AirPort Express

Historical development of some wireless router chipset variants

The AirPort Express is a discontinued Wi-Fi base station product from Apple Inc., part of the AirPort product line. While more compact and in some ways simpler than another Apple Wi-Fi base station, the AirPort Extreme, the Express offers audio output capability the Extreme lacks. The AirPort Express was the first AirPlay device to receive streamed audio from a computer running iTunes on the local network. AirPort Express outperforms the stringent requirements of the ENERGY STAR Program Requirements for Small Network Equipment (SNE) Version 1.0.^[1]

Apple discontinued developing its wireless routers in 2018,^[2] but as of 2021^[update] continues limited support of later models.^[3]

In Japan, the AirPort Express is called the AirMac express.^[4]
