ASUS ZenWiFi Pro ET12

Wider Range with Superior Speed

LOW LATENCY & LESS INTERFERENCE

WiFi 6E uses the newly-available 6 GHz frequency band, a band that can only be used by WiFi 6E devices. This means that older devices don’t interfere with WiFi 6E performance at all, giving you faster, more reliable connections for your WiFi 6E devices.

MASSIVE CAPACITY

WiFi 6E has up to seven extra high-speed 160 MHz channels*, giving you multi-gigabit speeds with stable and consistent connections. It dramatically increases network capacity while reducing congestion, delivering higher performance for every WiFi 6E device.

MORE STREAMS, MORE BANDWIDTH

ZenWiFi Pro ET12 is a 12-stream device, with combined total data rates up to 11000 Mbps. This boosts its capacity for transmitting and receiving data to large numbers of devices simultaneously, reducing dead zones and giving ZenWiFi Pro ET12 the performance edge for the busiest home networks.

RANGEBOOST PLUS

ASUS RangeBoost Plus is the latest, most powerful version of our renowned RangeBoost technology, and it improves coverage for all your WiFi devices including legacy devices. Using a next-gen flagship Broadcom WiFi chipset and a 2.0GHz 64-bit quad-core CPU, RangeBoost Plus leverages multiple exclusive ASUS technologies to dramatically improve WiFi signal range and coverage by up to 38%*.

EASY SCALABILITY FOR FLEXIBLE NETWORKING

With ASUS AiMesh, it’s easy to add extra nodes for improved coverage or new features — simply add any AiMesh-compatible router!

DUAL 2.5G LAN AND WAN PORTS

ZenWiFi Pro ET12 has both a 2.5G LAN port and a 2.5G WAN port, so you can enjoy full 2.5 Gbps speeds all the way from a compatible ISP to your compatible wired devices.

NEW 6 GHZ BAND FOR STABLE BACKHAUL

5 GHz and 2.4 GHz bands are getting more and more crowded with the growing number of home devices. The new 6 GHz band is reserved exclusively for WiFi 6E devices, so there’s no interference from other legacy devices. This makes it ideal for use as a stable backhaul connection. You can also select the wired Ethernet for the backhaul connection between nodes. Alternatively, you can choose automatic mode and let ZenWiFi Pro ET12 choose the best connection type based on your environment. The choice is always yours!
