Hi @mobb,

 

Interesting!  I wonder how it differs from the 660HD

 

620 HD 2 radio, 2x2

660 HD 2 radio, 4x4

680 HD ???  (3 radio? 4x4 or 8x8?)

 

It seems the 680 has 10Gbit ethernet which is nice:
 

  • Multi-Gigabit Wired Performance - Boosts overall throughput with a 10G Ethernet port supported by an 802.3bt PoE++ power supply

 

The 620 & 660 are "multi-gig" only (2.5 Mbit I believe, maybe 5).

 

-Jonathan

@JSchnee21 My guess would be dual 5GHz radio (there is a hint: Tri-Band WiFi 6 Speeds), each with 4x4. 1200 + 2400 + 2400 = 6000.

Could be the first Wifi 6E product but the product page only mentions Wifi 6 so that is probably unlikely.

 

And I guess since it's PoE it would be 10GBASE-T which is a bit unfortunate but understandable. And we'll probably see a new switch as well to go with it.
