THE FRITZ!BOX 7590 INTERNATIONAL

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

avm fritz box 7590 7tAs you can all see AVM moved away from the enclosure design they've been using for many years now and although the new one is still made out of plastic we think it looks more "refined". In terms of size the new enclosure is actually almost identical with the one used with the 7490 model (245x175x55mm) and so it measures 250mm in width, 184mm in depth and 48mm in height.

 

 

The 5 large activity LEDs at the top of the device (power-DSL/wireless Lan/DECT phone/WPS/info) also feature buttons next to them for easier/faster access (compared to previous FRITZ!Box models).

 

 

Most of the rear is perforated to allow hot air to exit the interior.

 

 

On the right side of the enclosure we see a TAE-N type connector (German standard) while on the left we see one of the two available USB 3.0 ports.

 

 

At the rear we find 5 RJ45 Gigabit LAN ports, WAN Gigabit port, USB 3.0 port, VDSL port and the analog phone ports. 

 

The bottom is also perforated and has four small rubber feet and two holes for wall mounting. 

 


Once you open the enclosure the large black heatsink placed over the Intel chips steals the show (pretty much). On this side of the PCB we also see the Qualcomm QCA9984 and QCA9985 radios, Litelink CPC5622A module (responsible for the answering machine feature) and the Dialog SC14446 module (responsible for the DECT system).

 

 

There are also three MaxBeam High Gain Antennas by Airgain placed on the three out of 4 sides of the unit.
