ASUS Republic of Gamers (ROG) unveiled the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000, a tri-band WiFi 7 gaming router, at Computex 2024 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This router introduces advanced network capabilities tailored for demanding gaming and streaming applications. The ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 router features tri-band WiFi 7, supporting speeds up to 19 Gbps, facilitated by new technologies such as 320 MHz channels, 4096-QAM, and Multi-Link Operation. It is highlighted as the world’s first gaming router with Automatic Frequency Coordination (AFC). This feature assesses the WiFi environment to select the least congested channel within the 6 GHz band, potentially increasing transmit power significantly compared to other low-power indoor networking devices.

In terms of connectivity, the router boasts considerable wired capabilities, providing up to 31 Gbps through its multiple Ethernet ports. This includes dual 10 Gb Ethernet ports and four 2.5 Gb Ethernet ports, ensuring extensive bandwidth and reliable connections for both home and gaming environments.

The router integrates ASUS-exclusive technologies like Guest Network Pro and Gaming Network. Guest Network Pro offers enhanced network management and segmentation capabilities, supporting various network needs such as kid-friendly content, IoT devices, and guest access, all manageable via distinct SSIDs or VLANs. The Gaming Network feature simplifies the setup for gamers by combining all gaming-related functionalities into a single SSID, thereby reducing the need for individual device configuration.



Additionally, the GT-BE1900 supports Triple-Level Game Acceleration, a feature that optimizes the routing of game data packets to prioritize gaming traffic from the device to the game server, enhancing overall gaming performance. The Smart AiMesh technology, updated to leverage WiFi 7 capabilities and AI-driven processes, offers improved wireless backhaul that smartly assigns high-demand packets to the faster WiFi band, ensuring smooth gaming and streaming. For more robust network requirements, the router's 10 Gb Ethernet LAN port offers a dedicated wired backhaul, enhancing the mesh network’s connectivity.

The launch of the ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 also coincides with the release of updated features across ASUS and ROG’s WiFi 7 router lineups, including the ROG Rapture GT-BE98 Pro and ASUS ZenWiFi models. These enhancements ensure that users can benefit from Multi-Link Operation and other advanced features like the improved Smart AiMesh and enhanced security measures provided by the updated Guest Network Pro technology.

Update: The ROG Rapture GT-BE19000 is available in Germany, Austria and Switzerland at a recommended retail price of 759.95 EUR / CHF incl. VAT
