Razer Sila, a new high performance gaming router
Focusing on interference-free connections even in the most congested WiFi areas, the new Razer router is designed to offer best-in-class speeds. In addition, it boasts built-in detection for PlayStation, Xbox and Switch.
Razer has announced its new router for gamers called Razer Sila and available from today. It is a high-performance solution designed for users who need a WiFi service optimized for gaming, streaming and downloading multimedia content.
Razer Sila has a suite of technologies designed to provide players with the fastest and most reliable WiFi connection in their home or office with Razer FasTrack, Multi-Channel Zero-Wait DFS and Mesh functionality with dedicated backhaul.
We start from the priority QoS manageable through the proprietary Razer FasTrack software, which is designed to optimize performance through deep packet inspection and adaptive learning technology. Razer FasTrack allows users to prioritize traffic based on the application and device types, from mobile phones and smart TVs to laptops, PCs or consoles.
The software also features built-in detection for PlayStation, Xbox and Switch and one-touch game mode, to automatically reserve bandwidth for online games.
Razer Sila’s patented Multi-Channel DFS (Dynamic Frequency Selection) technology enables clean WiFi channels to avoid network traffic and maintain higher speeds for more intensive applications without incurring downtime, hanging and disconnection. The DFS technology can be very important for a router that wants to offer a certain level of performance for gaming, by enabling additional radio channels, as we have already seen in the case of the Netgear Nighthawk XR500.
The Razer Sila router is also able to provide advanced mesh networking. Two or more Razer Sila units can be combined to offer uniform and fast WiFi coverage over areas of up to approximately 560 square meters with two units or multi-storey locations over 560 square meters with three units. As a Tri-Band router, Razer Sila has a dedicated 5GHz backhaul and independent front links operating on up to 4 simultaneous DFS channels, further reducing network interference and congestion.
Razer Sila was developed in collaboration with the partner in wireless home networks Ignition Design Labs, a company founded by veterans who have worked for networking giants such as Qualcomm and Broadcom. Ignition Design Labs is known for launching the famous WiFi Smart Portal router in 2016.
