CommScope, the global leader in home networks, has announced its entry into the Wi-Fi 7 retail market with the launch of the SURFboard G54 DOCSIS 3.1 quad-band Wi-Fi 7 cable modem.

The flagship “SURFboard” G54 provides significant performance enhancements, which include the latest Wi-Fi 7 technology and it can also support multi-gigabit Internet plans. It is designed to include other advanced features like the DONCSIS 3.1, the quad-band Wi-Fi 7, a 10 Gbps Ethernet port and four 1 Gbps LAN ports.

With the “SURFboard” G54 consumers will be able to support next generation, high speed internet plan. It provides multi-gigabit speeds(dependent upon service provider plan) throughout the home and in addition to that the 10 Gbps Ethernet port ensures that the home network is able to support additional Gigabit services directly to the Ethernet connection.

Jonathan Wu, vice president of product and customer support, stated: “The “SURFboard” G54 takes innovation to the next level… It provides a superior home networking experience for our customers – no matter what next generation plans are to come in the years ahead.”

The “SURFboard” G54 ensures that older home devices, with previous Wi-Fi technology(Wi-Fi 5 or earlier), do not degrade the performance of the home network. It leverages the latest Wi-Fi 7 offerings with the following capabilities:

- the 6GHz band provides a large amount of uncongested spectrum, unused by previous Wi-Fi technology.

- Multi-Link Operation(MLO) combines different bands together for even faster speed, allowing supported Wi-Fi 7 clients to take advantage of simultaneous multiple band connections.

- the spectrum puncturing technology helps avoid channel interference to achieve faster Wi-Fi, even in noisy, crowded environments.

The “SURFboard” G54 features intelligent quad-band steering to ensure all devices have the optimal connection to the network depending on usage. It balances the system as needed, especially when varied Wi-Fi generation devices are present.  Smart channel management technology avoids channel interference and improves bandwidth to ensure the home network is not impacted by neighboring networks. Alternatively, users may choose to manually set devices to each band to personally manage the connections.
