Description
BE19000 Tri-band WiFi 7 Router, support new 320MHz bandwidth & 4096-QAM, Multi-link operation (MLO), dual 10G ports, subscription-free network security and comprehensive VPN features
WiFi 7 – 2X Higher CapacityWiFi 7* introduces all-new ultrawide 320 MHz channels**, doubling data transmission capacity. You can think of networking as a virtual freeway and the doubled bandwidth as a doubling of the number of lanes. Now larger vehicles are allowed to get on the freeway and can pack more data than ever before.
Future-proof Your Connected HomesThe tri-band RT-BE96U offers 6 GHz, 5 GHz and 2.4 GHz WiFi networking, with speeds of up to 19Gbps*. This solution ensures comprehensive WiFi compatibility for all your devices, from cutting-edge mobile devices to legacy smart home products with long lifespans. With ASUS AiMesh technology, it's easy to combine RT-BE96U with multiple ASUS extendable routers to create a seamless mesh network with rich, advanced features.
Reliable WiFi with Multi-LinkBefore WiFi 7, transmissions were limited to one band, such as 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz. Multi-Link Operation* (MLO) allows a device to simultaneously connect on multiple bands, enabling faster speeds by aggregating bandwidth, with more reliable WiFi connections on multiple concurrently used bands. Connecting to multiple bands in this manner also enables seamless switching — a process that automatically allocates data to the most suitable band, to reduce latency.
RT-BE96U sending out one 5GHz band and one 6GHz band, two bands aggregates with simultaneous MLO technology for larger bandwidth, while 5GHz band and 6GHz combing into one with alternating MLO technology for seamless switch. Two bands received by smart phone, smart phone is connected to 5GHz and 6GHz band simultaneously.
Flexible Network Port ConfigurationThe RT-BE96U’s dual 10 Gbps ports make it a great choice for servers or NAS devices. These are more convenient than simply combining multiple gigabit Ethernet ports, and they help increase your available bandwidth to avoid data bottlenecks throughout your whole network. Users are also empowered to leverage multiple high-speed internet service providers.
Cool and StableThe RT-BE96U is engineered to deliver maximum WiFi performance. The increased clearance under the router is designed to improve airflow through the vents, complementing the quadruple heatsink for even greater reliability.
Subscription-Free Network SecurityHome network security is crucial when you have multiple connected devices. It’s even more important when there are components without anti-virus capabilities such as IoT devices. RT-BE96U provides commercial-grade AiProtection powered by Trend Micro™, your home network is automatically shielded with up-to-date protection against internet threats.
