Product details
The growing number of networked personal and IoT devices has led to a general increase in network density, pushing the current WLAN standard to its limits. The latest 802.11ax standard offers future-proof
technologies, higher network efficiency, faster WLAN speeds, greater coverage and improved battery life for connected devices, providing users with a much better network experience.
The RT-AX88U is a 4x4 dual-band WLAN router that offers 160 MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM for significantly faster wireless connections. With an overall network speed of approximately 6000 Mbps - 1148 Mbps in the 2.4 GHz band and 4804 Mbps in the 5 GHz band - the RT-AX88U is 2.3x faster than 4x4 dual-band routers using the 802.11ac standard.
With a revolutionary combination of OFDMA and MU MIMO technology, 802.11ax technology offers up to four times the network capacity and efficiency in high traffic environments. The previous generation, the 802.11ac WLAN, can process only one device simultaneously on each network channel, which means inefficient use of the available bandwidth. OFDMA support in the 802.11ax WLAN standard divides each channel into small subchannels so that signals from multiple devices can be bundled and transmitted simultaneously. This reduces latency and provides a smoother, more responsive WLAN experience.
AX6000 Dual-Band 802.11ax WLAN router with support for MU-MIMO and OFDMA technology, AiProtection-Pro network security powered by Trend Micro, integrated wtfast game accelerator and Adaptive QoS.
Next-generation WLAN standard - 802.11ax WLAN standard for greater efficiency and throughput.
Ultra-high WLAN speed - 6000Mbps WLAN speed to handle even the busiest networks.
More flexible use and convenience - 4 antennas + 8 LAN interfaces for more simultaneously connected devices.
Business-class network security - Trend Micro's AiProtection blocks Internet threats for all connected smart devices.
Better coverage with the mesh system - Compatible with the ASUS AiMesh WLAN system for seamless coverage throughout the home.
