What's the difference between an MK70 and a MK63
Hello,
I helped a friend set up his #MK70 router with the two satellites. Seemed like a nice system
Now I found a good price on an #MK63 -100NAR, however, after a lot of searching, I have not been able to find out what the main differences between those two models are.
Does anybody have an overview of the different models?
Thanks in advance,
istrebitjel
EDIT: I just figured out MK vs MR with another answer here! But the main question still stands 🙂
both are dual band systems but the MK70 system supports 160hz wide channels versus the MK60 is only 80hz wide.
Meaning the 70 series is a little faster.
If I had to choose, I'd look at the MK80 series as its a triband with the dedicated backaul.
i'm a fan of the dedicated backhaul.

MK(6or7)X is a bundle of an MR(6or7) router plus X (usually 2 or 3) MS satellites.
To work out the technical differences check the relevant data sheets.
