Netgear's XR700 Nighthawk Pro Gaming Router Features 10-Gigabit Ethernet

Netgear is upping the ante in the gamer-oriented router arena with the XR700 Nighthawk Pro. This 802.11ad router’s signature feature is a 10-gigabit-per-second ethernet port that, when connected to Netgear’s SX10 Nighthawk Pro switch, provides a whopping 15 wired gigabit ports for the ultimate LAN party. If you’re lucky enough to have an insanely fast broadband connection, that 10G port can be configured as a WAN port.
