Xiaomi Mi Wi-Fi range Extender AC1200
This WiFi extender actively expands and strengthens your existing wireless signal throughout your home. The device operates on two frequency bands, 2.4GHz and 5GHz, providing a combined transmission speed of up to 1200Mb/s. This device effectively eliminates wireless dead spots and resolves issues with weak signals behind thick walls. It uses the 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11ac wireless standards for a stable connection to your router. The internal 64MB RAM supports smooth operation and fast data stream processing.
Key features of the Xiaomi Mi Wi-Fi Range Extender AC1200
- Boosts WiFi signal and eliminates dead zones in your home
- Ethernet port allows you to connect wired devices like a TV or games console
- Smart signal indicator helps you find the best placement with a colour-coded display
- Access point mode lets you create your own WiFi hotspot from a wired internet connection
- SmartLink feature ensures a stable connection by automatically switching to the second band if the primary one fails
- Easy setup and device management using the Mi Home mobile app
- Operates on two frequency bands with a total transmission speed of up to 1200Mb/s
- Two non-detachable external antennas for signal propagation
Stable speed
The device operates on two bands simultaneously, reaching speeds of 300Mb/s on the 2.4GHz band and 867Mb/s on the 5GHz band. This technical combination prevents unwanted network dropouts when transferring large amounts of data and eliminates constant buffering. This means users can stream video content or download large files without any interruption. Two non-detachable external antennas help spread the signal to all corners of the building.
Wired connection for end devices
The integrated 10/100Mb/s Ethernet port is used to connect traditional wired devices. Using a network cable, you can easily connect a TV or games console directly to your home network without needing a wireless adapter. The extender thus functions as a wireless bridge, providing stable data transmission for devices that do not have their own Wi-Fi receiver. A wired connection helps maintain low latency when gaming or watching broadcasts.
Creating an access point
In addition to standard signal repeating, the device also supports access point mode. After plugging in an Ethernet cable from the main router, you can create a separate personal wireless hotspot anywhere in your house. This way, you can set up another wireless network with its own security. This mode is useful in places where you already have Ethernet cables run but lack wireless coverage for mobile phones and tablets.
SmartLink backup connection
The SmartLink feature maintains a stable connection to the main router at all times. In the event of an unexpected failure of the primary frequency band, it automatically switches to the backup frequency band, which helps prevent a complete loss of the wireless connection. The 2.4GHz band serves as a backup, waiting in standby mode for a possible failure of the main 5GHz band. The network thus remains constantly available for all connected users and end devices.
Positioning and management
A simple colour light indicator on the front shows the current strength of the signal received from the main router. Based on the indicator's colour, you can quickly determine a suitable installation spot in your home for optimal wireless coverage. Setup and subsequent management are done in the Mi Home mobile app, which simplifies the overall network configuration. The extender works seamlessly with any standard Wi-Fi router on the market.
