ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) announced the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 tri-band WiFi 7 gaming router at Computex 2024. This next-generation router is designed to elevate gaming and computing experiences with ultra-fast tri-band WiFi 7 speeds of up to 19 Gbps, innovative features like Automatic Frequency Coordination, and comprehensive wired and wireless network functions.
Next-Gen WiFi Power
The ASUS ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 router delivers ultra-fast wireless speeds of up to 19 Gbps, thanks to cutting-edge WiFi 7 features such as 320 MHz channels, 4096-QAM, and Multi-Link Operation. It is the world’s first gaming router with Automatic Frequency Coordination (AFC), which automatically scans the WiFi environment and selects the least congested channel in the 6 GHz band.
This boosts peak transmit power by up to 63 times higher than Low Power Indoor networking devices. Additionally, the GT-BE19000 provides up to 31 Gbps of wired capacity, including dual 10 Gb Ethernet and quad 2.5 Gb Ethernet ports, ensuring robust and stable connections.
Effortless Game Boosts with Gaming Network
The ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 features Guest Network Pro, an ASUS-exclusive network segmentation technology that allows gamers to manage network features and connected devices easily. The Gaming Network setting combines all gaming features into a single SSID, allowing gamers to enjoy optimal performance without needing to configure each device individually.
With Triple-Level Game Acceleration, the GT-BE19000 prioritizes game data packets from the gaming device to the router and the game server, enhancing the gaming experience.
AiMesh Made Smarter with WiFi 7 and AI
ASUS introduces Multi-Link Operation support for its next-gen Smart AiMesh feature in routers like the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000. Smart AiMesh provides AI-powered wireless backhaul, intelligently prioritizing high-demand packets to the faster band, ensuring buffer-free gaming and streaming experiences. The router also features a 10 Gb Ethernet LAN port for a dedicated wired backhaul option, enabling an always-connected extendable mesh network.
Feature Updates for the Complete ASUS WiFi 7 Lineup
Along with the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000, ASUS users can enjoy Multi-Link Operation support and advanced features, including Smart AiMesh and enhanced security features such as Guest Network Pro (or its lite version, Smart Home Master), on many ASUS and ROG WiFi 7 routers.
This includes models like the ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro, ROG Rapture GT-BE98, ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16 Pro (BE30000), ASUS ZenWiFi BQ16, and ASUS RT-BE88U.
Further information on availability and pricing will be announced at a later date.
