RT-BE96U

2X Higher Capacity: WiFi 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.

Before 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 SSIDs in this manner also enables “seamless switching” where your data will automatically be allocated 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.

The 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.
