Belkin N Wireless Router uses a new smart-antenna technology called Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO). N MIMO complies with the IEEE draft 802.11n specification. It increases speed, range, reliability, and spectral efficiency for wireless networking systems. The element that makes Belkin's N MIMO technology different from a conventional radio is the use of multiple antennas and two simultaneous data streams to deliver wireless transfers around your home or office. A conventional radio uses one antenna to transmit a data stream. Belkin's N MIMO, on the other hand, uses two antennas. This design helps combat distortion and interference. Belkin's N MIMO is multidimensional. It builds on one-dimensional smart-antenna technology by simultaneously transmitting two data streams through the same channel, which increases wireless capacity.
