Next Gen Connectivity for Fastest Sharing
The ASUS RT-AC56S leads the way in next generation routers, offering dual-band
Gigabit wireless with all-new 802.11ac Wi-Fi. Its powerful 128MB DDR3 RAM
provide the best performance in both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. The 5 GHz band works
at up to 867Mbps, while the 2.4 GHz frequency tops 300 Mbps, serving an
incredible combined bandwidth of 1167 Mbps. That's three times the speed of
standard 2×2 wireless-N routers! Plus, a USB 3.0 port means data transfers at
up to ten times the speed of USB 2.0, and the RT-AC56S comes dressed up in the
classy black diamond design. Together with USB 3.0, the ASUS AiCloud app makes
cloud access anywhere easy. This smart mobile application expands seamless ASUS
cloud experiences to Android and iOS devices, so you can quickly access, sync,
stream, and share content. The exclusive ASUSWRT interface delivers 30-second
setup, multiple SSIDs, and IPv6 support to further enhance networking, while USB
3.0/USB 2.0 ports instantly turn the RT-AC56S into a file, 3G/4G sharing,
enhanced media server, VPN, and printer server for the ultimate in multi-role
router functionality
World’s Fastest Wi-Fi: 802.11ac
Powered by 5th generation Wi-Fi (5G Wi-Fi), the new 802.11ac Broadcom chipset
gives the RT-AC56S superfast Gigabit wireless speeds. Compared with current
802.11n, the RT-AC56S delivers up to 867Mbps at 5 GHz, which is 3X faster than
previous 802.11n 2×2 router! The upgraded bandwidth has the higher capacity you
need to increase Wi-Fi enjoyment at home. With notebooks, desktops, pads, and
smartphones now all Wi-Fi-reliant, it’s time to upgrade to the next
generation so you can expand you connectivity now and in future.
Dual-Band Connectivity for Lag-Free Entertainment
Delivering 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz concurrent bands at up to 300 Mbps and 867Mbps,
respectively, the RT-AC56S has a total speed of up to 1167 Mbps, and maintains
complete stability. You can perform basic tasks like web browsing and file
downloading on the 2.4 GHz band, while simultaneously allowing multiple devices
to stream in HD or support online gaming and other demanding applications
smoothly on the clearer 5 GHz band.
