And 4K video takes what, something like 25 Mbps? So you can watch 200 of them
at once!
And notice it only has gigabit ports. Shouldn’t it have at least one SFP+ port
for 10 gig wired? Maybe this is for the person who has their own media server
in their house (but hates wires). It had better be in the same room with the
router, since 60 GHz is not going to penetrate walls very wall.
Perhaps people are going to have gaming and multimedia PCs that stream the raw
video over the home wireless network to their tablet or some sort of thin
client. Kind of along the lines of the wireless TV receivers you get with
satellite and cable now, or an extension of the Chromecast concept.

Very funny!
Interesting statement:
There�s quite a few technical reasons as to why the jump to 60GHz is a good
thing, but the most important for the average consumer is speed. The 5GHz band
maxes out at 1,733Mbps, but the new 60GHz band can achieve wireless transfer
speeds of up to 4,600Mbps. So streaming 4K video without a network cable? Not a
problem.
Oh right. Like all of us have 4.6 Gbps to the home... or even 1.7 Gbps...
