Hop on 5 GHz with full speed-boosting features to stream multiple 8K videos without lagging.

Extensive Wi-Fi Coverage with Advanced Technology
Enjoy stable Wi-Fi connections, even in the kitchen and bedroom. High-Power FEM, 6× Antennas, Beamforming, and 4T4R structures combine to adapt Wi-Fi coverage to perfectly fit your home and concentrate signal strength towards your devices.

Connect 200+ Devices
Easily handle dozens of devices streaming and gaming at the same time — OFDMA and MU-MIMO combine to future-proof your home network by providing greater capacity to connect more devices.

OFDMA
Enables different devices to share one transmission stream, increasing efficiency.‡

MU-MIMO
Transmits data to different devices simultaneously using multiple streams.**

Designed to Be Cool
The slant rectangle atop of the scaled armor design provides a contemporary aesthetic. The vent design takes up 167 cm² (25 in²) of its top surface for improved heat dissipation, unleashing the whole machine's full power.
