StarTech Wi-Fi 6e USB Adapter/Dongle

Add 802.11ax Wi-Fi connectivity to a computer via USB with tri-band support for 2.4/5/6GHz frequencies.

This USB Wi-Fi 6E network adapter connects to desktop or laptop computers, enhancing their capabilities and enabling high-speed, low-latency wireless communication in the 6GHz band with combined tri-band speeds of up to 5400 Mbps.

The USB Wi-Fi dongle supports Wi-Fi 6/6E, operating in the less congested 6GHz frequency for reduced interference and enhanced speeds of up to 2402 Mbps, ideal for latency-sensitive applications. It is backward compatible with 802.11 b, g, n, and ac wireless standards in both the 5GHz (2400 Mbps) and 2.4GHz (574 Mbps) bands, ensuring seamless integration with existing networks for smooth transitions and maximum flexibility.

The USB base is magnetized and equipped with a 3.8ft (1.1m) built-in cable, allowing for flexible placement, which helps with signal reception and minimizes interference. Additionally, the USB cradle is rubberized for improved grip when placed on flat, non-metallic surfaces.

The wireless NIC features a foldable antenna that helps improve signal quality and range by focusing wireless signals directly to the device. It also adds convenience to mobile setups by maintaining a compact design when not in use.

WPA3 provides strong encryption for Wi-Fi password security. OFDMA and MU-MIMO features enhance network performance by reducing latency and improving data transmission efficiency.

OFDMA optimizes data transmission by dividing channels into smaller sub-channels, reducing latency and increasing efficiency, especially in crowded environments. Meanwhile, MU-MIMO allows simultaneous data transmission to multiple devices, maximizing throughput and minimizing wait times.
