The World's First Quad-Band WiFi 6E Gaming Router

The trailblazing ROG Rapture GT-AXE16000 is the world's very first quad-band WiFi 6E gaming router, delivering incredible speeds of up to 16000 Mbps. We've unlocked the full potential of the four frequency bands — 2.4 GHz, two 5 GHz(The 160MHz bandwidth may be unavailable in the 5GHz band in some regions / countries due to regulatory restrictions.) bands, and 6 GHz — with 160 MHz channels in the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands to bring you the fastest speeds possible.

Quad-Band - Experience Ultimate Connectivity

With four frequency bands available, you can dedicate each band to different devices for faster and smoother WiFi connections. It also gives you even more flexible options for connecting ASUS AiMesh-compatible routers as mesh nodes if you want to create a whole-home mesh system.

• 6GHz - 4804 Mbps
• 5GHz-1 - 4804 Mbps
• 5GHz-2 - 4804 Mbps
• 2.4GHz - 1148 Mbps

5 GHZ Backhaul - Built as the Ultimate AiMesh Router

By default, one of GT-AXE16000's two 5 GHz bands is used as a dedicated backhaul connection to the central router, so your devices still have full tri-band access to the 2.4 GHz band, the second 5GHz band and the 6 GHz band.

6 GHZ Backhaul - Built as the Ultimate AiMesh Router

Alternatively, with WiFi 6E AiMesh nodes you can configure a 6 GHz backhaul connection, providing fast and interference-free transmission between nodes for an optimized mesh experience.

WiFi 6E - 6 GHz Band

WiFi 6E gives you up to seven(Subject to regulatory limitations, and co-existence with 5 GHz WiFi. Number of channels may be less than 7. If no 6 GHz SSID is displayed, please check whether your OS and client device are fully licensed to support the newly released 6 GHz band. You can check with your OS and client device provider for the WiFi 6E driver release schedule.) additional high-speed 160 MHz channels, for multi-gigabit speeds with stable and consistent connections. It dramatically increases network capacity while reducing bandwidth congestion, delivering higher performance for every WiFi 6E device.

• 5GHz - Three 160MHz Channels
• 6GHz - New 6GHz band with 7 extra 160MHz Channels

Flexible Network Port Configuration

ROG Rapture GT-AXE16000 has two dual-function 10 Gbps WAN/LAN ports, four 1 Gbps LAN ports, and a 2.5 Gbps WAN port. This flexibility gives you the ability to deliver massive bandwidth to your wired devices, and take advantage of ultra-high-speed internet connections in any scenarios.

LAN Aggregation

Using LAN aggregation you can bond two 1 Gbps LAN ports together to create a 2 Gbps LAN connection, which is great for supplying extra bandwidth to high-bandwidth wired network devices such as your compatible NAS or desktop PC.

Dual WAN

Customize Your WAN

Multi-WAN usage is increasingly popular, and it's great for those who need unstoppable internet. With one 2.5 Gbps WAN port, two 10 Gbps ports and four 1 Gbps ports that can also be configured as WAN ports, you don't have to rely on a single ISP. With dual internet connections from two different ISPs, even if one fails, you'll still have access to the other.

WAN Aggregation

WAN aggregation lets you to combine a 2.5 Gbps port and a 1 Gbps port to unlock up to 3.5 Gbps of WAN bandwidth, fast enough for even the latest ultra-high-speed ISPs. This massive internet bandwidth can be shared via WiFi 6/6E or the second 2.5 Gbps LAN port.

Dual 10 Gbps Ports

For power users with 10GBase-T-enabled PCs, servers or NAS devices, the dual 10 Gbps ports are perfect. These are more convenient than simply combining multiple gigabit Ethernet ports, and help increase your available bandwidth to avoid data bottlenecks for your whole network.
