The PR60X router is designed for performance, security and ease of use in mind. With 10G/Multi-Gigabit throughput, 10G/2.5G dual WAN ports, and 10G/2.5G/Multi-Gigabit LAN ports, it can handle Internet and device speeds of today and for years to come. As the gateway to a network, the router protects against malicious incoming traffic. The built-in firewall blocks unauthorized access to the network and monitors the communications between the network and the outside world.

The PR60X also sports a sleek rackmount design with ports in the rear for simple, clean integration among pre-existing data networking equipment. It also includes reverse mounting rack ears for front-facing ports, if desired, helping users to attain a unified, traditional look. Its technical capacity and Netgear’s support make it a reliable and affordable, cloud managed 10G routing solution.

The Netgear PR60X is available in the US now on Netgear.com for $699.99 and includes a 3-year warranty.
