The growing number of connected personal and IoT devices has led to an overall increase in network density that is pushing the limits of the current Wi-Fi standard. The latest 802.11ax standard provides future-proof technologies, higher network efficiency, faster Wi-Fi speeds, greater coverage, and improved battery life for connected devices, providing a significantly better networking experience for users. The ASUS RT-AX55 is a 2x2 dual-band Wi-Fi router that provides 80MHz bandwidth and 1024-QAM for dramatically faster wireless connections. With a total networking speed of about 1800Mbps, 574Mbps on the 2.4GHz band and 1201Mbps on the 5GHz band. RT-AX55 is 1.5x faster than 802.11ac 2x2 dual-band routers.
Built for Multi-Device Households
With a revolutionary combination of OFDMA and MU-MIMO technology, 802.11ax technology provides up to 4x greater network capacity and efficiency in traffic-dense environments. Previous-generation 802.11ac Wi-Fi can only handle one device at a time on each network channel, which is an inefficient use of available bandwidth. OFDMA support in the 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard divides each channel into small sub-channels, allowing signals from multiple devices to be bundled together and transmitted simultaneously, reducing latency for a smoother, more responsive Wi-Fi experience. RT-AX55 has lifetime free AiProtection Classic, powered by Trend Micro, with automatic, regularly updated security signatures to protect your devices and personal data from internet threats.
Better Battery Life for Your Devices
Target Wake Time (TWT) allows the RT-AX55 to schedule designated intervals for devices to transmit data. This allows them to sleep when there is no need to wait for a router signal, reducing power consumption by up to 7x for significantly improved battery life.
Wi-Fi that Goes Further
With the latest 802.11ax Wi-Fi standard featuring OFDMA technology, RT-AX55 provides increased Wi-Fi signal range and better coverage by dividing each channel into smaller sub-channels. These sub-channels have a smaller bandwidth that enables them to travel up to 80 percent farther, resulting in a better Wi-Fi connection throughout your home.
Powerful Whole-Home Wi-Fi System. The Way You Want
In most cases, your RT-AX55 can deliver smooth, reliable Wi-Fi to every part of your home. But Wi-Fi coverage can be affected by many factors - room layout, construction materials, and even furnishings. ASUS AiMesh is an innovative new router feature that fixes these problems: it creates a whole-home Wi-Fi network using multiple ASUS routers. AiMesh is powerful and flexible, and you can use a mix of ASUS router models, protecting your investment. AiMesh gives you time-saving central control and seamless roaming capability. AiMesh is Wi-Fi you can rely on for all your devices, all the time.
