The ASUS RT-BE88U is a dual-band WLAN router operating on the Wi-Fi 7 (802.11be) standard, designed for demanding networking environments requiring high capacity and throughput. It operates across the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz frequency bands, providing a maximum aggregate wireless transfer rate of 7200 Mbit/s. The 5 GHz band achieves transfer rates up to 5764 Mbit/s, accommodating bandwidth-intensive activities such as 8K streaming or concurrent high-resolution gaming sessions. The inclusion of MU-MIMO and Beamforming technologies contributes to improved signal stability and efficient data distribution across numerous connected clients.
This router features robust wired connectivity, incorporating nine RJ45 Ethernet LAN ports to support extensive hardware integration. These ports facilitate various data rates, including 10 Gigabit, 2.5 Gigabit, and 1 Gigabit connections, enabling users to establish high-speed links to NAS units, servers, or workstations. Internal processing is managed by a quad-core 2600 MHz processor supported by 2048 MB of internal memory, maintaining network stability and traffic flow for a large number of devices. Network security relies on WPA3 Enterprise protocols alongside integrated firewall and access control measures.
Physical design includes four external antennas and a dedicated USB 3.2 Gen 1 port for connecting external storage devices or enabling 3G/4G tethering functionality. The RT-BE88U supports AiMesh, allowing for the integration of compatible ASUS routers to create a unified, scalable mesh network system for expanded coverage.
