Product information

Top features: - AirPort storage brings wireless backup to your Mac - Time Machine compatible to protect your data efficiently - Strong and secure wireless internet with a powerful directional signal - Hard drive sharing and printer connectivity AirPort storage The Apple AirPort Time Capsule brings super-fast wireless connection with simple backup tools and a large 2 TB storage space. The AirPort Capsule is more than just a hard drive. The full-featured device has been developed with a WiFi base station running the latest three-stream 802.11ac technology. This gives you the ability to transfer data at rapid rates of up to 1.3 Gbps. Backup and store data from multiple Mac computers over the wireless network. This powerful hard drive can support a number of Mac devices, with no need to connect to your Mac computers with cables - store and backup wirelessly from another room. Time Machine compatible AirPort Time capsule has been developed to work seamlessly with Time Machine in OS X Leopard or later. This allows you to protect your data more efficiently. Time Machine continuously makes a backup copy of your data and saves a number of versions, giving you easy access to restore lost files. As soon as you connect the AirPort Time Capsule to a DSL or cable modem the easy-to-follow set-up assistant will take care of the rest for you. Strong and secure wireless The Time Capsule hard drive is equipped with a powerful beamforming antenna array. This intelligent base station antenna knows where the 802.11ac device is located on the network. It targets that particular signal, resulting in a stronger and faster connection. With a built-in firewall, the Apple hard drive creates a barrier between the network and the internet. The firewall activates automatically when the device is switched on - you don't need to a do a thing. Hard drive sharing You can even connect your old USB hard drive to the Apple AirPort Time Capsule and all your photos, videos and other files will be made available over the wireless network. The USB port can also be used to share a printer across the network in the same way - just connect the printer to the Time Capsule and everyone on the network can benefit from wireless printing.
