Orange Maroc has introduced its new generation of smart routers at Gitex Africa 2025 in Marrakech, showcasing cutting-edge technology designed to enhance connectivity. These eco-friendly routers, featuring a Moroccan-inspired design, prioritize security and autonomous management, powered by the innovative prpl OS operating system in collaboration with cybersecurity partner Bitdefender.

The routers are engineered for ultra-fast performance, offering users enhanced security and an intuitive management experience. The integration of prpl OS allows for seamless network setup and robust security measures, ensuring that both individual and business users can manage their connected devices with ease. The Max it app enables clients to adjust settings and secure their networks with just one click.

At the heart of this innovation, prpl OS is an open-source system tailored for routers and connected devices. This system promotes 100% autonomous management, simplifying the user experience and improving network security. As a member of the prpl Foundation, Orange is committed to advancing technological standards and ensuring the safety of connected devices.

In partnership with Bitdefender, Orange Maroc enhances its cybersecurity offerings, providing advanced features such as an integrated VPN, parental controls, and firewalls aimed at small businesses. These features empower users to protect their networks while enjoying simplified management through the Max it app.

The smart routers are designed for ultra-fast connectivity, incorporating the latest technologies, including Wi-Fi 7 and 5G compatibility. This makes them well-suited for current Fiber users while also being future-ready for the transition to 5G.

Emphasizing a blend of technology and culture, the Moroccan design draws inspiration from traditional mosaics and moucharabiehs, ensuring that the devices fit seamlessly into any home or office setting. Created by Orange Innov, the design merges aesthetic appeal with functional performance.

Orange Maroc is also dedicated to sustainability, integrating an adaptive sleep mode that reduces energy consumption by up to 30% during periods of inactivity. This initiative is part of a broader commitment to achieving net-zero carbon emissions within the next year.

Targeting both homes and businesses, these smart routers are designed to meet the diverse needs of users, delivering secure and high-performance services. The launch at Gitex Africa 2025 positions Orange Maroc at the forefront of digital innovation, aligning with global trends in cybersecurity and sustainable technology.

The new generation of smart routers represents a strategic advancement for Orange Maroc, reflecting its commitment to providing state-of-the-art solutions that prioritize performance, security, and environmental responsibility.
