USRobotics (USR), a Platinum Equity company, has announced that two leading IT resellers in the UAE - King of Computers and Q-Line – have implemented the state-of-the-art USR MAXg product family at their Dubai showrooms to provide Wi-Fi access for customers. King of Computers and Q-Line are both Premier Partners of USR.

The USR MAXg family of wireless products deliver maximum wireless range, while ensuring maximum security and speed. MAXg extended-range technology uses advanced digital signal processing techniques to improve wireless reception, enabling MAXg clients to maintain high-speed connections up to 50 percent further from an access point.  Superior designs on the MAXg routers and APs provide additional range in any wireless network – even if other devices do not use MAXg technology. MAXg technology is standards-compliant and certified by the Wi-Fi Alliance.

The MAXg family incorporates the latest security measures to protect Wi-Fi networks, including Wi-Fi Protected Access, 802.1x network authentication, Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP), Disable Broadcast SSID and MAC address authentication. Moreover, the MAXg line of wireless products is easy to install, set up and use, thanks to the SureStart installation wizard, developed by USR, which assures the easiest, fastest installation in the industry.

Sunny Menghani, Managing Director, King of Computers, said, “USR’s MAXg was a clear choice for us once we decided to go wireless at our Bur Dubai showroom, as it is known to offer distinct advantages over similar products in its category. With this move, our customers can now feel first-hand the unparalleled Wi-Fi experience offered by MAXg.”

Sunil Lalwani, Director, Q-Line, said, “USR products have always been immensely popular, owing to their availability, range and excellent quality. The MAXg series in particular has been generating tremendous customer response, both in terms of actual demand and product enquiry. By outfitting our showroom with MAXg, we give our customers a chance to see for themselves the excellent connectivity and performance offered by MAXg.”

“MAXg has redefined the concept of wireless networking, and it comes as no surprise that this state-of-the-art system continues to hold its appeal among a cross-section of users,” said Sumit Kumar, Regional Manager, Middle East and North Africa, USRobotics. “It is a testament to USR’s market reputation and superior product quality that resellers are increasingly choosing to implement our networking solutions despite the presence of our competitors’ products in these showrooms. The overwhelming user response to MAXg has helped USRobotics further consolidate its leadership position in the Middle East market.”

“We are pleased to strengthen our strategic alliance with King of Computers and Q-Line. USR is focused on improving its relationship with its valued resellers, whose efforts have been crucial to our strong market position in the region,” Kumar concluded.
