ASUS ROG Rapture Quad-Band WiFi 6E Gaming Router - GT-AXE16000

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 bands; and 6 GHz - with 160 MHz channels in the 5 GHz and 6 GHz bands to bring you the fastest speeds possible.

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.

WiFi 6E - 6 GHz band

WiFi 6E gives you up to seven 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.

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.

Built for the ultimate speed

ROG Rapture GT-AXE16000 is powered by the latest 2.0 GHz quad-core 64-bit CPU and WiFi chipsets; giving it the performance to handle even the most demanding gaming networks. Maximum network throughput is increased by up to 18% for lightning-fast responsiveness; accelerated data transfers and an optimized gaming experience.

Built for the ultimate coverage

ASUS RangeBoost Plus is the latest; most powerful version of our renowned RangeBoost technology; which can improve coverage and WiFi performance significantly compared to other models without RangeBoost. By using next-gen flagship Broadcom WiFi chipsets with the exclusive ASUS RF technology; RangeBoost Plus leverages multiple upgraded ASUS features that improve WiFi signal range and overall coverage by up to 38%.

To infinity and beyond

For the ultimate style; ROG Rapture GT-AXE16000 has an infinity mirror on the top of the case that adds a unique touch to the multiple Aura RGB lighting effects. GT-AXE16000 shows your true style while gaming

Triple-level game acceleration

GT-AXE16000 boosts your gaming traffic every step of the way; from your PC all the way to the game server. The exclusive triple-level game acceleration stabilizes your connections to prevent jitter; reduce lag; lower ping and increase speed for amazing gaming experiences.

Game without boundaries

VPN Fusion lets you run both a VPN and an ordinary internet connection - simultaneously! So even if other network users need to use a VPN; you can still enjoy maximum gaming speeds.

Complete security for everyone and everything

For total peace of mind; GT-AXE16000 includes ASUS AiProtection Pro; including the latest WPA3 security protocol and advanced Parental Controls. The automatic; regularly updated security signatures help protect all your devices and personal data from internet threats.

Make free WiFi secure; wherever you are

The free public WiFi you find in coffee shops; restaurants; hotels; airports and so on is rarely secure. ASUS Instant Guard uses VPN technology to create a secure data tunnel to your GT-AXE16000; adding rock-solid security to any public WiFi connections you use.
