The new Covr-2202 is a follow-up to the recently launched Covr-C1203 dual band wi-fi mesh system and is also a scalable solution which in the future will allow you to use the extenders from both D-Link devices to extend the Wi Fi reach in your home.

The latest Covr-2202 is comprised of two taller units which can deliver blanket wireless coverage to an entire home.

This new tri-band AC2200 system features a dedicated 5Ghz smart backhaul which means there are two bands connecting to devices in your home and the third band connecting back to the router and satellite units rather than crowding the other two bands and slowing you down.

The inclusion of Smart Steering technology automatically directs devices to the optimal wireless band while Smart Roaming connects users to the strongest signal as people connected to the D-Link network move around their home.
