Linksys reinforces market leadership in the UAE

Recognized leading provider of wireless technology, Linksys is bringing to the UAE, first in a line of Wireless-N products in response to the surging wireless market in the region.

Wireless-N Gateway (WAG300N), Broadband Router (WRT300N) and Notebook Adapter (WPC300N), which will be built to the 802.11n Draft Specification, are expected to lead the segment in the local market soon.

"We forecast the wireless market for consumers and small businesses in the UAE will maintain stable growth in the upcoming years"
