” said Ilan Eframian, Vice President of Xfinity Communities. “The ‘Instant On’ feature ensures seamless, secure Internet access, allowing residents to focus on settling in. Additionally, it empowers building owners to activate property-wide services and smart devices without extra hardware.”
The gateway is the heart of Xfinity Communities’ Connected Building solution that completely changes the way building owners can achieve modern connectivity – both in unit and building-wide – all at a price-point much lower than traditional managed WiFi solutions.
