The RT2600AC body is quite large, 280 x 169 x 77mm.Basically, it does not support vertical placement, so it seems to be difficult to secure a place to place.
Synology is famous for its high -performance NAS kit, and is a major that is called Synology, especially for high -end users.A high-end Wi-Fi router appears from such a synology.That is "RT2600AC".In North America, etc., it has been released since early 2017, but this time it was fully launched into the Japanese market.
Supports up to 1733Mbps wireless LAN communication, and two WAN simultaneous use can be used.
The reason why Synology -made NAS is gaining great support from high -end users is that it has abundant functions and expandability that overwhelm competing products.Not only does it cover a function that overwhelms the NAS for home in the standard state, but also the dedicated application called "add -on package" can be freely enhanced after purchase.
And the DNA has been firmly inherited to the Synology Wi-Fi router "RT2600AC", which appeared in Japan for the first time in Japan.Like a high -end model, it not only covers a very rich function that overwhelms competitive products, but also enhances its function by adding add -on packages.
The characteristic part will be introduced later, and here are the basic functions as a Wi-Fi router.
RT2600AC is 802.Wi-Fi router corresponding to 11a/b/g/n/A-compliant wireless LAN.802 as a wireless LAN communication standard.Compatible with 11ac WAVE2.Compatible with 4x4 MIMO communication, speed is 2.Up to 800Mbps in 4GHz band, up to 1733Mbps in 5GHz bands.Of course, 2.4GHz band and 5GHz band can be used simultaneously.
802.Compatible with 11ac WAVE2 and supports 4x4 MIMO communication.The communication speed is up to 1733Mbps for 5GHz bandwidth, 2.4GHz bandwidth is up to 800Mbps, 5GHz/2.4GHz simultaneous communication is also supported.With 4 large antennas, the radio waves are likely to fly well
It also supports beamforming and multi-user MIMO, making it a specification like the latest high-end Wi-Fi router.In addition, 2.The function of "smart connection" is also provided, which is a commonization of 4GHz bands and 5GHz bands SSIDs and automatically select the optimal bandwidth while monitoring the wireless situation.Outside the main unit, four large antennas are installed, and it is considered that wireless reaches a wide range.
2.A "smart connection" function that operates the 4GHz band and 5GHz band wireless LAN with the same SSID and automatically selects the optimal bandwidth and connects.
The wired LAN has one port for Gigabit Ethernet compatible WAN ports and 4 ports for Gigabit Ethernet.And the first port of the four LANs is also available as a two -system WAN port, and has the feature that two WANs can be used simultaneously.As a result, it is possible to allocate data communication to each of the two WANs to distribute the load, or to deal with problems for backup.
It has a WAN port and a 4 -port LAN port, and both are compatible with Gigabit Ethernet.Also, the first port of LAN works as the second WAN port.
It can be used by using two WANs to distribute the load or use one as a backup.
For processors that perform internal processing, 1.A 7GHz operation Qualcom IPQ8065 Dual Core processor is used.RAM is also equipped with an exceptional capacity as a wireless LAN router.As a result, not only advanced network -related processing but also abundant additional functions can be handled.The internal test confirms that even if 120 wireless LAN devices are connected at the same time, the practical speed will be demonstrated.
The body size is quite large, 280 x 169 x 77mm, and the antenna itself is 165mm.As a Wi-Fi router, it is almost the largest size, and it may be a bit difficult to secure a installation location.
Equipped with abundant additional functions such as advanced file sharing functions
Let's look at the abundant additional functions.First of all, the file sharing function is worrisome about Synology.There are many products that connect storage devices such as USB-connected HDDs to general Wi-Fi routers and realize files in the LAN and remote access from the go, but the file sharing of the RT2600AC file.The functions have high functions that exceed home NAS products.First, not only basic functions such as file sharing and media file sharing, but also advanced functions such as backup of client PCs and synchronization of specific folders.
By connecting a storage device to the back USB port, advanced file sharing functions can be used.
Also, using the function of "Cloud Station Server", data synchronization with Android and iOS terminals as well as Windows and Mac is possible.It can be used not only in the LAN but also via the Internet, so it can be used as a personal cloud.In addition, an SD card slot is prepared on the main unit, and the SD card can be used as a storage of file sharing functions.
By using the "Cloud Station Server" function, file synchronization functions with PCs and smartphones can be used and can be used as a personal cloud.
There is an SD card slot on the front of the main unit, and the SD card can be used as a storage device for file sharing.
Next is the VPN server function.The "VPN Plus Server" feature can use PPTP, L2TP, SSTP, Open VPN and VPN protocols that support a wealth of VPN protocols.In addition, a function called "SSL VPN" and "WebVPN" are also available as Synology's unique VPN functions.Here, the VPN function can be easily utilized via a dedicated application or a web browser, so the VPN function becomes closer.In addition, the VPN function is also very powerful, with a "Site to Site VPN" function that can be connected between the locations separately by VPN and connected by a dedicated line.
The "VPN Plus Server" function covers advanced VPN functions, such as VPN server functions that support abundant protocols and "Site-to-Site VPN" functions that connect between bases.
Synonogy's unique VPN function "Synonogy VPN" provides a function that can be easily connected to VPN using apps and browsers.
In addition, security functions are enhanced.The basic functions such as Five Wall and DOS attacks are firmly covered.On top of that, as "Palental Control", we also provide a web filter function that sets the Internet connection time of specific terminals in detail, and blocks access to a specific website or a website belonging to the specified category.Especially in families with children, it can be said that it is a very effective function because access to harmful sites such as adult sites can be easily cut off.
The security function is also substantial, so we can block the web access for each category and specify the net access time for specific devices in detail.
The biggest feature is that you can add functions from the "package center".In the package center, various additional functions are provided as apps, and adding that app can be freely enhanced.Synonogy NAS has a similar mechanism, but it is almost inherited by the RT2600AC.Additional functions such as "Cloud Station Server" and "VPN Plus Server" introduced can be used by adding functions from the package center.In the future, if new apps are prepared, further enhancements can be enhanced, and this part can be a very great attraction of RT2600AC.
The major feature is that additional functions can be installed by installing additional functions from the "Package Center", such as "Cloud Station Server" and "VPN Plus Server".
Somewhat expensive, but full of functions that match the price
In this way, the RT2600AC is full of functions that are incomparable to general Wi-Fi routers, and is a high-end model-like product.The price is a little expensive at 29,800 yen, but given that this abundant function can be used, it is fully convinced.Of course, considering the specifications, the main user base is high -end users, gamers, and SOHO, but this abundant functions can be used relatively easily, so even beginners are worth purchasing.
